Jaleel White reflected on his relationship with Bill Cosby during his episode on TV One s Uncensored series. While speaking about his former mentor, he revealed that the two had a falling out before speaking about the disgraced comedian s incarceration.
The Family Matters star said he and Cosby developed a relationship after he was almost cast as Rudy on The Cosby Show. While the role was given to Keisha Knight-Pulliam, White and Cosby maintained a relationship.

Steve Urkel is something of the anti-Fonzi or a cool Screech, depending on your interpretation. The annoying next-door neighbor of the Winslow family for 215 episodes of
Family Matters, Jaleel White’s Urkel ruined parties, Christmases, family gatherings, an episode of
American Gladiators, a trip to outer space, and his school’s chemistry lab (allegedly). He was also the show’s breakout star, inspiring toys, lunchboxes, and catchphrases like “Did I do that? and “Got any cheese?” (That last one made him the bane of parents of six-year-olds everywhere). But apparently, the Winslows weren’t only sick of Steve on the show; they were tired of him in real life, too.
