[regarding his appearance on "Family Matters"] I was Steve Urkel's school nemesis, Dexter Thornhill. It was supposed to be a recurring role and I was really happy. It was really funny and I had such a great time doing it. Rumor has it Jaleel White, who played Urkel, was a little jealous of the attention I got and I never recurred again. The writer who wrote my part was fired as well, from what I understand. That's what folklore says. Jaleel and I have never talked since. Show less «
