Charon121: Why do people hate Steve Urkel so much? It's not supposed to be a serious character, he is an ironic nerd stereotype taken to an extreme and then some.
The same reason people hate Fran Drescher, Gilbert Gotfried and Ray Romano, they've got some of the most annoying voices ever captured on tape.
Telika: So that character wasn't unwatchably annoying only because the irritatingly trying-too-hard french dubbing ?
Nope, I have a hard time conceiving of how that could be any worse than the real character.
The kicker is that he wasn't supposed to be the main character when the show started.

DadJoke007: I dislike Steve Urkle because the character feels forced/fake and is annoying in every way possible. It's painful to watch, it's like the kid in class who tries hard to be funny all the time while falling flat on his face repeatedly. Most people I know love Steve Urkle though.
Did I do that?
