For ‘90s kids who grew up watching Family Matters, get ready for a mini reunion brought to us by Lifetime.
Steve Urkel won’t be making an appearance, but we will get to see Carl (Reginald VelJohnson) and Harriette Winslow (Jo Marie Payton) reunited on-screen in Saturday’s The Flight Before Christmas.
The Lifetime movie stars The Big Bang Theory’s Mayim Bialik and actor Ryan McPartlin, who are stranded in Montana on Christmas Eve due to flight issues, E! Online reports.
Payton didn’t play Harriette in the last season of Family Matters, so this is a big reunion for her and Vel Johnson. The show ran from 1989 to 1998.
They both continued to work after the show wrapped, with Vel Johnson landing roles on shows like Mike & Molly and Hart of Dixie, and Payton on Will & Grace and Disney's The Proud Family.
Now if only the Winslow's neighbor, Steve Urkel, had a part in The Flight Before Christmas. Sigh.
