'Family Matters' stars call out Carl Winslow for never going to work: 'Just policing the house'

"Girl, I want to talk to you about your daddy, who, apparently, is working from home all the time,"

"At least he's got his uniform on at home. Maybe he's just policing the house."

"My entire career is based on playing officers of the law: Die Hard, Turner & Hooch, Family Matters, a couple TV movies,"

"I have this image of being this upstanding kind of guy, which is not a bad image to have - I'd rather have that."

Carl Winslow, played by Reginald VelJohnson, frequently appeared at home wearing his police uniform despite being a Chicago police officer. Telma Hopkins questioned why he was always at home, and Kellie Shanygne Williams suggested he might be 'policing the house.' Family Matters ran nine seasons from 1989 to 1998 and featured wacky domestic adventures rather than serious crime. Carl Winslow valued order and rules. VelJohnson portrayed police officers in multiple projects, including Die Hard and Turner & Hooch, and had played a policeman eight times by 2016. VelJohnson said his career was based on playing officers and accepted the upstanding image.
