4. Steve Urkel ('Family Matters')
Steve Urkel, the comical character portrayed by Jaleel White on Family Matters, was the nerdy misfit that was the center of most of the show's storylines. He was the next-door neighbor to the Winslow family and had a high-pitched, nasally voice that was hilariously ridiculous.
Urkel sported signature over-sized glasses and suspenders that gave him one of the most iconic nerd looks of all time. Family Matters ran from 1989-1998.
3. George Costanza ('Seinfeld')

He was often getting tangled up in ridiculous scenarios or crafting his own crazy schemes.
George's short fuse and hot-tempered nature created some unforgettable "George moments." Not only is George Costanza one of the greatest characters of the '90s, but also he is one of the most memorable characters on TV of all time.
2. Will Smith ('The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air')
The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air was Hollywood superstar Will Smith's breakout role and his character on the series was one of the most lovable jokesters on TV at the time.
The fictional Will Smith was constantly driving his Uncle Phil crazy and pulling pranks on his cousin Carlton on the series which ran from 1990-1996. There was an undeniable chemistry between Smith and Alfonso Ribeiro, who portrayed Carlton, and everything they did on screen seemed to work with audiences. Not to mention, the show had one of the most memorable theme songs of all time, which was performed by Smith.
1. Chandler Bing ('Friends')
