Remember Judy Winslow? I know I do. She was the youngest of the Winslow children. She never really did anything on the show. The stories always kinda revolved around Eddie and Laura, but she was always there. At least she was up until season 5. Then all of a sudden she disappeared. So what the hell happened to her? Was she kidnapped? Did she run away from home? It was never really explained.
The Winslow's didn't even seem to notice. I always thought that was kind of strange. Harriet and Carl are lucky that the Casey Anthony law didn't exist back again. Somebody should check Carl's trunk. I suspect foul play. They clearly didn't report her missing. Shame on Carl, I would expect better from a police officer. Lieutenant Murtaw would be disappointed.
I actually did a little research on this topic. Apparently Judy's manager was asking the producers for more money, and the producers weren't messing around. They were like " Oh you want more money well guess what you don't even do shit on the show, so no we will not pay you more, and how about you're fired."
About 6 years later Judy was addicted to painkillers and starring in low class porn films. Oh the downfalls of being a child actor. Corey Feldman, Corey Haim even the chick who played Stephanie Tanner had a meth problem.
It was a shame about Judy though. I wonder if the producers ever felt guilty about what happened to her. They could have at least played her off the show properly. Instead of just having the Winslow's pretend she never existed, and hoping the viewers would forget too. They should've just had Judy sitting on the couch one day watching TV. Then Urkel comes over with his new crossbow. He's eager to show it off to Eddie and Waldo when all of a sudden.....Whoops......Judy's dead. At first the studio audience would be in shock, but then after Steve tugs on his suspenders and says " Did I do that" the crowd erupts in laughter.
