From 2001-2005 there was this show starring Damon Wayans and Tisha Campbell.

Showed a prosperous Middle Class Black family in Connecticut, with the patriarch Michael owning his own trucking business and the wife having her own corporate job.

Seemed to portray the American dream well to the audience

  6. I remember it. I didn’t know it was suppose to take place in Connecticut, or that Micheal has a trucking business. I just remember that Junior had a wife and a kid even though he’s on the intellectual level of his kid.

  9. The “Don’t mix citrus and dairy!” bit they did one episode really cracked me up for some reason to the point where I still vividly remember it to this day. But, yea, I watched it regularly when it was running.

  19. Yes I loved this show. I hated how they made 2/3 kids the stereotypical dumbasses. I think it works to have one dumb kid not two.

    I appreciated that even though Jay and Michael were teen parents, they worked hard and made a nice life for themselves.

  21. The only thing I remember from that show is the punchline “I don’t want the super salad, I want the regular one.”
