this is the show that made me want to live in new york and have a stoop, which i eventually did. my favorite episode was when doug and his dad were in a class together. doug kept saying “malfeasants” which i just misspelled but it was hilarious. i love when people remember this show fondly. it was wonderful and we were all in love with flex.

I remember this show. I think there was an episode where Doug E. Doug was mad at his mom for appearing nude in a play in college. I liked it.

And My Wife and Kids did have a good run. I remember it's ratings were good enough for ABC to air an hour of reruns on the weekends. I don't know why it was cancelled.

I remembered when this was originally on and I’m sorry that I didn’t watch it. I had heard about it airing on TV One… unfortunately, I don’t have that channel “where I live”.

Good point about “Where I Live” most likely having a successful run if there had been a UPN. I would add “My Wife and Kids” (2001-2005) to the small list of ABC black family comedies that have had successful runs in the last few years.

I think you and I are the only Black women on planet earth that have had a crush on Doug E. Doug
