If you were watching TV in the ’90s, there were a gang of African-American sitcoms to choose from. We were blessed with shows like Family Matters, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Martin, Living Single and Sister, Sister just to name a few. But, of all of the most beloved ones that debuted in the decade, The Wayans Bros. always ranks near the top as a fan favorite.

Love the new intro Juicy Pop! When you think about it, the Wayans family loved them some John Witherspoon. John Witherspoon was in two movies with Keenan, I’m gonna git you sucka and Hollywood shuffle. It was right that both Marlon and Shawn wanted them to play their father on their show. The Wayans Bros. still holds up and hilarious to this day.

John Witherspoon was beloved by the industry. He worked with a lot of big names more than once such as: Robert Townsend Eddie Murphy Regina King Bebe Drake Gary Anthony Williams Martin Lawrence Ice Cube Anna Maria Horsford

That is correct. John Witherspoon is like a family friend to Keenan and Robert Townsend. They were a duo in producing and film making and tried to keep certain people around. Pops was the best and only real person that needed that role.

Was so glad when they finally put ALL 5 seasons on DVD! I hated when WB or whatever companies would only put out the first season of shows like Living Single, Wayans Bros., Hanging With Mr. Cooper, etc. and if the sales weren't high enough then they wouldn't put out Season 2 onward. Mainly due to the pilot seasons for shows like this back in the day were never the BEST season of any particular series because they are finding their footing. Sometimes we'd see S1 characters replaced, new set locations, etc. and the chemistry between the actors sometimes gets way stronger due to better writing in the following season!

People don’t give them enough credit for their contributions to film/tv/comedy etc. Wayans Bros. is still funny af & it’s one of my comfort shows. 😅😊❤ I saw both Shawn & Marlon in 2016 & 2017 respectively. Shawn’s standup was funnier tbh lol. Marlon did a meet-and-greet (if you bought a t-shirt 😂😂). He was so sweet!🥹 He gave me a hug & said “wassup baby” & we took a picture together. His cologne smelled great. I’ve always joked for years that Marlon is my husband 😂😂😂 I admire his work & he fine as hell 😍 All the brothers are handsome actually… 🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂😏 Love the new clips in the intro❤

The Wayans Bros is my favorite sitcom of all time. Shawn Wayans and Marlon Wayans are the funniest of the family. The intro of the show is still a classic "We're Brothers. were happy and were singing and were colored.... Give me a high five". Shawn would always smack Marlon in the head and call him STUPID, Pops would take off his white belt trying to whoop two grown men with thise white shoes LOL. Lela Rochan and Paula Jai Parker was so fine R.I.P. Mitch Mullany, Ja'Net Dubios and John Witherspoon A.K.A. Pops A.K.A. Mr BANG BANG BANG 🙏💐🕊
