TV Series Review - The Wayans Bros.: The Complete Series


The Wayans Bros.: The Complete Series




About the Series
Shawn Wayans (In Living Color, Scary Movie, White Chicks) and Marlon Wayans (Scary Movie, In Living Color, White Chicks, The Ladykillers) — real-life brothers and members of the prolific Wayans family —star in this hilarious and physical comedy series as Shawn and Marlon Williams, two very different brothers who live together in New York City while searching for success. As the series begins, Shawn wants to be promoted from delivery man to dispatcher to impress his girlfriend, Lisa (Lela Rochon – Waiting to Exhale, Any Given Sunday). Marlon works in the diner operated by his and Shawn’s father, Pops (John Witherspoon – Friday, The Tracy Morgan Show, Boomerang, The Boondocks). The two brothers often get into trouble with their moneymaking schemes — but it’s always entertaining to watch! The series also features numerous notable guest stars.
 
My Take on the Series

The Wayans Bros.: The Complete Series is pure comedy gold! I grew up watching reruns, so having the entire collection to watch whenever I want is a dream. Shawn and Marlon’s chemistry is unbeatable, and their antics never fail to crack me up. Marlon’s over-the-top energy mixed with Shawn’s smooth, straight-man act makes for the perfect balance.

John Witherspoon as Pops is hilarious—his one-liners alone are worth watching! The only downside is the lack of bonus features, but the episodes themselves make up for it. If you love classic ‘90s sitcoms, this set is a must-have for your collection!
