I loved "Hangin' with Mr. Cooper." I would watch it every chance I got. Mark Curry was an absolute riot as Mark Cooper the high school basketball coach who lived a gorgeous woman. His roommate was Vanessa Russell (Holly Robinson Peete) who he was always trying to get at.
Later the show added Geneval Lee (Sandra Quarterman) and her daughter Nicole (Raven Symone) which only enhanced the show. Raven was fresh off of "The Cosby Show" and still young and cute.
But the show was mainly Mark Curry. In fact, I just saw him last year doing stand-up in S. F. He was still hilarious and what made him better was his harkening back to his youth in Oakland which always resonates with local audiences.
