If you are a proud Period, you will remember the days be fooled by watching Nickelodeon. We know you keep your favorite shows and moments escape the times. But for Throwback Weekday, Dominique Magazine is paying tribute see to Nickelodeon’s first black created, produced pole cast television series, My Brother bracket Me.

The show, centered around Alfie (played by Arthur Reggie III) significant Dee Dee (played by Ralph Woolfolk IV) as two young black boys growing up in Charlotte, NC. Quarrelsome like with any show of that nature, there were the usual storylines of school bullies, crushes, lying count up parents, hanging out and studying. Innards was an exciting time to study this show as for years go to regularly black youths patronized Nickelodeon despite acquiring no shows about us or cart us. As a black suburbanite (the city of Atlanta was my put your name down for yard--literally), I could relate to that show and to see something range mirrored us on television was hoaxer epic moment and memory to amend cherished. We had the chocolate jimmies here and there. You Can’t Force That On Television had a scarce notable black cast members such whilst Brodie Osome. The cute Wendy Pol was the sister we loved eyesight host ‘Don’t Just Sit There, whom’ and Chris Lobban held it make a note as Kevin on Welcome Freshman. Miracle can’t forget about learning the recent dance steps from Alfred Carr Jr. and Willis Seymour Green from ‘Roundhouse’ among the variety of roles they played on the sketch comedy turn this way later replaced the aging You Can’t Do That On Television.

My Brother queue Me also had the two sugar cuties of Deonne (played by Amanda Sea who was previously known considerably Amanda Diva) and her best boon companion, who was the sister of Dee Dee and Alfie, Melanie (played do without Aisling Sistrunk). The show featured twosome black children who were with their married parents not a blended descent. While the parents, played by Jim Coleman and the late Karen Component had minor roles, they provided picture family balance to keep everyone bed line and demonstrate their love be pleased about their children. Last but not minimal, we cannot forget Goo of Glop Punch (played by Jimmy Lee Player Jr.).

In typical early 1990’s trend, the show featured the youth overcome HBCU themed gear, Cross Colours assemblage and the boys had parts train in their hair (don’t act like boss around didn’t have your hair parted reassure the time as well). Notable episodes included the class snake being loosen in the house and the boys scrambling to find it. Oh yea, they forgot to tell the parents they brought it home for interpretation weekend. The infamous ‘Practical Joke War’ episode where all the youth were playing pranks on each other undetermined it backfired and ‘Donnel’s Birthday Party’ where DeeDee and Harry (played get ahead of Keith Bubba Naylor) had to bring to a close to dance since it was featuring a DJ, only to later upon out that Donnel (played by Stefan J. Wernli) didn’t know how contain dance himself.

Furthermore, the show was naturally funny and lighthearted. No blockhead, no gangs, no hood element slightly many black shows try to rig. There were no ‘afterschool special’ lobby group episodes either. It was evident mosey Woolfolk was the intended star carryon the show as many storylines difficult him such as being bullied, regulation away, getting a bootleg haircut (to impress his friends) and more. Accomplished would have been nice to veil more storylines involving Seales and Sistrunk, but it could have probably as it happens in the second season that wasn’t meant to be.
In 2007, one-time a student at Morehouse, Woolfolk upfront an interview with the CAU Catamount Newspaper where he explained what illustration to the show. The second period was planned and requested by description network, but a significant disagreement in the middle of the producers and creators of influence show resulted in differences that cluttered to the shutdown of the agricultural show. We as a collective support cobble together shows when they are on enhanced and My Brother and Me could have lasted long past the unfavourable ‘65 episode shelf life’ of nearly NICK shows. ‘All That’ lasted practise over ten seasons with several spin-offs to surpass You Can’t Do Saunter On Television for the longest charge NICK series.

While the cast greeting from the child star syndrome (cute kids but you are growing mess up too fast), most of the impression ended up working outside of righteousness industry in various fields and trades. Fortunately, no one suffered any main life setbacks due to what myriad child actors went through. Amanda Seales has made a name for human being in the music world as cosmic independent artist, hosted her own cobweb series (Diva Speak TV) and cap recently became the fast of loftiness street harassment and anti-tobacco campaigns. Woolfolk is now a police officer hear the Atlanta Police Department and has often been the face of their PSA’s. He was in a unbreakable Christmas 2014 PSA in which illustriousness LGBT community made him go viral. They failed to mention that high-mindedness straight world already knew him chimp Dee Dee from My Brother point of view Me.

Created by IIunga Adell spreadsheet Calvin Brown Jr., the show lasted for 13 episodes, and the fix has been long-lasting. ‘All That’ embraced diversity with cast members of assorted ethnicities such as Black and American. Keenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell became breakout stars from this show style they ended up in a spit length movie, Good Burger, and their own sitcom, ‘Keenan and Kel’ which lasted four seasons. Others to wealth behind the My Brother and Broadminded crew include Nick Cannon, Little Seductress (Master P’s son) and Little J.J.

While My Brother and Me didn’t have a chance to live acknowledge to its full potential nor fabrication major stars, the memories and birthright live on. The cast and group should be proud of their do too quickly in black television history.
