Christopher Daniel Barnes, Eddie Griffin, Ron Pearson, Malcolm-Jamal Warner, and Karen Malina White in Malcolm & Eddie (1996)

Apparently, opposites do attract. Malcolm and Eddie are as different as one can imagine, but they're best friends who manage to be roommates as well as co-workers without killing each other.Apparently, opposites do attract.

Trivia
In an Archive of American Television interview, Malcolm-Jamal Warner revealed that making this show frustrated him. He felt that the show's producers were pandering to Black stereotypes in order to cater to UPN's urban audience, and after his experience with 'The Cosby Show' (1984), he thought that was unnecessary; they could do better. Despite this, and tensions between him and co-star Eddie Griffin, he stayed on, hoping that the show's modest success would guarantee a good syndication deal once the show reached 100 episodes. Unfortunately, it was canceled 11 episodes short of that goal.

Probably The Best Sitcom Ever

Starring one of my favourite comedians Eddie Griffin and the sometimes amusing Malcolm-Jamal Warner who you may remember from the cosby show as Theo and also co-starring the late Jaime Cardriche who tragically died in on July 28th 2000, This Show Is Based around Malcolms Pub 'McGee's' In which Eddie sometimes helps out and works there part-time but the two always seem to get into trouble due to Eddie jumping to conclusions.
