Close
Although the show was not a major success with the ratings due to The WB being a relatively new network, the show did help launch Foxx's acting career while also relaunching Garrett Morris' career after his 1994 shooting. It also served as a launch pad for Beauvais, who later starred in ABC's NYPD Blue.
