Airing on ABC between 2001 and 2005, "My Wife and Kids" successfully merged Damon Wayans with a family-driven sitcom format that placed him at the head of a household in suburban Connecticut. Though Wayans is best known for edgy humor, as seen on shows like "In Living Color," he proves to be an ideal TV dad — equal part caring, chaotic, and clueless — as trucking company owner Michael Kyle, who teams with day trader wife Janet, or "Jay" (Tisha Campbell), to try and corral their three energetic kids. The episodes cover the family's frequent changes, which include a long courtship by son Michael Jr. (George O. Gore II) of girlfriend and eventual wife Vanessa (played by Meagan Good and later Brooklyn Sudano).
An awards magnet throughout its five-season run, "My Wife and Kids" provided a springboard for greater fame and entertainment opportunities for some of the cast members and extended the popularity of others, all of whom have continued their screen careers in various ways. Read on to find out what the cast of "My Wife and Kids" is doing today (spoilers ahead).
