But I love most of these high school sitcoms- so I don't have an issue with it.
I'm with you, I LOVE City Guys and yes, I do not see it as an imitator to Martin, Living Single or The Parkers

Every episode of City Guys was TRULY MUST SEE TV and it taught people like me a lot about life's issues

City Guys took the style from other Peter Engel Shows like Saved by the Bell and California Dreams as well as other shows like The Archies and Happy Days

and I, too LOVE High School Sitcoms
