DVD cover art for The Wayans Bros.: The Complete First Season

Film:
DVD:

Created by Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Leslie Ray, David Simon
Starring Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, John Witherspoon, Lela Rochon

Features:

All thirteen first season episodes

Released by: Warner Brothers.
Rating: NR.
Region: 1
Anamorphic: N/A; episodes appear in their original 1.33:1 format.

My Advice: Hardcore fans of the show or of the Brothers Wayans should own.

It's sibling hijinks mixed with some odd couple action as two brothers (Los Wayans), share an apartment in Harlem, one (Shawn) a bit more sane, working as a deliveryman. The other (Marlon) is a bit crazier, always coming up with a new idea or scheme.
