Brothers Keenen and Damon Wayans created, wrote and starred in the program. The show was produced by Ivory Way Productions in association with 20th Century Fox Television and was taped before a live studio audience at stage 7 at the Fox Television Center on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood, California.

The show also starred the previously unknown actor/comedians Jim Carrey, Jamie Foxx, and David Alan Grier.
