Hangin' With Mr. Cooper (1992-1997)






Ex-basketball player turned high school teacher/coach Mark Cooper moves in with his childhood friend Robin and her best friend Vanessa to help pay the rent.  Robin eventually moved out and Mark's cousin Geneva moved in with her precocious daughter Nicole.  Mark and Vanessa developed a romance which resulted in an engagement.  

The pilot episode for Hangin' With Mr. Cooper used the set from the recently canceled Growing Pains (1985-1992).  It joined ABC's TGIF block for a few seasons and had several theme songs during its run.  I'm partial to the first season's, being a big En Vogue fan.  The series finale was mostly pre-empted on the West Coast due to Princess Diana's death and was not seen again until syndication.
