Kenya Barris & Mike Epps Reunite For CBS Comedy About Estranged Brothers Forced To Coexist After Altadena Wildfire

Kenya Barris is heading back to network television with a CBS comedy starring Mike Epps.

Written by Barris and executive produced by Aaron Kaplan, the multi-camera series is co-produced by BET Studios and CBS Studios. It follows two estranged Black brothers who reunite to sell their late grandmother’s home after the Eaton wildfire devastates Altadena.

When they discover her caretaker co-owns the property and refuses to sell, the brothers are forced to live together, confront their past, and explore themes of legacy and family.

The community of Altadena continues to rebuild after the Eaton wildfire devastated the community earlier this year.

Only Epps is confirmed to act in the project, while Barris joins as executive producer through Khalabo Ink Society. The show marks a reunion between the two after Epps’ role in “You People.” Epps also stars in Netflix’s “The Upshaws,” while Barris continues developing several projects, including a Richard Pryor limited series and “Group Chat” with Kim Kardashian for Hulu.

TJB Crew, will we be watching this one as a family?
