. The official logline states that the show “follows Joe , a cop, his wife Marcy, a nurse, and Joe’s partner Crunchy. Joe and Marcy are young, hip, urban parents with old school values who are willing to sacrifice for their kids and have some laughs while doing it!”
The character Joe is further described as “a devoted husband , son, father and Philadelphia police officer. He is also a proud Black man and often feels pressured to be flawless in each of his roles, especially in light of controversies surrounding cops. He is a charming and exuberant role model in his community. Joe loves his wife and family, but does come up short in hilarious and endearing ways that keep audiences cheering for him.
The role would mark a return to playing a police officer for Crews, as he previously played Sgt. Terry Jeffords throughout the eight-season run of the NBC comedy “Brooklyn Nine-Nine.” He currently hosts the NBC competition series “America’s Got Talent.” His other TV acting roles include “Everybody Hates Chris,” and “Are We There Yet?,” while his film roles include the “Expendables” franchise as well as “Idicoracy,” “Sorry to Bother You,” and “White Chicks.
A TV version of the comic has been in the works since at least 2014, when Kapital announced plans to develop a live-action version with 20th Century Fox. This new version of the show was first reported as being in development at CBS in June 2022.
