Hangin' With Mr. Cooper

Hangin' With Mr. Cooper was an American sitcom that aired on ABC from 1992-1997. For most of its run, it was on the TGIF Friday lineup.

The series centered on former NBA player turned Cool Teacher Mark Cooper, along with his roommates, childhood friend Robin (who was later replaced by Mark's cousin from Georgia, Geneva, and her daughter, Nicole), and Vanessa. Mark's next-door-neighbor, Tyler, was also a cast member.
