'''''[[My Brother Andand Me''']]'' was a black [[Kid Com]] that ran for only one season (1994-1995) on Nickelodeon. The star is Alfie Parker, the [[Straight Man]] older brother, Derek 'Dee Dee' Parker, the [[Annoying Younger Sibling]], and their bored sister Melanie. Alfie's best friend is Milton 'Goo' Berry, an [[The Ace|Ace]] who often tries to sweet-talk the uninterested Melanie. Their parents, Roger and Jennifer Parker, are your typical sitcom parents.
 
It is a typical [[Slice of Life]] show, with the main conflicts being Alfie and Goo's struggle with Dee Dee and his friends, Goo's unrequited love for Melanie and disdain for her friend Deonne, and the brothers' attempts to keep out of trouble with their parents.
