Line 4:
''The PJs'' (Short for "The Projects") was a show on FOX, produced and created by [[Eddie Murphy]]. The show centered around Thurgood Stubbs, the superintendent of a housing project in Detroit, who was voiced by Murphy. The show was somewhat unique at the time, using claymation when most animated primetime comedy shows still relied on more traditional animation methods. Lasting three seasons (1999-2001), it now reruns on [[Adult Swim]].
