This Show Is My Favorite Show On Earth!!!!!!

This was my favorite show on earth!!! I can't believe they stopped airing it on TV!!! It was so funny, and I think Matt Lawrence is the HOTTEST guy alive!!! I hope they start showing it on Disney again like they did "Sister, Sister". I only have like 10 episodes on tape, so I gotta see some different ones! If you ever saw this show, you would know what I'm talking about!!!
