Hang with Mr. CurryHes left the sitcoms behind; stand-ups his thing these days.By Raina McLeodPublished on July 31, 2008 at 3:02amWe love the new millennium, but we miss the Nineties one-dollar gas prices, gaudy fashions, and most of all TGIF. The sitcoms that made up ABCs all-important block of funny changed from time to time, but Hangin with Mr. Cooper shone bright for a few years, drawing viewers in with the promise of a Threes Company-style show with some added flava. Mark Curry was the star, playing the lovable and kinda goofy title character, a basketball player and high school teacher. He lumbered into our hearts as a Mr. Nice Guy and roommate to two women and a baby, but his stand-up routine is decidedly less saccharine. Maybe youll miss the PG-rated jokery, but were thinking that during his stint at the Miami Improv from Friday through Sunday, youll be glad to peep his dirty side.
