On August 22, 1993 Living Single broadcast the first of 118 episodes on FOX. We were introduced to a Brooklyn brownstone and twentysomethings Khadijah and Synclaire James, Regine Hunter, Maxine Shaw, Kyle Barker and Overton Jones as they lived, worked, loved and got married over the next five television seasons.
Was it really 20 years ago that the show debuted?
