Four successful men find themselves easing into long-term relationships, but they're not all that comfortable about it, in this intelligent comedy-drama. Terry (
Shemar Moore), Jackson (
Morris Chestnut), Brian (
Bill Bellamy), and Derrick (
D.L. Hughley) are four close friends who get together once a week to play basketball and compare notes on their problems with women. And as it turns out, they have a lot to say in that area. Terry has just gotten engaged to BeBe (
Susan Dalian), who is more than a bit controlling. Jackson has a deep fear of commitment, symbolized by a recurring dream in which he's attacked by women wearing wedding gowns; what's more, he's started seeing Denise (
Gabrielle Union), who he learns once had a fling with his dad (
Clifton Powell). Brian is a lawyer who has discovered his next court date will see him pleading a case in front of a judge who used to be his girlfriend (
Angelle Brooks). And Derrick's marriage to Sheila (
Tamala Jones) is falling apart at the seams.
The Brothers also features one-time
Jeffersons regular
Marla Gibbs, and
Jennifer Lewis as Jackson's mother, who may be giving his father a second chance after many years apart.
