Hangin' with Mr. Cooper - 'The Complete 1st Season' is Coming to DVD at Last!

Almost-was NBA player Mark Cooper (Mark Curry) is done with school and just starting out, so it's a good thing he's got a place to call home alongside two roomies, childhood pal Robin Dumars (Dawnn Lewis) and her other bestie, Vanessa Russell (Holly Robinson). Living in Oakland, Mark gets a substitute teaching job in nearby San Francisco thanks to music teacher Robin, but quickly learns that he's behind the curve when it comes to controlling a class of first graders.

So it's a good thing Full House's Michelle Tanner (Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen) is on hand to help break him in during the second episode. Other guests having some hang time include Charles Barkley, Marcus Allen, Naomi Campbell, John Stamos, Chris Tucker, Shawn Wayans and a fourth wall-breaking Alan Thicke, all on hand to help or hinder Mark on the way to his new dream of being a school basketball coach, in this 22-Episode Collection.

Comedian Mark Curry (It's Showtime at the Apollo) starred as NBA-player-turned-substitute-teacher "Mr. Mark Cooper" in the 5-season ABC-aired sitcom from the '90s which also starred Dawnn Lewis (A Different World), Holly Robinson Peete (21 Jump Street), Nell Carter (Gimme a Break!), Raven-Symoné (That's So Raven, The Cosby Show), and Saundra Quarterman (All My Children), with Don Cheadle (House of Lies, Iron Man 2, Captain America: Civil War) having a recurring role during the second season.

Now the Warner Archive Collection is announcing an August 2nd MOD (manufacture on demand) release for Hangin' with Mr. Cooper - The Complete 1st Season on DVD! Priced at just $29.99 SRP, you'll get 22 episodes on 3 discs. Besides the guest stars listed in the studio description quoted above, also look for Chris Tucker, Countess Vaughn, Leslie Easterbrook, the NBA's Tim Hardaway and other "Warriors," and Marsha Warfield.
