In doing so we’ll be challenging ourselves to erase any knowledge of future episodes so we can deliver an unbiased opinion. At the end of each show we’ll tell you if this is a show we would green light or cancel. Tune in to find out which mega shows wouldn’t make the cut, what forgettable mistakes we give a pass, and who started exactly where they should be.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-25T18:18:49.691888+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-s1e1-podcast-3715607"},"episode":{"title":"S1E1: Where I Live","slug":"s1e1-where-i-live","published_at":"2026-05-14T07:35:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-s1e1-podcast-3715607/s1e1-where-i-live","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-s1e1-podcast-3715607","url":"https://TheS1E1pod.podbean.com/e/s1e1-where-i-live/","audio_url":"https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/3facmabh3u6mqrkw/S1E1WhereILive.mp3","summary":"\"Where I Live\" is a sitcom that aired on ABC's TGIF block in 1993. The series follows Doug (Doug E. Doug), a Trinidadian-American teenager navigating life in Harlem alongside his best friends Reggie (Flex Alexander) and Malcolm (Shaun Baker). Inspired by Doug E. Doug’s own upbringing, the show navigates school, family expectations, and the everyday chaos of city life, with laid-back humor that gave the show a distinctly authentic personality. Critics praised Where I Live for its authentic voice and realistic portrayal of urban teenage life. While the series struggled in the ratings and was short-lived, it earned respect for tackling real issues without losing its humor. Is this forgotten TGIF gem a hidden classic or just another sitcom lost in the shuffle of the ‘90s? Listen as the S1E1 boys head uptown and break down the pilot episode, \"Occupant\". Starring: Doug E. Doug, Flex Alexander, Shaun Baker, Lorraine Toussaint, Yunoka Doyle, Jason Bose Smith, Sullivan Walker, & Tammy Townsend www.S1E1POD.com Instagram & X (Twitter): @S1E1POD","meta_description":"\"Where I Live\" is a sitcom that aired on ABC's TGIF block in 1993.
