A warm, energetic sitcom built on sibling affection and comedic contrast, where the brothers' bond is the reliable center despite their constant bickering.

Brothers Shawn and Marlon are on the lookout for money and success, though the two are complete opposites. Shawn is responsible and conservative while Marlon is free-spirited and liberal. They are not immune to sibling rivalry, but frequently enjoy being each other's partner in crime.
