Meet Martin Payne, the man, the myth, the legend
First up, we've got Martin Payne himself. Martin is the smooth-talking, sharp-dressing, and often scheming main character. He's a radio personality who's always got a plan, a joke, or a come-up.

Martin's always trying to outsmart his friends and neighbors, but somehow, he always ends up being the one getting outsmarted. It's a good thing he's got that charm, 'cause he sure needs it!
Sheneneh Jenkins: The original sassy neighbor
Now, let's talk about Sheneneh Jenkins. Played by the incredible Tichina Arnold, Sheneneh is Martin's loud, nosy, and incredibly sassy neighbor. She's got a laugh that could wake the dead and a mouth that's even faster than Martin's. Sheneneh's always got an opinion, and she's not afraid to share it. She's the kind of neighbor who'd borrow your sugar, then tell you how to live your life. But hey, we all need a Sheneneh in our lives, right?
