The Neighborhood, developed and written by Jim Reynolds and directed by James Burrows, tells the story of Dave Johnson (Max Greenfield, instead of Josh Lawson in the audition), a good man who used to live in the Midwest. After his family moved to the black community of Los Angeles, not all people here appreciate his good-neighborly style, including the protagonist's new neighbor Calvin Butler (Cedric the Entertainer). Other stars include Sheaun McKinney, Tichina Arnold, Beth Behrs, Marcel Spears and Hank Greenspan.
