Living Single (1993-1998) - During its early development, this television show caught the attention of an executive at a competing network who publicly expressed a desire to air a similar project. Shortly after this executive's comments, a new sitcom about six young adults living in New York City apartments was greenlit and eventually became the widely recognized television show "Friends."

The lead actress, Queen Latifah, also contributed heavily to the production beyond her on-screen role as Khadijah James. She personally wrote and performed the theme song that plays during the opening credits, ensuring the music matched the specific urban setting of the storyline.
