===Plot===
''Living Single'' centered on six friends in their 20s living the single life in [[Prospect Heights, Brooklyn|Prospect Heights]], [[Brooklyn]].<ref>"Fatal Distraction". ''Living Single''. Season 1, Episode 16. First aired January 9, 1994.</ref>

The series focused on two different households in one brownstone, one shared by a trio of independent women and another shared by two male friends who had known each other since childhood while living in [[Cleveland|Cleveland, Ohio]]. In the first apartment, Khadijah James ([[Queen Latifah]]), a hard-working [[editing|editor]] and [[publisher]] of the fictional urban independent magazine ''Flavor'', lived with her sweet but naive cousin Synclaire James ([[Kim Coles]]), an aspiring actress who worked as Khadijah's receptionist and had an affinity for [[Troll doll]]s, and her childhood friend from [[East Orange, New Jersey]], Regina "Régine" Hunter ([[Kim Fields]]), an image-conscious boutique buyer who was on a constant search for a well-to-do man to spend her life (and his money) with. Later in the series, Régine became a costume assistant for the soap opera ''Palo Alto''. When the soap was canceled, she became a wedding planner and left the apartment to move in with her fiancé Dexter Knight ([[Don Franklin]]). Maxine "Max" Shaw ([[Erika Alexander]]), a sharp-tongued [[Lawyer|Attorney]] and Khadijah's best friend from their college days at [[Howard University]], frequently stopped by to share her unique insights and the events of her day, to make sure that the girls' refrigerator wasn't overstocked, and to start trouble with Kyle, looking for any chance to make his life worse.

Kyle Barker ([[Terrence C. Carson|T.C. Carson]]) lived in the second apartment with Overton Wakefield Jones ([[John Henton]]). Overton was the friendly but bucolic maintenance man for the owner of their (and neighboring) building, who held a deep affection for Synclaire and plenty of hilarious homespun wisdom for everyone else. Kyle was a [[stockbroker]] whose constant verbal sparring with Max did little to mask their obvious sexual attraction to each other. Kyle and Max pursued a sexual relationship, but when he decided to take a job in London and invited Max to join him, she turned him down. Maxine subsequently became distraught over her decision and, after defending a man who claimed to be the second coming of [[Jesus Christ|Jesus]] ([[Harold Perrineau]]), she began to take her life more seriously. Through a series of events, Max decided that her purpose must be to become a mother. During the insemination process, she unknowingly picked Kyle's sperm specimen based on a list of qualities she would like for her child to have. Kyle returned in the series finale, and the two reconciled. Overton and Synclaire also got together, and their relationship culminated in marriage by the end of the fourth season. In season five, they moved in together, leaving Overton and Kyle's apartment open for new character Roni DeSantos ([[Idalis DeLeon]]), a New York-area D.J., to move in. It was eventually revealed that DeSantos had a fling with Ira Lee "Tripp" Williams III, ([[Mel Jackson]]), a songwriter whom Khadijah and Régine allowed to move in when Synclaire's room became available. Synclaire joined a comedy improv troupe where she gained the attention of Tony Jonas, a [[Warner Bros. Television]] executive who cast her as a nun for a new comedy series he was developing.

Along with trying to make ''Flavor'' a success, Khadijah also looked for Mr. Right. She eventually found him in childhood friend Scooter ([[Cress Williams]]), with whom she left the brownstone for the final time in the series finale.
