Co-starring Peri Gilpin as the school principal, and Meagan Good as an English teacher. The six-episode debut season of Mr. Robinson will be followed by Jerrod Carmichael’s half-hour...

Speaking of his wife, Jake jokes about the very appeal of wife-swapping, and later doesn’t see polygamy as the bonus most polygamists do. And come to think about it, his take on those sex pill commercials are different, too, now that he is a man of that certain age. Roll the...
