CBS is undoubtedly hoping to strike comedy gold with the pairing of TV vets Cedric the Entertainer and Tichina Arnold for their new series, ‘The Neighborhood.’

Per our friends at S&A, the show’s official description:

“Here’s a comedy about what happens when the friendliest guy in the Midwest moves his family (the Johnsons) to a neighborhood in Los Angeles where not everyone looks like him – or appreciates his extreme neighborliness. Cedric the Entertainer stars as Calvin Butler, the Johnsons’ opinionated next-door neighbor, who is wary of the newcomers, and certain that the Johnsons will disrupt the culture on the block.”

Ahead of its premiere this fall, look below for the comedy’s official extended trailer:
