Where did the series start airing on Jan 31 , 1999 ?
At that same time , Chicago - based national cable superstation WGN began airing reruns of the series , airing the series until 2002 ( when its broadcast syndication run also ended ) ; ironically , WGN ( both the local Chicago feed and the national superstation feed ) aired " The Wayans Bros. " in first - run form from 1995 to 1999 , when WGN ( whose local Chicago feed was an affiliate of the network ) carried WB programming nationally to make The WB available to markets where a local affiliate did not exist ( " The Wayans Bros. " is one of three WB series to have aired on WGN in both first - run and syndication form ; " The Parent ' Hood " , " 7th Heaven " and " Sister , Sister " being the others ) .
