Where Are They Now? Kids From a Few of Our Favorite Black TV Shows

Curtis Williams

Once a little chubby “thang,” Curtis Williams played Nicholas Peterson, the youngest son in the Peterson brood. After the show quietly ended in 1999, he did a few roles here and there. For instance, he did a movie called Durango Kids, and had guest roles on shows like “Moesha,” “Malcolm in the Middle,” “Cold Case,” and an appearance on “That’s So Raven” last in 2007. Word on the street is that nowadays, Williams is, of course, trying to be a rapper. I guess that’s the next best thing to do after being a child star…

Ashli Amari Adams

And the other little tyke on the show was CeCe Peterson, the youngest girl who always had her hair looking absolutely laid! Another one whose storylines weren’t too complex, she was just around for her cute factor. After the show, Adams appeared years later on “Girlfriends” as a student of Joan’s fiance. But otherwise, she’s been living like a regular young adult. The 20-year-old seems to keep in touch with some of her “Parent ‘Hood” co-stars, as Reagan Gomez-Preston supported her when she graduated from high school.
