While Tia and Tamera were household names thanks to the popularity of their show "Sister, Sister," they weren't being compensated as well as other white actresses of the time. Thankfully, their mother Darlene Mowry helped them to get what they deserved.

During a recent interview, Jackée Harry shared that nearly turned down the chance to appear in what is now the iconic show "Sister, Sister."

On an episode of her webseries, "The Housely Life" Tamera Mowry-Housely shared stories and secrets from "Sister, Sister" now that the show has been repopularized by its presence on Netflix.

While Mowry would have loved to bring back the shows, "legalities" and conversations with networks about doing so caused reboot plans to fall flat.

These black sitcoms broke the mold by showing healthy families with a socioeconomic status to match.
