For those who just can't get enough of Public Enemy's clock-wearing hypeman, MyNetworkTV has tapped the rapper-turned-TV personality for a new sitcom entitled 'Under One Roof.' Flavor Flav will play an ex-convict who moves in with his wealthy, conservative brother in the 'Odd Couple'/'The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air'-type comedy series.
