He is best known for his roles as Overton Wakefield Jones on the Fox Network sitcom Living Single, and as Milsap Morris on the ABC/UPN sitcom The Hughleys. Henton is an avid Cleveland Browns fan, as noted on the television series, Living Single. Henton never entertained the thought of a career in comedy.
