Joseph, Andrew, and Matthew Lawrence.

Brotherly Love was a television show which ran on NBC from September 16, 1995, until April 1, 1996. NBC cancelled the series after its first season. It then moved to The WB network, where it ran from September 15, 1996, until May 18, 1997. It starred Joey Lawrence as Joe Roman, with his real-life brothers, Matthew Lawrence and Andrew Lawrence, as his brothers Matt and Andy. Joe takes on his (late) father's business, while the family struggles to grow closer together as the boys grow up also encountering serious situations. The whole series basically takes the issues comedically, every dialogue is fast-moving and filled with pop culture references including the use of deadpan expression and non-sequiturs.
