Surprisingly under-rated show isn’t it
Really great

Still sing the theme tune or bits of it on a fairly regular basis.
Used to absolutely blag my way through the ‘license-plate-said-fresh-and-it-had-dice-in-the-mirror’ bit in the pre-Google days
Rewatched it a few years ago, it holds up
Odd how Will Smith has gone from this proper beloved talented guy to a bit of a naff almost joke
There’s that The Fresh Prince of Bel Air: The Return coming soon isn’t there
Might ask if I can use work’s Adobe Premiere to edit this actually
Fuck it
Ask for forgiveness not permission
Thsts the fresh Prince way
Absolutely unnecessary imo
I think I remember watching the gritty trailer remake it’s based on and at no point did I think that it could form the basis for a full scale reboot
Get David Lynch directing all the episodes though and co writing them with Mark Frost though and now we’re talking lad
Does a brilliant job of mixing comedy and serious issues too, sometimes in a dead subtle way. Watched one today where Will and Carlton get pulled over by cops for being black and it was so well done
Is it streaming anywhere? Might watch them all
Classic tv. Never really understood the sniffiness towards it.
That’s why it seems like such a pointless choice to do a gritty drama reboot - kind of undermines what the original did, and goes down that “comedy can’t be serious drama” thing
Maybe I’m wrong tho, who knows
It seems odd as well cause Will Smith is the Fresh Prince. No one can ever play it as well as him or ever would have, very odd

We watched a load of it during lockdown 1. Just wanted comfort food from us childhoods, but it was surprisingly brilliant. The jokes, the acting, the writing, it’s an all round banger.
Poor ashley
poor Hilary! no votes so far. She’d usually have a classic one-liner in each episode.
Might start a rewatch tonight tbh
