idk there's a bunch of other threads about poo poo from the 90s that was added on Netflix recently



I remember watching this as a kid in the 90s and it was really good. Also it has some good/touching moments

I liked it when Carleton found out that being black overrides being rich when it comes to dealing with cops.

I watched Ticks on Amazon Prime. It’s a god awful horror movie, but it features Carlton trying to act like he’s a thug from the streets. So it ended up being entertaining nonetheless.

It could be corny at times like any sitcom but it was always well written and the cast was solid.

I watched Fresh Prince every single day as a kid - I can't remember a loving thing that happened, or even the names of half the characters, but I know every word of the intro.

A sign of true quality tv.

I liked when Will called the cops, but the cops were already arriving for another reason and he was like "drat, I guess they though we were white"

Wait, no, not liked. Was depressed by. Also when Carleton got harassed at college for not being black enough. Or when Carleton bought a gun because he was mugged.

Man, why did the show hate Carleton so goddamn bad?

What I did actually like was how godawful all the costuming was because fashion in the 90s was hot garbage.

It's a shame Uncle Phil died, since now we'll never get a proper reunion episode where Carlton can finally come out.

Also, Hilary was p hot.

They should make a sequel where the remaining family members take an armored tank to philly and right all the wrongs and injustices done to will by his thuggish counterparts and lovely police, like they munchin on cheesesteaks and bumpin ginuwine and will is picking up chicks with his charm the whole way, and when they get to the big finale will shows up in a suit of armor on the historic basketball court where he got lightly fouled and slays all his foes, and gives a huge atomic wedgie to that Carl Winslow lookin rear end police officer who tried to stifle his youthful artistic endeavors. :dunkedon:

Queen Latifah played two different characters on the show

She played Will’s fat friend who Will fat-shamed

Then she also played Hillary’s mean boss

I like the episode where uncle Phil, Carlton and Will get stranded and find the money in the cave
