Default Fresh Prince of Bel-Aire — 30-Year Reunion
Has it been 30 years?!?

I am legit excited for this — Will Smith put out a trailer yesterday:



I consider myself lucky to have grown up watching Will, Uncle Phil, Aunt Viv, and the rest of them... some pretty memorable and hilarious moments that I’ve re-watched on Youtube and they are still amazing.

amazingly the original Aunt Viv returns for this, if I understand this right. She spent a lot of time blistering Smith after she left the show.

They look awesome!

I'm so thankful streaming services have allowed us to relive the show.



I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard, especially at Carlton, Ashley (heeey!) and Hilary's reactions.

Loved this show as a kid, can't wait for the reunion. I'll have to sign up for HBO Max I guess.

I recently re-watched this series on Netflix. It still holds up. Great, great stuff. Loved it growing up, and fell in love with it all over again.

The siblings from the show look like they hardly aged at all.

I actually preferred the original Aunt Viv actress.

So is it an actual show, or just a special with them talking about the show?

Man, I loved that show.

All of the characters are good in their own way, obviously Uncle Phil in particular, but for some reason I love Jeffrey.

The well-meaning but sarcastic Butler. He was awesome.

Looks like it's just a reunion/documentary thing.

It's a reunion.



The cast of Friends will be doing the same thing on their old set, out on HBO Max next spring. I'm sure a lot of shows will follow the lead.

Interesting video explaining why the original Aunt Viv was fired and how it changed the show.

I was a huge Fresh Prince Fan, but I don't see myself going out of the way to watch the actors talk about the show.
