Watchseries; It's ok but I'd prefer if they brought back the old fresh prince. This version just seems a little off compared to the original. Bring back the good ole days with the real fresh prince of bel air. But I'll definitely be watching because it's something I grew up on.

Bel-Air watchseries. I'm over it! Once upon a time entertainment was entertaining. Ya'll remember that? I think actors, writers, film makers, producers etc have gotten so caught up in trying to preach to us their political views that they entirely forgot why the audience shows up. We're not going to theatres or paying our hard earned money to join Netflix or Disney Plus or Amazon Prime, Peacock, or whatever other streaming site, to be reminded of real life and anyone's political stance. We want to be entertained.
I tried to get into this but it was just doing the most. I'm over it.
Reviewing after first three episodes.
Having grown up with the original was not sure what to expect going in to this but I am glad I gave it a chance. Was not expecting much after reading the reviews that have been posted so far but was pleasantly surprised that it was not as bad as some would have you believe. Infact I quite enjoyed it. There are always going to be bad reviews of a remake wether or not it is actually any good, its not the same, its too different etc. Yes, it is very different, but I liked it and look forward to the rest of the series.
If you grew up with the original Fresh Prince, it may be quite hard to watch this reboot without it feeling wrong and to give it an objective chance.
I watched the first episode so far and I can see why some people hate it: it has the same base characters and back story but it's different in a way that makes it almost unrecognisable and some people will definitely be disappointed not to get the old 'vibe' again.
I knew it wasn't a comedy, but that was a massive part of the charm of the original so personally I missed the likeable cheekiness of Will in this episode (maybe it comes in later).
Aunt Viv, Hilary and Ashley feel familiar if only more modern, however Carlton is different and not in a good way in my opinion. The original was a lovable square, the new one so far is an unpleasant, drug taking jackass.
Geoffrey is also very different, no witt or funny sarcasm so far.
The family as a whole looks less 'posh' and classy than before and more MTV Cribs style rich.
I will give this a chance and watch more, trying my best to not compare with the original, before I can decide if it's good or bad.
Great remake of Fresh Prince, I was hooked on it from the start , I really don't understand the negative reviews.
There were more details concerning Wills back story and the circumstances that led to him leaving Philadelphia, the characters had more development, but the humour is still there.
Was expecting a different spin on the fresh Prince, more like the rotten nephew, it's crap, I mean crap, not funny, loads of swearing and the N bomb all the time, it's just bad, if you like the original fresh Prince, then this ain't it, defo poor effort at a remake that as it happens weren't needed.
