The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
1990-1996 | Comedy | USA | Created by Andy Borowitz and Susan Borowitz
Overview
Will Smith, a West Philadelphia kid, sent to live with rich relatives in Bel Air. The sitcom that let rap be the texture, not the premise. Uncle Phil and the Banks family grew richer every season, and the father episode is a masterclass. Smith learned to act on camera in front of millions. Born a catchphrase, ended a star. The theme song is a communal sing along forever.
