Today I learned they're shooting a Fresh Prince special reuniting the full cast, including Janet Hubert aka the original Aunt Viv. Well, minus James Avery of course, who passed away in 2014. His presence will be missed. But still, as someone who grew up watching Fresh Prince over and over in syndication, seeing the cast in that familiar set brings out all kinds of fuzzy nostalgic feelings in me.
Kind of balls it's going to be HBO Max only, but no matter, I'll get around to it.
They're also doing a reboot called Bel-Air.
From what I've read of it, it's going to be a darker dramatic re-imagining. Not sure what I think of this. Might be good in its own right, but I suspect it won't have the same level of lightning in a bottle as the original did.
