After news was announced of an official remake, I was very skeptical about the project.
However, as the series progresses through three seasons, there is no denying thatBel-Airhasbeen a great re-imagined series.
It has created new stories while also honoring theoriginal Will Smith show.

A gritty and more grounded reimagining of the ’90s sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Bel-Air stars Jabari Banks as Will Smith. After falling afoul of a drug lord and his gang in his native West Philadelphia, Will Smith moves to a gated community in Bel-Air with his wealthy Aunt Vivian (Cassandra Freeman) and Uncle Phil (Adrian Holmes). Not only must Will adjust to his new environment, but he’s also forced to deal with his past in order to embrace his future.
