The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
27 April 2005
Warning: Spoilers
This is one of those pretty good American sitcoms with a good actor as the main star of the series. Before he became famous in Independence Day and Men in Black, actor and rapper Golden Globe nominated Will Smith spent his time in this sitcom basically about him, the Fresh Prince. He lives with his Uncle Phil Banks (James Avery), his Aunt Vivian Banks (Janet Hubert-Whitten), his silly cousin Carlton Banks (Alfonso Ribeiro), his showoff cousin Hilary Banks (Karyn Parsons), the cute young cousin Ashley Banks (Tatyana Ali) and the amusing butler Geoffrey (Joseph Marcell). Throughout the show we have misunderstandings, not very successful birthdays, dinners, romances, cute kids and of course, the cool Will Smith being cool and funny at the same time. It was nominated the Emmy for Outstanding Individual Achievement in Lighting Direction (Electronic) for a Comedy Series. Very good!
