‘Bel-Air’ Is A Re-Imagination Of The Fresh Prince
Though it’s fairly proper to call Bel-Air a spin-off, the show is much more a re-imagination of the classic sitcom. The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air started in 1990 and lasted for six seasons. The series follows Will, played by Will Smith, as he moves to Beverly Hills with distant family members. In the new series, the basic premise is the same. However, the audience sees what caused Will to move. In addition, it’s much more of a drama series and is darker in tone. Of course, the show has comedic moments, but it’s much more serious overall than The Fresh Prince.
Bel-Air initially received some backlash for being so different from The Fresh Prince. However, the negativity seems to have subsided. If you have not watched the show’s first season, you can catch up before Bel-Air season 2 starts in February.
