I was a massive Fresh Prince fan when I was younger! So I was really excited about this.
Carlton is so unlikeabl. Which I'm gutted about as I loved him in the sitcom and Alfonso played it so well. I was shocked when Carlton said the F word (amongst other things!) My 13 year old self back in the day would never have believed it!!
I think its well done and I like the occasional nods to the original, like the staircase in the house, the dice in the car windscreen, the inside out school jacket!
However I do feel that without the humour/ comedic aspect to it, it looses its overall universal appeal.
Uncle Phil is well cast, and I think Will is too.
Yeh I am enjoying it and I think it will get better as it goes on.
