How will Will adjust to his new surroundings in the first season of the Bel-Air TV show on Peacock? As we all know, the Nielsen ratings typically play a big role in determining whether a TV show like Bel-Air is cancelled or renewed for season two. Peacock and other streaming platforms, however, collect their own data. If you’ve been watching this TV series, we’d love to know how you feel about the first season episodes of Bel-Air here.
A Peacock dramatic series, the Bel-Air TV show is a reimagining of the 90s sitcom, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. It stars Jabari Banks, Cassandra Freeman, Jimmy Akingbola, Olly Sholotan, Coco Jones, Akira Akbar, Simone Joy Jones, Jordan L. Jones, and Adrian Holmes. Set in modern-day America, the story follows young Will Smith’s (Banks) complicated journey from the streets of West Philadelphia to the gated mansions of Bel-Air. When a couple of guys (who were up to no good) started making trouble in his neighborhood, Will is sent to stay with his wealthy Aunt Viv (Freeman), Uncle Phil (Holmes), and cousins Carlton (Sholotan), Hilary (Jones), and Ashley (Akbar) in an affluent Los Angeles neighborhood for a fresh start.
What do you think? Which season one episodes of the Bel-Air TV series do you rate as wonderful, terrible, or somewhere between? Are you glad that Bel-Air on Peacock has been renewed for a second season? Don’t forget to vote, and share your thoughts, below.
Too bad Will Smith is involved in this project. Get rid of Will and I’ll start watching the show again.
Was enjoying it until I saw the Oscars. Won’t watch anything again with Willard or anything with his prints on it. Boycott Bel Air.
This show is much better than I even expected! The characters are all amazing. I do wish there were another Carlton though. While I think he is an amazing actor I don’t feel like his look adequately portrays Carlton.
I love this show! So glad we finally don’t have to pander to Hollywood by telling our stories in a comedic manner so everyone else feels “comfortable.” The actors are magnificent. The cinematography beautiful. So proud and glad it gets another season. This show is definitely “FOR THE CULTURE.”
This show represents the worst type of divisive pandering in place of production value and originality.
