"Influence goes both ways."

Will, a street-smart teenager, moves from the tough streets of West Philly to posh Bel-Air to live with his Uncle Philip, Aunt Vivian, his cousins — spoiled Hilary, preppy Carlton and young Ashley — and their sophisticated British butler, Geoffrey. Though Will’s antics and upbringing contrast greatly with the upper-class lifestyle of his extended relatives, he soon finds himself right at home as a loved part of the family.

After the end of the 80s and right in the beginning of the 90s, we had a whole new kind of comedy show. Fresh Prince of Bel-Air was something new in the sitcom world, something 'fresh'. It was also the same show that catapulted Will Smith to fame. And while every episode was funny, it also made awareness to serious issues; racial discrimination, gun violence and Will's issue with his father (that episode was the most tearful moment). But all in all, the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air had always brought both laugh and hip hop to all community. And my fav moments will always be when Uncle Phil throws Jazz out of the house.
