Having not seen this since it left tv, I set out to watch it. Wondering why my mother insisted I do so as a child. By the 5th episode, I knew. I grew up in a very white state. Some in my family against diversity, even in dolls. We had one child of color, though he represented them extremely ill. Chase others with wooden tent poles, drawing blood. That was 1st grade. He didn't get better. He was never held accountable or punished. And I was his favorite toy. I changed how I look at different peop

I love watching fresh prince of bel air because It's too funny like everytime when I'm sad I can watch fresh prince of bel air to cheer me up and I cannot stand will smith's jokes lmao. Anyways, I recommend it for pre-teens and tweens to watch it but you may experience a little bit of swearing and kissing. There's no sex scences towards the show and there's some jokes you may not understand when your 13 or older. Otherwise than that, great TV show! :D
