I guess they are rebooting The Fresh Prince. The article I read used one of the red flag buzzwords “reimagining”. Article finally said the show plans to address “race and class”. I mean what would a show be in current year if it didn’t lecture us about race for the 10000th time.
I’m sure it will win awards. The three easiest ways to win are to “address racism”, have a female led program that bravely attacks the patriarchy, or a show about immigration where the not so subtle message is anything less than open borders is evil.
I’ll be happily watching reruns of Little House on the Prairie and Sanford and Son.
It addressed real black issue and those are scary, so they won't be doing that again. Now they need to solve modern black issues like hand signs about White Power, your white friends accidentally saying nigga while singing along to rap music, and police having the stones to shoot you while you are committing crimes.
Pretty sure they actually did address the white boy saying nigga bit comically tbh. It's been decades so I could be wrong.
Its been that long for me too, but I feel that treating it like a fun little joke like that won't be how its done in current year.
Nope. Full on "unsolicited opinions on Israel" moment that breaks the flow of the show and probably one of those OOC speeches from the cast before the credits.
