Complex cacs tryna act like they down... I see y'all
I dunno bout white folks but Black people were tuned in around the world for a few shows. Fresh Prince being one. That's enough viewership to be more than a cross over success.don't know a black classmate who didn't watch it. it was the premier black sitcom, taking over the void left by cosby. it didn't have the crossover appeal/success with white folks that cosby had, but it was must-see, and by like 93/94 - this and martin were running shyt.
Must see TV. I don't think I missed an episode, and this was before syndication. Even white folks fukked loved it.How big was fresh prince when it was on air
How big was fresh prince when it was on air
nah, all of them weren't. some were niche - like all us females who were 5/6th grade - maybe early college, watched moesha, i don't know a lot of dudes who watched it religiously nor older folks. certain shows tho spanned age and gender and were simply all of black america's must see tv - cosby show, different world, martin, fresh prince, 227 (can only name the ones i was around to experience)...i assume shyt like sanford and sons, good times were those in the 70's/early 80'sAll black sitcom was must see t.v..
That scene don't hit me the way the scene where Carlton doesn't believe that they got racially profiled and arrested just for being black does. That's more relatable to me than the will scene and a real eye opener.
