A Different World Vs Saved By The Bell

[BrothaZay]

a different world since they had an episode with 2pac

They finished the senior year season with all of the episodes that were filmed with the OG cast. Then NBC ordered more episodes and Kelly and Jesse didn't want to return so they filled in their slots with Tori. When NBC broadcasted the season they mixed in Tori episodes with Kelly and Jessy episodes so the whole thing was a big mess and very confusing

I must not have realized this when I was younger. I recently caught a couple episodes in syndication back to back that had this going on. I was wondering what the deal was. Now I know

figure out who they girl in this episode grew up to be

EDIT: Nevermind I know now

And at the little African-centric boy sonning Whitley on her last name and shyt.

A different world and I'm surprised this isn't a landslide. The depth of the topics they touched upon on that show is just incredible, my personal favorite of all time and I didn't even come up in that era but I watch it daily.

Can't embed here but the re-enactment of Malcolm/MLK is

yeah this was the episode where Terrell was ready bust his gun

but there's no comparison, Different World touched on a whole nother level of depth on the issues and topics

Tisha Campbell having that House In Virgina episode..
Freddie damn near getting date raped, and Dwayne Wayne to the rescue
Blair Underwood giving his life to Uncle Sam just cause they paid for his college and being scared shytless

That episode with Scumbag Dean Cain playing the racist, and ****** being spray painted on Dwayne & Ron's car

Waaaaay more classics, too many to list...

The crazy thing is a different world had random extras on the set every episode that looked better than all 3 of them

Putting that cac show in the same breath as A Different World is an insult

...ADW made a 90s black kid look forward to the prospect of college

at the time i preffered saved by the bell so i voted for it, but saved by the bell has no replay value now. it was a horrible show a different world can still be watched today. i still catch re-runs along with the cosby show

 

[LionofJudah]

they didn't renew their contract because they didn't want to be on the show anymore; Them motherfukkas were pushing 25 still playing 18 year olds :pryorwtf:

They were pretty much the same age they played on screen breh.

I watched "A Different World" more than I did "Saved By the Bell" but both had different yet significant impact on my life. I was 7-10 when "A Different World" first aired, so although I watched it because it was a black show, it didn't reflect or affect my reality at that time(My uncle ended up going to Langston University though because of that show and because he got a band scholly). I was too young to comprehend the importance of that show and what effect it SHOULD of had on my life.

I didn't pick up "Saved By the Bell" until after "A Different World" was over and Tori was written off the show(I didn't know who she was until much later). Anyways, SBTB spoke a little bit more because I was approaching my teens and I could relate a bit more.

Both shows have their place.

I didn't appreciate A Different world when it was out, because I was way to young to care about black college life. Saved by the bell I suppose was more entertaining to me since I was closer getting into high school as opposed to college. I did order the box set of a different world years ago and watched them all.

Gotta call on that one, or ask where u ordered the box set from. Cause there is no official box set out. I been searching.

I mean via netflix, I ordered most of the seasons available.

 

[DemureNatural]

I completely agree with this entire post. I re-watched it when it was on Netflix (it may still be).

If it were on NF, it isn't at this point :'( but Saved By the Bell is...
