They made her light skinned and non-threatening. Dark Viv was accomplished and on some cougar shyt plus a way better fit when you consider Ashley and Carlton's characters being darker.
Yep, a character with 360 degrees of personality vs. someone to be Nicky's baby sitter.

:huh: She didn't even really have good chemistry with the rest of the Smith sisters.

As a Fresh Prince stan; if anyone was a "sellout" or whatever, it was Will.

Will was always talmbout how real he was and leaned on the fact he was "from the hood."

:childplease: Even though he got ran out and never kept in touch with anyone but his mom.

Will was always fronting.

Carlton couldn't help being raised on the same street as the Reagans. The only time he started fronting was after he couldn't take Will & Jazz mercilessly bullying him. And he still was about to survive in Compton. Mind you, Carlton treated Will--his blood--like a brother, while Will stayed disrespecting him.

Yea', Carlton didn't understand Will, but, he was more open-minded to change.

While Will was talmbout "You should lie about your virginity," Carlton--like a man--just told the truth.

Who was always running away from problems, on that show? Will.

Who was always staying true themselves? Call him a Right-Wing, sexist, snub, but, Carlton never lied about who he was ("I love Barry Manilow" "He meant Barry White, ch'all" :dry:).

Oh, yea :childplease: Will was homeless by the end of the show, because he was so into "keepin' it real," as opposed to handling business.

I love 'em, both, but, Carlton > Will

nikka was too busy frittering :sas2:.

Carlton isn't a c00n. A c00n is a person who understands the facts and still acts like there is nothing wrong.
My take on him is that initially he was sheltered and privillaged to the point he truely didn't understand the real... but I remember one episode when he got harassed by a cop and that shyt hit him like a ton of bricks.
He had the same expression as Don Lemon when he was out in Ferguson and the cops gave no fukks about his press badge.

Plus when Will gets shot Carlton gets a gun ready to hit those streets.

Carlton is about that life... he's just a late bloomer.



Carlton was a fukking G.

Damn, I hadn't even thought of that. Dark Viv made you think she really was sisters with them aunties. They shoulda made light skin Viv something else like Jazz grandma or something, no offense to her cuz she was a sweetheart.
