    Whoa...
    Was not ever expecting this.

    Key points:
    *It's a reimagined version as a gritty street drama rather than a sit com
    *Will Smith will be one of the Producers
    *Quincy Jones will come back as a Producer

    Excited for this. The fan trailer was dope, hope they can do it justice. Wise move not to do a comedy reboot.

    Definitely interested but what made FP so great for me is that it was funny af, especially the chemistry between Carlton / Will and Uncle Phill.

    Not sure about this but sorta in

    Was always a fan of the show, but this seems cringe

    I'm really not sure how I feel about this.

    Trailer was dope but it was just weird hearing names like "Uncle Phil".

    This is either going to be really good ,or really bad. Nothing in-between.

    Guess we'll find out eventually. Like I said, that trailer was great. Weird. But great. The potential is huge but one wrong step and that'll be what's focused on.

    Seems intriguing but I wonder if it can stand on it's own two feet or if the novelty will wear off after a few eps.

    But I guess that's something they'll worry about later, for now they need that streaming deal to come through

    I hope fans of the original show will still be allowed to have sex with Will Smith's wife.

    The story bout how this came to be is awesome, guy just made a trailer that got Will Smiths attention and now he’s working on the reboot with Will, Quincy, and a few of the other original producers and creators.

    I love the original fresh prince, was my favorite show till recently. This one is supposed to be more of a drama serious project.. I doubt I’ll like it that much but still curious and even if it’s awful I don’t think it ruins the original for me.

    If Will is heavily involved this has potential. Could be cool
