    Used to love watching this show, when I was growing up, but caught it mostly in re-runs, it aired monday nights @ 7, when melrose was moved to monday nights, fresh prince was put on the back burner.

    Only the first few seasons. It got corny around the time the first Aunt Viv was replaced.

    Of course I did. Like Atown said....it got dry in the final seasons. And Will Smith was trying to copy Martin with his antics way too much.

    I thought it was okay. It's been interesting to watch a young cute Will Smith evolve into a talented, even cuter adult.

    Totally, like I said, they really don't think we're going to notice that Vivian is twice the size and half the color she was? Or that we'll believe it's having the baby that changed her?

    Does anybody know why Vivian was replaced?

    It also seemed to me, when the new Vivian came in, her and Uncle Phil got into more arguments.

    He was mad because his mistress didn't know her role and killed his wife!

    LOL, I kid. But let the original Aunt Viv tell the story, she left because she wasn't gonna kiss Will Smith's ass.

    Kind of like how Jo Marie Payton was replaced as Harriette on Family Matters because she didn't like the show had become all about Steve Urkel.

    I've only seen repeats. Will Smith is my only reason to watch.

    The original actress claimed that they were going to cut her episodes in half, not featuring (or paying) her as much. And in the meantime, wouldn't allow her to do any side projects.

    'Fresh Prince' Star
    RIPS WILL SMITH
    I'll Never Reunite w/ that 'A**hole'


    Fresh Prince of Bel-Air 1223-janet-viv-whitten-ex

    The woman who played the original Aunt Viv on "Fresh Prince of Bel Air" says there's a damn good reason she wasn't at a recent reunion dinner with the rest of the Banks family -- she HATES Will Smith.

    15 years after the show went off the air ... Janet Hubert tells TMZ she's still upset with the way she was fired from the show ... and blames the whole thing on Smith himself.

    "There will never be a reunion ... as I will never do anything with an a**hole like Will Smith," Hubert said.

    She adds, "He is still an egomaniac and has not grown up. This constant reunion thing will never ever happen in my lifetime unless there is an apology, which he doesn't know the word."

    Hubert has said in the past she believes Smith is to blame for her departure in the middle of the show's run -- claiming he turned on her because she wouldn't kiss his butt.

    But Smith refuted the claims after Hubert left the show in 1993 -- telling an Atlanta radio station Hubert simply had a bad attitude which played a major role in her demise.

    Smith told the radio station, "[Hubert] said once, 'I've been in the business for 10 years and this snotty-nosed punk comes along and gets a show.' No matter what, to her I'm just the AntiChrist."

    We called Smith for comment -- so far, no response.

    We'll probably never know who's side is more in the right here but I can definitely see hers when she says he's an egomaniac. It's not unbelievable.

    How many times is she gonna rehash this? Really she needs to let that go. The show has now been off the air for almost 3x longer than it was on. She should take solace in how most people prefer her version of Aunt Viv to Daphne Maxwell Reid's and move on.

    This. Add the fact that she has done absolutely shit since that show....she should just do the reunion and hopefully get a job. I do believe Will is an egomaniac....but really, how much derision can you harbor?
