The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air

Few shows had quite the same reach and impact in the 1990s as <em>The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air</em>. The NBC series catapulted Will Smith into movie stardom, and it remains infinitely memeable — from the Carlton Dance to its instantly recognizable theme song. And while it was a goofy fish-out-of-water sitcom, the series also revealed layers and heft, with humor (and occasionally some very special drama) that frequently touched on class and race.
