‘Fresh Prince of Bel-Air’ returning to TV — with a twist

More than 20 years after the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air ended its six-season run on TV, it’s coming back — minus the laugh track and all the neon. (After all, it was the ‘90s.)Original star Will Smith has teamed up with Morgan Cooper, who created a YouTube trailer for a dramatic version of the sitcom in 2019, along with super producers Benny Medina (who worked on the original) and Quincy Jones on a reimagining. The group is currently shopping the project to streaming services such as NBC’s Peacock, Netflix and HBO Max, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
