TV Pilot Club: 'The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air' — Kick It With Us To Revisit The Very First Episode

Truth matters. Community matters. Your support makes both possible. LAist is one of the few places where news remains independent and free from political and corporate influence. Stand up for truth and for LAist. Make your year-end tax-deductible gift now.

In 1990, one of the most iconic sitcom theme songs in history launched a brand-new TV show. The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air was a classic fish-out-of-water story with a decidedly ‘90s twist. Nearly 20 million viewers tuned in to watch each week.

Come hang out with LAist arts & entertainment reporter Mike Roe* and special guests as they get into all things fresh — from the fashion and the music to Jazzy Jeff and the Carlton.

Watch the pilot again before the event and join us right back here at 6:30 p.m. tonight (Tuesday).

*We can’t promise Mike won’t sing the theme song.

Instead, we answer to you and our connected community. We are free to tell the full truth, to hold power to account without fear or favor, and to follow facts wherever they lead.

Right now, LAist has lost $1.7M in annual funding due to Congress clawing back money already approved. The support we receive before year-end will determine how fully our newsroom can continue informing, serving, and strengthening Southern California.
