Some people should not be allowed to make movies. Let alone funding a storyline that is not really original and poorly executed. Not worth the watch.

Complete waste of time ... All the other reviews are spot on - so I will not repeat. But the hypocritical irony on taking responsibility for one's wrongdoing and lies to only be rewarded and not held accountable for one's wrongdoing and lies is the ultimate slap in the face. I am not sure if there will be a follow-up, but I will not be watching. The cornerstone message of the whole series is undermined in the finale. And no matter what, there is always bias in the writing even when it's unintentional ... only the black girl is left to be handed her punishments while all other members of the group go on to be "free", even the son and co-conspirators of a fake kidnapping "to expose the truth". (Spoiler!) Why her? When she was targeted and pulled in? Why not Evie? Whose disguise was a haircut of inches and was the actual culprit of the entire thing?!?! I guess it is still hard to write in the demise of a white woman when you have a black character better fit for a jumpsuit. [Still love Kunal/Rajesh though BBT-fan 4Lyfe!]

Storyline of wife's search for her missing husband (thought dead) is endearing only to uncover all kinds of secrets/unknowns that didn't exist in her cushy world. But what makes this suck is the main character (Georgia's) consistent disregard for the reality of what the show is trying to portray. She is brazen in the face of danger, which sounds good in theory, but people have already died because of it - but not her even after multiple "encounters" with moments where she should have been shot. For me, it only reiterates the truth of how white woman are able to navigate the world without regard for anyone else as long as their needs or pursuits are satisfied. There is a parallel story happening showing us the danger and truth of what happened to her husband, she is learning of the devil that lives inside of the man she's chasing, yet she just keeps moving like that does not apply to me. Hence the multiple robberies, but she somehow still has her things; meeting of strangers who just can't seem to resist helping her, or her willingness to just go out her own with no real supplies in foreign (African) jungle saturated in a civil war within civil wars. But somehow she just keeps lucking up. It's just not real. This aspect for me kills all of the other elements that are so well done (writing between villain and young girl rebel soldier; the realities of forced militia life; the true story of the crash). I just see so many ways she can still be the heroin without it looking like she got an escalator ride to the ultimate goal.

A legit waste of time. [no spoilers]. Elements of the story are predictable and then there are elements that are literally just a no - especially for the time period. To be left with an answer in the worst way simply feels like a waste of time and no real resolution. Just loss, absence, and no actual justice. Anyone rating this high is overly thrilled with the shock factor in the overlapping storylines of the main two characters. A 3-rating seems generous but fair.

Amazing! I am one to say "never remake a classic" because something is always messed up; however, this reinvention of the Fresh Prince of Belair is phenomenal!!!! They each stand on their own. This new version gives the audience more realness and less of the comedic timing like the original. This show has some ISSUES that we get to see get dealt with and some nuances from the original gain more attention (i.e. Carlton's envy, Hilary having more substance than assumed, Geoffrey being a TRUE G!!!). They put all the right twists in the right places. I truly love both. God job Will and the Borowitz's😎 Last but not least THE CAST! The execution is remarkable abs I wouldn't change a thing. Hoping for longevity.
