Will in The Fresh Prince and Bel-Air in front of music notes
Bel-Air made a good choice not bringing back the original theme song from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. The reimagined version of the classic 90s sitcom Bel-Air sports an entirely new cast, with Jabari Banks playing Will Smith, yet revisits the same story as The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air. However, the Peacock show focuses more on the racial tensions and world of the black bourgeoisie in a dramatic retelling, offering a different take to the originally light-hearted show.
Fresh Prince’s Theme Song Wouldn’t Have Fit Bel-Air’s Tone "Déjà vu" Is A Much Better Theme Song Close The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air’s theme song is missing from Bel-Air because it wouldn’t fit with the show’s tone. Bel-Air established itself as a grittier drama series from the beginning and has drastically deviated from the original show’s tone.
28 Furthermore, the reboot was set up by a Fresh Prince of Bel-Air episode featuring Will’s dad. The episode “Papa’s Got A Brand New Excuse” explored Will’s personality in a deeper way as Will’s dad returns and tries to reconcile with his son, leading to one of the rare emotional moments in the otherwise comedic sitcom.
The 1990s sitcom had the perfect potential to be a drama due to its compelling story, but the show’s comedic tone allowed it to gain mainstream success.
