The BEST episodes of Bel-Air

Every episode of Bel-Air ever, ranked from best to worst by thousands of votes from fans of the show. The best episodes of Bel-Air!

Based on Morgan Cooper’s popular fan film, this series, set in modern-day America, is a serialized one-hour dramatic analogue of the popular ’90s sitcom "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" that leans into the original premise: Will’s complicated journey from the streets of West Philadelphia to the gated mansions of Bel-Air. With a reimagined vision, the series will dive deeper into the inherent conflicts, emotions and biases, while still delivering swagger and nods to the original show.
