Star Trek: The Motion Picture is a boring movie
I thought the show was fine, but I hated two things in particular:

It made no loving sense whatsoever for Carlton to go to a loving community college for a couple years before heading to Princeton. It was obviously done so his character was still around, but man, that always bugged me.

I also hated that the college's mascot was a peacock. Such a stupid on the nose joke.

I was thinking of when Will and Carlton lived in the pool house, same deal. Contrived reason to have them still always around the house. The old Mike Seaver.

I remember the episode where Carlton OD's on speed because he thought they were vitamins, just for the whiplash tonal shift from where he's doing a frenzied Carlton Dance to him waking up in the hospital. I think the audience was still laughing when he passes out. Dude could just not catch a break on that show

Is he a Scientologist or does he just have a lot of Scientology connections? I've never been clear on it.

His wife was involved in it before he married her, they raised their kids in it, but Will Smith himself wasn’t officially a scientologist until a few years ago when he finally joined.

That emotional father breakdown really hit me hard when I was a kid because mine was the same way.

Now I'm just like "goddamn Will, to hell with that loser, blood don't mean anything. Your real family is the people who treat you as such and the rest of them can go gently caress themselves forever"

It is kind of wild that the show ran until 1996, well after Will Smith was a megastar.

The episode where Uncle Phil turns out to have paid for Law School by being a pool shark and he wins back all of Will’s money is one of the best episodes of any TV show ever.

Best ep is when Uncle Phil tells a touching story about not getting the chance to apologize to a close friend he had a falling out with that later died.

Carlton and Will smell bullshit and start poking holes in it and hes all "gently caress it I made the whole thing up, leave me alone I'm hitting the fridge!"

It could be corny at times like any sitcom but it was always well written and the cast was solid.

Original Aunt Viv > Replacement Aunt Viv

RIP Uncle Phil

100%, old aunt Viv would sometimes act like jerk and end up with her foot in her mouth in a self depreciating, funny way.

New one was just a shrill bitch Phil had to tiptoe around.

such loving trash

also Will Smith took the show because he owed the IRS like 3 million bucks and needed a steady paycheque to pay it off or else they'd have pulled a Wesley Snipes on his rear end.

For some reason anytime I'd tune into re-runs, I'd almost always end up catching the Soul Train episode. It's got some good poo poo.

This one is really good because Alfonso Ribeiro loving kills it at the end.
