When Morgan Cooper dropped the 2019 reimagining of the 90s sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, Will Smith was seriously impressed. A far cry from the series’ hay-day of gags and slapstick humor, Cooper foregrounded the drama inherently in the protagonist’s emotional journey.
The setup of this Peacock Original series is pretty much the same: Will is bailed out after getting “in one little fight” and his fretful mom sends him cross country to live with his rich relatives in their Bel-Air mansion. But Cooper’s Bel-Air – which he wrote and directed – focuses on the story’s emotional beats rather than its broad comedy, with Will clashing with cousin Carlton, his new classmates, and generally struggling to adapt to this rarefied, upper-class environment.
So, read on below for our guide on how to watch Bel-Air online, and stream every episode with a subscription to NBC’s Peacock.
