The Cast Of The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air Took A Reunion Picture And The Original Aunt Viv Was NOT Happy About It
So for those that missed it, Alfonso Ribeiro posted a picture of the living members of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (RIP Uncle Phil) to his Instagram the other day.
It turns out they reunited for a charity for Hillary. Was it a bummer that the classic show wasn’t coming back in some Fuller House capacity? I don’t know. Will Smith is like a kajillionaire, right? And with Uncle Phil dead, all you have left is a wise cracking 48-year old in Philly, the three annoying Banks kids, a suicidal Jeffery (if he’s still a butler at this age), and boring ass Aunt Viv 2 that was just happy she was able to slide in and steal Uncle Phil from Aunt Viv 1. Will was definitely the star of the show, but Uncle Phil was the rug that tied the room together.
However whenever the Fresh Prince is in the news, there is always a chance that Aunt Viv I will pop off. And pop off she did.
Ooooooh kill’em Aunt V!
And put some hot sauce on top!
Is it bullshit that Aunt V 1.0 couldn’t get an invite to the picture? Of course. It’s like the 2008 Celtics not inviting Ray Allen to their reunion (Nicky is Scot Pollard in this comparison). Aunt Viv buried her TV family a long time ago and has gone with the Scorched Earth policy with all things involving the show since. And you know what? I can’t blame her one bit. I imagine the original Daario Naharis didn’t love losing a paycheck and some scenes next to a naked Khaleesi to a new actor. The first Becky from Roseanne couldn’t have been thrilled getting replaced on a popular show. And poor Judy from Family Matters just flat out disappeared altogether. Poof, vamoose, son of a bitch. So Aunt Viv’s wrath is completely understandable. And not only that, it’s funny. “Media Hoe” is my new insult to anyone that is remotely involved with the media. Whether it’s a reporter, actor, or someone that is published on either the TV, radio, movies, newspaper, or internet. Carlton was already the nerdy fuck in everyone’s eyes. Now he’s the nerdy media hoe that was Will’s toilet paper.

And let this be a lesson to all the other members of the Banks family. You post anything about the Fresh Prince, Aunt V pt. 1 will be ready to put your ass on blast in a nanosecond. And you will have no chance of ever getting a role in Perfection Is Not A Sitcom Mom*.
