Re: Stereotypes:: Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
The butler's manner of speech.
EDIT: Just saw you only wanted steroetypes with Will Smith's character. Oh well. |
Re: Stereotypes:: Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
Not really a stereotype, but he manages to date only black girls at his mostly white school.
I guess its more of an indication of what the producers thought the audience would tolerate. |

in one of the shows he is the star of the bel aire prep basketball team, even though he obviously sucks based on the opening credits. [/ QUOTE ] Will Smith came to my high school and I saw him play ball. He most certainly does not suck. Edited to say: Ok, in case this wasn't clear, I was not being serious |

Re: Stereotypes:: Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
Sounds like a BORING assignment. You could make it passably interesting to argue that the Bel Air relatives are sterotypical WASPS.

All the white kids worship the hip black guy.

Re: Stereotypes:: Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
isn't there a scene in the pilot where uncle phil tells him that he used to follow Malcolm X around, but now he's all WASP-y and boring? seems like following that transformation might be worth your time.
although, in reality he did what most hippies and radicals did: he grew up and sold out. Jerry Rubin became a stockbroker. So it goes. |
Re: Stereotypes:: Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
Isn't there a bunch of graffiti in the opening scene also?
|
Re: Stereotypes:: Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
Yes, it is when he is spraying graffitti in the beginning and the police comes up. He wasn't spraying it with a white friend. The stereotype is that only blacks would do such a thing
