Where’s Jada? I didn’t watch this clip but I don’t see her in the group🫤
My children sleep with eye masks and WHITLEY is THEE ONLY one I know who did that!!!!! Love it
Where is Lisa Bonet?? She was the main character , because" A Different World" was a spin-off of The Cosby Show 🤔
never missed an episode one of my favourite shows growing up some amazing actors
I watched the show on reruns as a kid and loved it. I wished I could've gone to a college like Hillman.
I Wish "A Different World" Do a Home Coming Episode Special.
Jaleesa/Dawnn J Lewis looks great. She aged so gracefully.
Grew up watching A Different World, wasn't Lisa Bonet in the first two seasons 🤔
I still watch it like it was just released ‼️❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This show was sending folks college in real life, the enemy saw that n took it off …..just like our brilliant family shows.
i forgot Aretha sang the theme song!
LISA WE WANT TO SEE DENISE…..
OMG I didn’t even recognize Kadeem 😮 I almost thought that was Malcolm Jamal Warner 😅
Where is Lisa Bonet?
They have 2Pac on show
Reruns were on the Max app
Loved that show! ❤️
Jada was busy, I guess😒
❤❤❤
I loved/LOVE this show sooo much!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
While I was in high school, I did not plan to go to college and I remember watching the show, thinking to myself, “that would never be me”but a few years later God made a way for me to attend college and graduate from an HBCU. One of my favorite scenes from the show is the Jesse Jackson speech, “it’s not my aptitude but my attitude that determines my altitude and how high I will go…”
I love this
NO SHOWS LIKE THIS ANYMORE
My very favorite tv show! ❤
My FAV SHOW!!! The wedding, Kim and Ron, Freddie & Shaza 😂❤
The cast had some good pearls of inspiration for the students at CAU my alma mater. Good questions from the students and good answers from the cast.
I wish I was there to meet the cast they're a great cast A Different World from 1987 to 1993
Biden is only inviting them because he wants the black votes!! That would be a NO🤦🏾♀️
This show inspired me to attend college. ❤❤❤
These people here are not just actors they are role models. They were the older cousins, big brothers, big sisters, aunties and uncles who inspired an entire generation to go to college. 🩷
I love this show Freddie is my favorite character. This show made me think that college was all fun no work.
EXCELLENT SHOW🔥👏💪❤💯
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
One of my most favorite shows. I'm so glad they are all alive and well.
❤❤❤
