how DARE you!
I believe Lenny Kravitz was smashing both of them. I don't know if it was at the same time, but you never know.Is a threesome out of the questions?
Cosby messed up man...
this is the PERFECT way for BET to launch some original programming...
A 2 hour movie showing where everyone is now...
who got married, divorced died went broke went to war etc...
and introduce some of the original cast's KIDS who are NOW going to enter Hillman as Freshman...
with Dwayne due to some "event" in hi life joining the faculty.
Imagine them tackling issues every week like Trayvon's verdict, twerking, Kendrick's Control verse, social media, job market, tuition/loans, war, etc.
they would get a HUGE cross section of the demographic...
this is such a NO BRAINER...
even the advertising for the show should be mostly social media and cast reunions flashbacks, more money for the syndication rights...
shit if CW and UPN can do it for 90210
why NOT us?!?!?!
* BTW if they actually do this in a year I need the mods to archive this thread for the lawsuit
I still stand by this post.

‘A Different World’: Cast Members and Crew Tell the Oral History
In 1987, one of television’s most influential shows was born. The stars, writers, and producers look back on their years at Hillman College.
Didn't know that Debbie was that active and responsible. It changed a lot from the first season, and became more of a black college.
and they can't reboot Different World, but have a million Tyler Perry shows.

Yup she was a major reason for the focus to social issues and more modern more BLACK topics

Of the three I would have picked Kinu. Show-wise she was the only one who turned out to have a great career and be about something. I never got his infatuation with Whitley.
Wasn't Whitney a corporate art buyer?
Then a teacher?
If we did a update I'm sure she became either a teacher or art buyer in Japan.
I mean if you think about Denise's trek, I dont think she would have stayed in College on the show anyway. She was a horrible student for that one season she was there anyway.
I still go with Whitley. It seemed like he was her calming force and kept her grounded.
Yeah Denise was that free spirit but usually marriage and motherhood grounds folk.
Look at Denise NOW. She matured but still got that wild side and got a solid career.
Wait a minute I'm tripping...
I forgot Dwayne was with Freddie
On the show and in real life!

A Different World dilemma - that episode where Dwayne and Ron fought over percentages with The Baseball Grammar Game
HOW SHOULD HAVE IT BEEN SPLIT OR SHOULD IT HAVE BEEN SPLIT IN THE FIRST PLACE??? Lets establish two things.. 1. Ron did contribute to the core idea so Dwayne shouldn't be 100% sole creator 2. Ron ONLY gave the core idea so his % should NOT be 50-50 Even tho Dwayne did the heavy lifting...

Kinu, never saw what the big deal was on Lisa Bonet she was just a weird chic to me. Then she started dating Romeo Blue aka Lenny Kravitz before he became "Lenny Kravitz". When Lenny Kravitz first came out Black folks thought he was fucking weird. When I was at Xavier in the early 90s there was a broad in one of my classes this chic looked like Cree Summer's clone only not with the Earth mother goddess foolishness. I remember her telling people not to call her Freddie. That bitch was fine with a capital F and Xavier at that time had some of the coldest Black women in the country.

Sinbad is thanking fans for the support he's seen in the wake of his first public appearance since having a stroke in 2020.
The comedian and actor made a virtual appearance at the A Different World HBCU College Tour event on Feb. 29 at Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia, to join his fellow castmates from the beloved sitcom to raise money for HBCU scholarships and encourage enrollment. (He played Coach Walter Oakes on the sitcom, which aired for six seasons from 1987 to 1993.)
"Man, that was so cool. A Different World going to Atlanta, going to Morehouse College and on campuses and getting a chance to be on Zoom and say something to the kids," Sinbad said in an Instagram video he shared on Monday. "It's wild that the kids even know who I am. That's beautiful."

The video featured him marveling at a clip of his appearance, which captured very loud cheers from the audience when he appeared on screen at the event.
"Thank you to everybody who's been praying for me and saying good things and supporting me during this time in my life. It means a lot to me," he shared.
Sinbad finished his message by promising fans they'll be seeing more of him. "Expect to see more of me soon," he said, adding, "You better believe it. Miracles happen."
He further wrote in the caption, "Thank you for your prayers, support, and positive thoughts. They’ve carried me this far and will see me through to the finish line. It really is a different world out here!"
In Oct. 2020, the comedian's family shared in a statement on his website that he had suffered a stroke due to a blood clot traveling from his heart to his brain. Two years after the health scare, the Jingle All the Way star's family posted a photo of him learning how to walk again on Instagram. At the time, the family said in a statement, "He continues to receive therapy, fighting for every inch. His progress is nothing short of remarkable."
Monday's Instagram update was the first from the star himself since his family's message in Nov. 2022.
