Will Smith more or less plays himself in this good-natured NBC sitcom. As the show's popular theme song explains, fictional Will's mom sends him away from his rough Philadelphia neighborhood to live with wealthy Uncle Phil and Aunt Vivian in Bel-Air. Will often has fun at the expense of stuck-up cousins Carlton and Hilary.

Uncle Phil (James Avery) takes Will and Carlton (Will Smith, Alfonso Ribeiro) to court when they don't pay their rent on time.

Hilary summons a spirit channeler with the hope of contacting her dead fiancé.

Will and Carlton try to get accepted to an African-American fraternity.

Will fakes illness so he can get out of a date and attend a Playboy-mansion party.
