Ah the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. A legend amongst teenagers in the 90s all over the globe. With an opening theme that instantly made you the cool kid if you knew the rap off by heart, and a 'The Cartlon' dance move that would precede flossing by around 30 years, yet hold far more cultural value than the floss ever could. It was a show of family values, love, playful rivalry and overall wholesomeness, which is rather unique when you consider that The Simpsons and Futurama were airing around the same time.

So today we wanted to take a moment to spare a thought for the cast of 8 amazing actors who came together to form the cast of one of the most iconic shows of the 90s, and of course the humor that they shaped in all of us. So hold on to your seats as you step into a trip through memory lane that could have you laughing so hard you'll fly out of your chair like Jazzy Jeff getting thrown onto the lawn again.

  • These two had some of the best on-screen chemistry in the 90s. A combination of the rivalry of Tom and Jerry, with the playfulness of Bugs Bunny and just a touch of the intimacy of Home Improvement. They really had it all, including these hysterical moments of sarcasm.

  • Well, it is hard to deny the wooing powers of DJ Jazzy Jeff, the finest and freshest vinyl scratcher in the west. But this line takes his prowess to new heights. We will never quite match his level of smoothness, but at the same time we could do without being repeatedly thrown out of a front door. So maybe some things are best left as they are.
