Move Over Will Smith, 'The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air' Reboot May Be Getting A Princess

I'll be blunt about it: if you didn't love watching The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, you're probably a liar.

The 90s sitcom had everything: great humor, lovable characters, and zesty plot lines for the whole family to enjoy.

As devastating as it was to say goodbye to the beloved series, it had a great six-year run, and my siblings and I still relished in watching repeats whenever they came to air.  

Recently, rumors have been swirling around about a potential Fresh Prince reboot being in the works after Smith posted an animated picture of the show's cast to Instagram.

While Will Smith is now at the ripe old age of 49 (who is now four years older than James Avery was when he began playing the role of his uncle), we were curious on what this revival would entail.

Would the story still center around Smith and what he'd been up to for the past 20 years, or would we be following a new generation where he becomes the tough yet supportive patriarch every TV family needs?

Well, we hate to burst your bubble, but we still don't know. However, the company that owns the rights to Fresh Prince, has recently filed for a new trade mark, suggesting a potential twist we weren't expecting.

According to TMZ, the company has applied to trademark "Fresh Princess," for a television program, various other media platforms, and merchandise including clothing, footwear, backpacks, and animal collars.

So what does it mean? Well, all signs point to Smith being dethroned with a new princess taking his place!

While there's no word on if Smith will be involved in this speculated revival, but fans are already interested in who would be playing the leading lady.

Personally, my money would be on Smith's 17-year-old daughter, Willow.

Why? Well the young Smith already has a few acting roles under her belt, and like her famous family, has started a budding music career. Plus, she's already has the fresh blood in her!

Who do you think should star in a Fresh Prince reboot?

Andrea Barber Reveals 'Full House' "Crossed A Line" With Kimmy Gibbler

By Meg
Everyone's favorite annoying friend, Kimmy Gibbler, was the punchline to many jokes on Full House. Whether it was one-off remarks about not being wanted in her own home, constantly telling her her feet stink or making fun of her outfit which leads to her confronting Jesse, the show made sure one thing was well known: Kimmy Gibbler was a big joke. "Wouldn't it be great if they could lose the [plane] passengers instead of the luggage?" asks Jesse after Kimmy comes back from a trip. "Go live with a wildebeest," was one from Danny Tanner.

10 Of The Best King Of The Hill Episodes That Will Have You Saying "Yep"

By Alex
King of the Hill was a huge part of our afternoon and evening television schedule when we were growing up. The show ran from 1997 until it was finally wrapped up in 2010, and even though it stretched out until 2010 we are still going to consider it a throwback because of its humble late 90s roots. Hank, Peggy, Bobby and Luanne made us all remember that regardless of the differences in personalities, family (and possibly propane) is the most important thing in a person's life. With that being said, here are 10 of the best King of the Hill
