This series (which got a second season renewal fairly early on) seems to be very popular.

The casting, while not perfect, has been very solid, imo.

Vernee Watson and Daphne Maxwell Reid are both appearing in the season finale. It would not surprise me if OG "Aunt Viv" makes an appearance in season 2, at some point.

And by OG "Aunt Viv", I mean the actress who portrayed her, Janet Hubert.

They were actually in the episode before the finale

 

I love this show and I loved the casting. I like how each character felt different form the original while still embodying them in their own unique way. LOVED Hillary and that she isnt an airhead in this. She has improved the most

I'll download it and see what's going on. I actually watched 1883 (Yellowstone prequel) and bawled my ass off, but that's another story in another thread, lol!

The casting is really good imo. I actually think the actor who plays Carlton is good at playing angst, which is what I think they wanted Carlton to be like for most of the first season. 

Like @Noel, I didn’t get any type of vibe that Will would be eliminated since the story of Bel Air is about his life there.

I don’t think they will kill Will off at all. What happens with the real life celebrity has nothing to do with what goes on with this series.

Leave it to some so-called "wokesters," though, to demand that Will (the character) be removed from the series after what Will (the actor) did at the Oscars.

    • How are we 50+ episodes in and Hayley has had little to no independent character development? She started off as one of the show's heavy hitters in the first couple of weeks due to storyline but has faded into the background more and more every subsequent week. They've made no effort to integrate the character into the canvas outside of being Bill's "child bride." It's really bothering me because I like the actress and I think she has potential. Can she get a friend or at least scenes without Bill? I'm now at the point where I like Derek more than Ashley. That's how bad things have gotten with her. The actress isn't terrible but she isn't very good either and the writing for her been abysmal.
    • I find it so odd people have such a hard time with Kat’s wardrobe, I just assume they haven’t been exposed to much diversity.

      I assume no commentary is required. Oh, hell, here is my girl Dani in a totally different & new pose, may it reappear with some frequency. One question: did any of us have any idea what kind of special friends Pamela & Dani really were? Upon reflection just yesterday Dani said, " I need time to figure out the kind of woman I am." What are we to make of this? Is this the kind of woman she has figured out? If so, odd that it only took a day.
    • I dressed exactly like Kat at her age. Have you been there? I lived there for a decade and I miss it.
    • Making her Chrissie was inspired, but if they hadn't gotten Roger and Holly back, would it have meant as much? Lord, save us from another Shayne. No offense to KdP, but she's just not my cup of tea. Maybe she just upped her game for OLTL, but she's uninspired on GL. Well, you can't have a "bad" Reardon. They could've said Chelsea was the oldest child of the oldest Reardon.

    • After watching a couple of those live performances, I think you may be right.  
    • 1999, the last great Daytime Emmys.
    • I'll add to what others have said -- the Xander and Sarah stuff today was really, really good. Kudos to both actors, and to the writers who gave them interesting and real dialogue that explained both characters' points of view. It's unbelievable how much better DAYS is under these new writers.
    • Yeah I don't think he had to prerecord his scenes for the Nurses Ball, unless there was some acoustical/technical situation the show needed.
