I never knew about A Different World until my friend showed it to me and he exclaimed: 'I LOVE THIS SHOW' then I started watching it and it was a great spin-off that broke the classic spin-off curse to become a success in its own right (i.e Frasier). The fact that it showed black students in college was a sight for sore eyes if you ask me because most of the college shows seem to have a token black student (no offense to anyone just an observation). I like how they handled some tough issues, like parolees, social issues through the person of Freddie Brooks played wonderfully by Cree Summer, and affirmative action also. This show had some incredible promise to it and presented a realistic view of college life and its pitfalls as well as high points.
This is an incredible show and I would say, if you haven't seen it, watch it. It is really good
score 8/10
