Things you didn’t like about A Different World

It got way too preachy towards the end.

Thank you!!!

Thank you!!!

Can't stand when Black shows do this. They start to focus on issues that affect the Black community. "Roc" was notorious for this. All that serious shyt. Roc turned into The Wire

Fukk all that. I want to be entertained for 30 minutes.

1st season. I love the show and watch regularly and dont watch it.

This might be sacrilege to some but...Dwayne and Whitley. They were just forced together because Denise left. They had no business being together. I understand the business aspect, I am entertained when watching but thats just because Kadeem and Jasmine are so good. Dwayne shoulda been with Freddie and Whitley with Julian or some other rich nikka. Woulda been interesting to see how seasons 3 and 4 look without that storyline hanging over everything.

Her Bohemian nag Champa incense burning ass was a Lil freak.

the venom

Everything about Colonel Taylor Son Terrance was annoying and corny. From his Wardrobe to his permanent ponytail.

Freddy should have stayed with Shaza and she did her friend dirty by fukking her man but no one ever calls her out on that. Her Bohemian nag Champa incense burning ass was a Lil freak.

Never expounding on Shazza Zulu background and examining his black consciousness and where it grew from.

the venom

That dudes post is from real life experience …
…some spiritual chick had him twisted lol

Their relationship arc played out kinda like the one in The Notebook.

I need to make a show that's shows the real HBCU experience in the South cause it wasn't really anything like this except for how the professors and staff cared about the students. But come registration time tho........ The staff be on they periods.

Dwayne was bad but he wasnt that bad . Didnt old boy threaten to off himself? Guy chasing and chasing and chasing until he gets the girl is a common (and problematic) trope. I mean Dwayne did the exact same shyt with Denise with Whitley unintentionally blocking. Woulda just been Denise in Whitleys place if she stayed. shyt Dwayne mighta been Martin. It was the 80s/early 90s so I do give some grace. The fact that Grownish did the exact same shyt, especially after how it started, is though.

Dwayne would have gotten fed up with Denise's laziness, especially as he matured. He definitely had surpassed her many ways.

And Martin didnt? nikka was a Lt. in the Navy with a whole child and put up with her shyt. shyt Whitley behaved like a spoiled toddler. Keanu or Kim woulda been his best picks if we talking maturity and drive.
