I never really paid attention to the Fresh Prince of Bel Air since I was a little too young for the show during its run, so I never truly understood how jarring the replacement Aunt Vivian was until just now. The show is on HBO Max and I've been binge watching it, and it's been a blast.
But y'all...
Lightskin Aunt Viv is... not a good fit. She doesn't have the charisma, likability, and she doesn't really seem like a good actress. Maybe I'll see her become more comfortable in the role as the season goes on, but for right now? I cannot see her pulling off some of the more heartfelt scenes between the Divas/her sisters, her relationship with Will, or this iconic moment:
And was it impossible to find another brown or dark skinned actress? Her features being so different, down to the skin tone was really fµck!n dumb.If the show was airing today and pulled this sh!t, Twitter would be up in arms over colorist claims.
Anyway this is weird af. Every time she comes on the screen I'm like
