Always loved the first mom better, sad to here she's nuts. So weird to see this stuff so long after the fact

It's just something that echoes in Hollywood. Steven Seagal is still pissed at Jean-Claude van Damme over a scuffle they had at Sylvester Stallone's house back in the early 90s.

The man is genuinely funny, and it was nice to get some real clarification there.

The funny part is they were doing her a favor by keeping it quiet all these years about why she was fired. But she just wont let it die.

I didn't know (or care to find out) he's doing some stand up. He sounds quite funny and charming. Good for him.

Did anyone get to attend any of the other events?

The silent auction was also a great idea. Sadly I was not the winning bidder in the "Butler for Day" package (Joseph Marcell was very generous to donate his time like that!) Does anyone know how much that went for?

It was a shame though that this worthy cause was still not enough for Janet Hubert and Daphne Reid to resolve their differences. We can only hold out hope for next year. Hope to see some of you there!





Will Smith actually shows up to these things? That's crazy. Sweet Fancy Moses Tatyana Ali is still smokin hot. God I had the hots for her. Call me crazy but I always liked the second Vivian better.

Fresh Prince has always been a guilty pleasure of mine. I've always really liked that show.

Ok that was pretty stupid but I did actually laugh out loud when Mr. Belding came on.

Re: Why didn't Uncle Phil pick up Will from the airport?

Ah, Carlton. First he was Ricky Schroeder's rich friend in "Silver Spoons," then he got a spin-off that showcased Carlton's family and homelife (and a sidekick cousin coming to live with him from Philly).

Re: Why didn't Uncle Phil pick up Will from the airport?

I thought Alfonso Robiero hated being stereotyped as Carlton. Did he just finally say fuck it and go with the flow?

Re: Why didn't Uncle Phil pick up Will from the airport?

Was this their way of virally promoting FreshCon '13? This might be the year I finally make it to one of these.

Fucking awesome! Man, there's no way Bradley Cooper & Heather Graham's interview could've come close to that.

You mean you haven't received the preshow tickets with the gold stamped Geoffrey on them yet? Those went out weeks ago.

FYI, Graham Norton interviews all the guests at once (with an additional guest or musical guest coming in at the end sometimes). I love the format. The interviews seem very rehearsed. But they're always a lot of fun.

Never miss an episode. His show is weekly, so he usually gets the best guests. There's been some epic panels in the past. Lots of multiple A-listers on the sofa at once.

If you don't have Direct TV or someone supplying BBC USA, episodes are usually posted on Youtube.

I love that Smith embraces The Fresh Prince of Bel Air and DJ Jazzy Jeff. A lot of stars are embarrassed by their beginnings.

Alfonso probably got a free trip to London from Will just to be part of that bit.

Re: Why didn't Uncle Phil pick up Will from the airport?

Alfonso looked like he lost some weight. Probably since he's now married to a hot young blonde, needs to keep those carbs low.

I enjoyed seeing that video. I especially liked seeing Heather Graham grooving with the music too.

this has brought me back from the dead. first post in 3 years, and only second post in about 5 years.

full confession: i went to a My Two Dads convention in November 2008, and I must have been slipped a roofie or something, because I just woke up (someone must have posted in 2010 to throw my fellow FreshPrincians off the scene of my disappearance). Is it true Will Smith has a son who acts? And on a bigger note, are my rare DVDs still valuable and when is the next 20% off sale at DeepDiscountDVD?

Re: Why didn't Uncle Phil pick up Will from the airport?

It's depressing enough that Will didn't receive a ride from his family from the airport, but here are more depressing things that happened: http://www.funnyordie.com/articles/c...e-fresh-prince

including:

7. Uncle Phil employs a servant.
8. Uncle Phil's servant regularly emasculates him in front of his family.

With today's passing of Uncle Phil, I truly believe we'll never know the answer to this mystery.

Re: Why didn't Uncle Phil pick up Will from the airport?

A sad day in Fresh Prince land, I hope the answer is revealed to us in due time. In the meantime, we need to form a panel to speak on the passing of Uncle Phil at the next convention, who would like to volunteer?
