Default What was up with Will crying all of a sudden?

I remember three epsiodes.

1. The one about his dad.

2. When Carlton took those pills

3. Will was in the hospital and Carlton had a gun.

He was going a little overboard with those tears, wasn't he.

Me neither. I think he had every right to cry. Those were very emotional episodes.

Well, I admit, it was hard to see Will acting serious.

What did he say Retro?

"Why he don't want me man". I remember us all laughing and impersonating him the very next day.

You are right. Will acted so goofy that it was hard to take him seriously.

have you ever heard of acting? just because it is a sitcom, doesn't mean that the actor has to be funny all the time. I think will really showed what a good actor he was by having these dramatic episodes.

But Will should have not been given those CRYING parts because Viewers were so used to him being goofy so it was hard to accept him in a serious role. Crying Parts only was supposed to be for Vivian or Ashely. Not Will, Carlton, or Hilary

Not really. Most of those scenes were obviously serious scenes that it is irrelavent that the viewers are "used" to him being goofy. Unless one doesn't know how to change his or her emotions for different scenes?

For example, the scene with his dad when he yelled "THE HELL WITH HIM" I realize that he wasnt being "goofy" or "silly" just trying to block out his anger and sadness which he couldn't do anymore. And still, I think that scene was a good scene.
