Default I think I may have Figured out why Fresh Prince is a HIT on N@N

In addition to the show being very funny, I think the Main reason is that boys from the ages of 11 to 17 are attracted to Ashely and Hilary and that Girls from the Ages from 11to 17 are attracted to Will and Carlton. Plus these 4 Characters never took a back seat to the PARENTS on the show and was always a major part of the storyline. So watching this show as a preteen and Teenager, you never get bored because the YOUNG ATTRACTIVE characters on the show are always involved in the storyline. I'm just speculating people-lol

I think it has to do MORE with Will Smith being a huge movie star now.

I'm mainly speaking from experience, I watched when I was in High school and college because I was attracted to Hilary and Ashely combined in with the fact that the Two Young Male characters were very Funny. So it's probablty the same reason that teens can't get enough of it

A cute girl can only hold your attention for so long. The show has got to be funny. Having Will Smith star, doesn't hurt either.

Now far as Roseanne, I don' know what the APPEAL is because the Characters are UNATTRACTIVE and Dirty looking, and the show mainly focused on the Parents -lol

I honestly don't know either. As far as I'm concerned that show does not stand the test of time.

Fresh Prince has something for everyone. Hot chicks, superstar Smith, and cool parents.
