The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air reboot is getting two seasons on the new streaming service, Peacock.. Will Smith stated in a YouTube video Tuesday “the deal has closed with Peacock with an unprecedented two-season order from a pitch,” Also he said in the video “What really clicked in my mind when I saw the trailer that Morgan did [was] the concepts in the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air reimagined as a drama. A real kid from West Philadelphia modern day, a Black family in Bel-Air, the Carlton character, a Black young Republican … the heat that would be stirred up by these characters.”
