Set in modern-day America, Bel-Air is a serialized one-hour dramatic analogue of the 90โ€™s sitcom โ€œThe Fresh Prince of Bel-Airโ€ that leans into the original premise: Willโ€™s complicated journey fromโ€ฏthe streets of West Philadelphia to the gated mansions of Bel-Air. With a reimagined vision, Bel-Air will dive deeper into the inherent conflicts, emotions and biases that wereโ€ฏimpossible to fully explore in a 30-minute sitcom format, while still delivering swagger and nods to the original show.
