Story summary
A Different World, a reboot sequel to the original NBC series from 1987, has become incredibly popular on Netflix, currently topping the platform's Top 10 TV Shows in the U.S. list. The new series follows Deborah, the daughter of Whitley (played by Jasmine Guy) and Dwayne (Kadeem Hardison), as she navigates her college experience at Hillman College. Original cast members such as Cree Summer, Darryl M. Bell, Debbie Allen, Jada Pinkett Smith, Joe Morton, and Dawnn Lewis make guest appearances to bring back fan-favorite characters. DECIDER contributor Joel Keller praised the show for its potential but suggested it would be more effective if it focused more on the present-day students rather than revisiting past alumni. Fans are eagerly awaiting news of a possible Season 2 after finishing all ten episodes of this reboot.
