Check out some our top moments from “The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air” in no particular order.

1. The Theme Song (Extended Version)

Some 24 years ago, Will Smith debuted his classic sitcom, “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.” The show is old enough to be an adult that has graduated from college. Think about that while looking over 24 of our favorite moments from the show! One for each year!

2. Every Time Jazz Got Tossed Out Of The House

Did Jazz ever get to walk out of the Banks residence? It doesn’t look like it to us!

3. Self Defense 101

The takeaway from this moment was some unconventional advice on self defense: If you can’t beat them, make them think you’re crazy!

4. “Shake something, dammit!”

When Will couldn’t bust a move to make it rain, Carlton had some of his best moves ready to go. Too bad his mom and sister were in the audience.

5. Aunt Vivians Dance Audition- Fresh Prince of Bel Air

Aunt Viv was getting a little apprehensive about turning 40, so she decided to slay a dance audition in front of two haters. The icing on the cake was her snap at the end.

6. To Hell With Him!

Will almost couldn’t hold it together after getting ditched by his dad again. Will was calm at first, but his touch façade slowly began to crack as he tried to list all the reasons he didn’t want his dad around anyway.

7. Are You For Real?

Will couldn’t handle it when he found out exactly how many accessories Tisha Campbell-Martin was wearing when they got trapped in a basement. Safe to say there was not another date after this!

8. RIP, Trevor

Hilary is hilariously self-absorbed. She couldn’t even grasp the fact that her fiancé Trevor accidently died while proposing to her on TV.

9. The Temptations

Will put the lip synching skills to use again when he fell in step with Uncle Phil for “My Girl” by The Temptations.

10. What Had Happened Was…

What Had Happened Was…

11. Sister, Sister

Who didn’t love it when Aunt Viv and her sisters would do their “diva” call out at family gatherings?! The ladies started a trend among tons of families and circles of friends with this clip!

12. Aunt Viv 2.0

The public at large was confused when Janet Hubert was replaced as Aunt Viv, but Will and DJ Jazzy Jeff poked a little fun at the recasting while supplying their own side-eye.

13. Hilary Betrays Uncle Phil

Hilary went way too far when she finally got a job for being a gossip. When Uncle Phil questioned her common sense, she sobbed, “I don’t have any common sense!” Then Nicky kicked Will in the shin.

14. Carlton performs with Tom Jones

Carlton loves to do his signature moves to Tom Jones’ “It’s Not Unusual,” but it was a dream for him to perform a remix of his woes with the crooner.

15. Momma Noooo!

Will reacted much the same way most adults would when catching their parents in bed: Having a mini breakdown. So awkward and so funny. Hilary’s reaction, though? Perfection.

16. Carlton Faces Discrimination

Carlton had to learn the very difficult lesson that money and privilege do not exempt him from being the target of racial profiling.

17. Will Gets Shot

“The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” was a sitcom, but ish could get real every so often. When Will got shot, Carlton was ready fire back. Will had to get him to drop his weapon.
