You immediately recognize the song if it starts playing somewhere, and chances are you know all the characters, even if you never followed the show religiously season after season. A hit on SBT screens, the sitcom “Um Maluco no Pedaço” catapulted Will Smith’s career and is still an unparalleled reference for Brazilians today. But do you know what the cast members look like today, almost 30 years after the series ended?
Aired between 1990 and 1996 on the American network NBC, the series told the story of Will, a poor boy from Philadelphia sent to live with his rich aunt and uncle, the Banks family, in the luxurious neighborhood of Bel-Air in Los Angeles. Through comedy, the attraction discusses racial, social and political conflicts in a society marked by inequality of opportunity.
Check out what the cast looks like in the gallery below.
