A Different World (2026) Season 1 Review

Welcome to Recap Kickback where we chop it up about television, movies, and music - while being sure to highlight black media any chance we get! Last week, Chappell and Mari talked about the first two episodes of the Netflix reboot of "A Different World". This week they are back to talk about the whole series. This season was all about big moments including, STI scares, romances, and betrayal all taking place on the campus of the most famous fictional HBCU in the country, Hillman College. And of course Chappell and Mari have to reminisce about their time at their prestigious HBCUs. What did you think about the season?
