    I was so glad that Debbie Allen became the director of the show. She helped show the real life happenings on an HBCU.

      Actually Bill Cosby asked her to do it!
      The first episode wasn't very good. So Cosby wanted it to reflect and be more. Debbie Allen took over and Bill Cosby bowed out, it was her baby and he knew he didn't have to worry!

    Not only are these women all natural. There's so many different shades of black beauties here!!! That's one of the reasons why I still love this show.

      when they got a new show runner in season 2, she apparently made all the girls take their weaves out. you'll notice in season one, some of them had weaves and stuff. but in season 2 there were a lot less weaves and more natural hairstyles.

    Here's our chance to make it
    If we focus on our goals
    If they dish it, we can take it (Oh)
    Just remember that you've been told
    It's a different world
    It's a different world
    It's a different world
    From where you're coming from
    Mmmmhmmm
    From where you're coming from!

      It was too influential, that’s why they canceled it. The black collegiate percentage was at an all time high when this show was on the air…too much of a positive influence on our community, so it had to go.

But are we not gonna talk about Jaleesa talents dancing in this sequence I mean the girl was super talented in the show and what gets me about the dance is her swagger and the in your face attitude she gave those girls in the end.
