MAKE SENSE, HER AND BILL = Great friends, throw in a few others, like her beautiful sis Claire. love ADIFFERENT WORLD. BEST comedy blk comedy, cosby and also what's happening. few others. yep.
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!
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.
Charnele Brown always gave such joy filled performances! She LIVED her character in scenes like this one and the wedding ep when Dwayne made his "Please baby PLEASE!" declaration! Her smile is from within!
I related to her character so much because she was dark skinned just like me, which was so refreshing to see back then. I loved how her character was smart, loyal, and hardworking, and sweet but not a pushover.
I remember when i was a kid seeing this show when it aired on tv in 90'.....This episode of "Different World"and the movie "School Daze" was one of the reasons why I attended an HBCU....#Tennessee State Univ...Go Big Blue....

I think Cree Summers is a bit too. Read up on her a little bit. She has a very interesting voice acting history and familial history. Unrelated: she's definitely a cool person.
@@greenbrown7776 GOT INTO COSBY, middle class black AWESOME parents=sure did,and the kids, beautiful home, loved it all, much love there. LOVE A DIFFERENT WORLD always, so real,and real is BEST..." love it.
@@greenbrown7776 Super glad you watched but no Cosby...oh no, that is a shame. Because Bill created a show about HBCU life to show that families like the Cosbys were created by HBCUs. Yes, HBCUs--along with the black Church--created the black middle class. That was the point of the show, to introduce all the white viewers of the Cosbys of this 'different world' from where you all come from (black colleges).
Jalessa was hilarious at the end: G-I-L-B-E-R-T Gilbert Hall's the one for me A-B-C-D-E-F-G Gilbert Gilbert. G-I-L-B-E-R-T Gilbert Hall's the one for me A-B-C-D-E-F-G Gilbert Gilbert OOH OOH !!!!!
When freddie finally got the damn steps down!!!!!! One of my fav eps...wish it was tv like this again. Watching a different world is one of the reason I couldn't wait to get to college lol.
Robin Quincy You forgot the main part where Whitney was a major bitch and dogged freddie out! Only in the last 7 minutes is when Whitney had change of heart!
You must have never seen many step shows? lol This was a very simple version of the African step tradition, I've seen my wife's step vids from the mid 00s and some of their moves were Bruce Lee level.😏
daniesabria, I remember watching this episode when it first aired back in 1988/89, I was @ S.C State . I would've been Freddy, but unlike her I would've been kicked off the team permanently. I am one black woman who has no rhythm.
+Sapphire586 hey it happens!! lol don't worry bout it..ive been teaching my aunt to do the original running man for damn near 20 years now 😂😂😂 she still can't do it lmao
This show gave Me hope on so many levels. Growing up in the hood, it showed Me that there is a whole world out here. Not all of my ppl out here doing wrong . I'm a Living Testimony and Living Witness . I attended the Prestigious Alabama State University . Graduated in 2001 with a Degree in Business 🐝 🖤💛🖤💛 🐝
👍🏾 Didn’t attend that school, but I am from “The Gump,” 😂 so I’m all to well familiar with it. I attended AAMU in Huntsville. 🥰. #aamualumni #gobulldogs #hbcu #gohornets
I love how they tried to make it like Freddy had no rhythm and she was the main one up there getting it besides Jaleesa. You don't go from what Freddy was doing to that. Cree had rhythm already. But I believed that she didn't. She's a good actress
LOVED THIS SHOW! especially this episode! i still remember the lyrics! “A, B, C, D, E ,F ,G. Gilbert is the one for me.” A-B-C-D-E-F-G, Gilbert Hall’s the one for me We can’t help it if we’re great, for Gilbert Girls it’s our natural state Do tell we’re fly Do tell we’re fine, now sliiiiiiiiiiiiiide, Hip Hop Snobby girls from Libby Hall, next to us you are flowers on the wall Ask the fellas who stand in line outside our door, cause they say that we are fine We don’t wear hair weaves we know how to dress, we’re smart, clean and cool, hot and fresh Hit It, Now Pump It, Do The Butt Do tell we’re fly Do tell we’re fine, watch us blow your mind 1-2-3-4, Great Great Great Great G-I-L-B-E-R-T, Gilbert Hall’s the one for me A-B-C-D-E-F-G, Gilbert Gilbert G-I-L-B-E-R-T, Gilbert Hall’s the one for me A-B-C-D-E-F-G, Gilbert Gilbert
Idc what anybody say that Dawn Lewis dance so smooth, like she doesn't think about it she just does it.! Every episode she has danced in I've enjoyed it!
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.
I watched this a few years back when I wasn’t going to school, now because of A Different World, it’s inspired me to go back to school to get an Associate, and hopefully transfer to Virginia State
My favorite is the wedding with Dwayne begging "Baby PLEEEASE!!" I get goosebumps recalling it lol. I think I saw him in interview saying he'd forgotten some lines and improvised. Best darn improvisation you could ask for!
I am 40yrs old & watched this every time it came on. And with it being on Prime now, can watch it all over again. Man, HBCUs just hit different This & Living Single all day everyday lol
I was in the 5th grade when this episode aired! My 2 sisters, 3 of our friends, and I, LEARNED THE STEPS..LOL!!!! We showed off our skills on the play ground at school and at home!!!! I miss my childhood!!!! Those were GOOD DAYS!!!!♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️☺
Everyone here is taking about black beauty and Jasmine, Cree and Charlene’s talents as well as Debbie directing which she made the show amazing over the years. 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.
I remember watching this in elementary school wanting the whole outfit corefram ( shiny shoes), off the shoulder outfit and the biker shorts with the shirt over it. 😁 Different World brings back so many memories!😁😁
Back then it was a necessity in order to be successful in acting. Many of these actors came from theater backgrounds where they were trained and required to have some kind of singing abilities.
Mariamyupperz two years ago the main writer for the show wanted to reboot a different world sitcom again but had and is still having a hard time in getting the green light to go ahead with it....it would be cool to have another awesome sitcom like this on tv again
This NEVER gets old!!! I was talking with a friend about an A Different World reboot. Jaleesa is standing in front of Gilbert Hall and it pans to this. And the final moments, she is up in the porch saying A-B-C-D-E-F-G GILBERT, GILBERT OOHHHHAAAAAHHHH
@bravebear6975 because our "beauty regiment" memics one that is unnatural to our phenotype. You're right, though... it's really getting old to see BW coveting the traits of other groups.
When It's A Different World first aired. Some of us who was in high school watch this show. It actually influenced us to enroll in college after highschool. Bill Cosby did state that getting a higher education is good for our youth. Today I do talk to the youth about college.
LAWD, I still remember this routine lol.. I would rewind it a gazillion times to get it right!! 👏🏽👏🏽I went to Howard bc of this show (and School Daze).. I'd give anything to go back to those days..
ugh.!!..TV crushes are the worsst ...you kno ...that whole... you can look ...but ya cant touch ...... ....my crush was todd bridges from different strokes ...you prolly was NOT even born then LOL...
I was so glad that Debbie Allen became the director of the show. She helped show the real life happenings on an HBCU.
MAKE SENSE, HER AND BILL = Great friends, throw in a few others, like her beautiful sis Claire. love ADIFFERENT WORLD. BEST comedy blk comedy, cosby and also what's happening. few others. yep.

Cree Summer is the epitome of a quirky black girl!
She got it though.
Ok fine, but she rocked that step though!!
Jasmine Bischof Cree Summers isn’t, but Freddie Brooks is!

Fun fact her and Kadeem Harrison dated for years all through the show too

@@blaqpirate Right, I think the line from Whitley was "those who can step, those who cant, step aside". Thats what Whitley told Freddie.
@@soniarena5250 man that was one of the coldest moments from Whitney I ever seen on the show! And that's including the very first season!

Debbie Allen nailed the HBCU experience. I was a student at Bethune-Cookman University when A Different World premiered. #blackexcellence

Me too lol!
Haha! Yes! Same here. 😊🖤💙✨
Omg! I did too 😂
This was REAL TV. I wish I could go back to the 90's.

my favorite different world episodes, ever
mine too!!!
what episode is it
+Lakeisha Mccall "A Stepping Stone"
aaliyah houston A Different World rules.
My favorite is the wedding with Dwayne begging "Baby PLEEEASE!!" I get goosebumps recalling it lol.
I think I saw him in interview saying he'd forgotten some lines and improvised. Best darn improvisation you could ask for!
DEBBIE ALLEN IS A GENIUS
I completely forgot Jasmine worked with Debbie on Season 1 of Fame. I wish she would've stuck around longer.
I love Debbie Allen's choreography! Awesome scene.
Jaleesa gave me chills!!Remember this like yesterday!!!!
they ate this UPPPP
I could not work on Thursday nights when I was in high school because I had to watch The Cosby Show and A Different World
Hahaha! I refused to have Thursday night classes when I was in college for this same very reason! 😆🤣
I am 40yrs old & watched this every time it came on. And with it being on Prime now, can watch it all over again.
Man, HBCUs just hit different
This & Living Single all day everyday lol
Go Freddy! You learned that step routine. All the girls were awesome. Loved the step.
The dancer standing on the end (on the right side) is Lisa, a fly girl from "In Living Color."
Thank you I could not remember where I had seen her before and actually there are a couple of girls outside of Jasmine Guy who were in School Daze.
I thought she looked familiar
We know this already
There were so many black show back in they day.
This is still one of my favorite episodes, every time this airs on TVOne; I gotta watch it.

Not Cree. Whitley could sing in real life but she didn't on this show.
@@CharlotteDrillsAndBeefs yes she did! Do you not remember the Gladys Knight episode???? And Cree does sing in real life.
I love this show this most historic black show that they ever made to watch
My goodness that brought tears to my eyes from the memories of my childhood. I remember Freddie was struggle to learn dance and then she killed it
I know Debbie Allen had to have coregraphed this...probably with Jasmine Guy.
Jasmine Bischof yes .
@@delshaerenee3 Noooo, Jasmine Guy was a professionally trained r&b and classical dancer before and after A Different World!
Jasmine Guy and Debbie Allen was om Fame together
Jasmine went to Alvin Ailey
Wasn't Julisa a dancer? Thought I saw that somewhere

omg pleeeeease bring a reboot! There are no College Sitcoms and we need one!!
Mariamyupperz two years ago the main writer for the show wanted to reboot a different world sitcom again but had and is still having a hard time in getting the green light to go ahead with it....it would be cool to have another awesome sitcom like this on tv again
Mariamyupperz yes it is on BET it's called Squad with Anika Noni Rose from the movie Dreamgirls
Lava22 you that's a drama series. Not a sitcom.
Well there's Grownish- the spin off of Blackish. But being 21st century- doubt it will compare.
I remember watching this back in the days as little kid you know we don't have no tv show like this no more
I’ll never forget this!!!!!!! Inspired me to attend a HBCU!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽❤️✨✨✨✨
This was before hair weaves became cool and good in the late 90s. Black women used to look so awesome on TV rocking their natural hair
ApartmentViews yesss 😍❤
I was thinking the same thing!
ApartmentViews they had it remember the episode when somebody ask Denise about her hair she said I yes is my hair I bought it didn't I
Yes they did. I'm glad we have gone back to it. I'm loving my natural curly hair.
CeeJay611 same. I love my natural hair
I still love watching this show. Brings back good memories.
I was doing my Honours in varsity when I rewatched this show on TH-cam. One of the best things I had ever done.
I love how extra Dawn is
Omg. One of my favorite episodes! Back when tv was about something!
Go Freddie, Go!!!!!
This is why TV in the 1980s and 1990s was so awesome!
This is my show.. I can watch A Different World over and over again!! This episode was classic!!
watching this in 2016...love it!!!
omg same
Watching this at the end of 2016 and still love it too! lol
Watching in 2018
Watching this over and over never gets old. Those were just being fun and classy at the same time. I gotta get their DVD set!! ❤🖤💚😊
This sent chills through me! Back down memory lane..
I was in 2 step teams because of THIS episode!!! And I STILL love stepping!!!
Jalissa brought that back up strong didn't she? 🤣👌✔️
THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES AND IM A 90s baby . I LOVE GOOD SHOWS LIKE THIS
This scene still gives me the chills. Those sistas were cold back then and now.
LOL y'all see Dwayne in the back dancing hahaha1
I saw that. He was channeling Roger from What's Happening. 😁😁😁
gnisha777 I just looked lol
Not to be exaggerative but this is More innovative than a lot of these step shows now
when tv was good . the cosby show , a different world, living single, the jeffersons, good times, 227, amen, real tv
This NEVER gets old!!! I was talking with a friend about an A Different World reboot. Jaleesa is standing in front of Gilbert Hall and it pans to this. And the final moments, she is up in the porch saying
A-B-C-D-E-F-G
GILBERT, GILBERT
OOHHHHAAAAAHHHH
This brings back good ole school memories. This is one of my absolute favorite episodes. I still remember the routine. ❤️
I LOVE the pride that black women had back then.
"Back Then"????
"We dont wear hear weaves....." wish we could still live up to that.
Just black women, or other women that wear them too? Why so much focus on our beauty regimens and no one else's? This ish getting old.
@bravebear6975 because our "beauty regiment" memics one that is unnatural to our phenotype. You're right, though... it's really getting old to see BW coveting the traits of other groups.

Proud HBCU ALUM of TWO HBCU universities. That prepared me to become a doctor. Thank you to Bill Cosby Spike Lee and Debbie Allen 🙏🏽✌🏽✊🏽
Definitely a part of my childhood and always fills me with Black Pride. #ADifferentWorldForever #ImAn80sBaby
Such a classic scene!!!
When It's A Different World first aired. Some of us who was in high school watch this show. It actually influenced us to enroll in college after highschool. Bill Cosby did state that getting a higher education is good for our youth. Today I do talk to the youth about college.
Gilbert Gilbert ooooop!!!! Love It

Yasssss!!! They kilt that! I love this episode! And that scene! No twerking just stepping. 😊
