    THIS JASMINE GUY IS AN ENTIRE VIBE.... She is really apart of the Black Revolution, very underrated. In fact it was interesting to know how the cast was mistreat underrecognized. Such a powerful sitcom for the culture. They were left out of Hollywood, disrespected. I'm not surprised, but glad they were because our most powerful stories and experiences are left out of Hollywood. These shows that our left out are often OUR most PRIZED gift to our communities. Thank you A Different World, I chose Clark Atlanta University because of ALL OF YOU!!

    Jasmine Guy is gorgeously authentic and as real as they come. Debbie Allen is also the real deal. My best friend's daughter had ADHD at age 7 and couldn't sit still. She enrolled her in every kind of sport to try to harness her energy. One Thanksgiving I took her to see a children's musical. All she did was spin and dance and try to jump on the stage. Later I told her mother she should enroll her in dance classes. My friend took her to Ms. Allen's dance academy. Four years later the kid was touring as the lead in The Lion King and under contract with Disney.

    A Different World show motivated my four children all to go to college. I wanted my children to experience what they saw on A Different World. Being from NYC and Giuliani was the Mayor who weaponized the police against Black young men, I was determined to show my three sons in particular, that there is a different world. I kept my daughter in the NY university. All my children graduated from college & universities. Thank you Breakfast Club for bringing Jasmine Guy and Kadeem Hardison to your show. I just loved their characters and them as down to earth people in real life. I watched “A Different World “ and was envious of those who experienced Black college life. I was already married at 19 yr old and was having children. So I went to Baruch College at night and then New Brunswick Seminary for my MDiv. Now at 72 yrs old, I’m pushing my grandchildren to A Different World experience. Jasmine is a deep, insightful Black sister. Kadeem is still true to his character Dwane from A Different World .

    Fun fact…the show was supposed to be based around a white girl first and her experience at an HBCU, played by Meg Ryan before Marisa Tomei. However, it was retooled for the white actress to be a supporting character and for the show to be centered around Denise Huxtable as a spin off of the Cosby Show. Im glad it got retooled a second time around Jasmine and Kadeem 😊!

This guy should be on Complex sneaker episode. He's one of the dudes that made me start collecting sneakers. No hypebeast shit. When I saw White Men Can't Jump, he had on the Infared Jordan 6. As a kid, I was instantly sold. I begged my pops for those shoes. In Spike Lee's School Daze he was rocking the Jordan 2's. Mannnnn they were too clean.

Imagine being from a community where nobody around you went to college and your parents, grand parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc. didn’t receive a college education. And then you watch this show and see educated black people and the opportunities that they’re obtaining because they went to pursue their education. Now you have black kids going to college simply because they saw a TV show, which then helps those black kids gain more opportunities in their lives and progresses the black community. So powerful!!!

    When Debbie Allen became the director of A Different World she made it into a real college experience for millions of us. It's hard to put into words how influential that show was to the belief that I could get a college degree.

    Credit to Debbie Allen as well for her huge role in turning A Different World around. Remember it was a spin off The Cosby Show but it definitely is an iconic Black sitcom. It's great to see Jasmine Guy still about as well. You just know she has a lot of stories to tell from the 90s. 90s is probably the best era of literally everything.

    Jasmine Guy saying they disrespect Bonet, then it disrespects her and all the cast, and willing to walk off a hit show for the poor treatment of someone else is mighty rare and of the utmost ethical integrity. What a glorious human being.

And to know Debbie Allen’s contribution to the actors and the show just makes it even better. I’ve always loved Debbie because I love dance and she made it cool for a black girl to love contemporary dance but know this about her… makes me love her THAT MUCH MORE! #DopeBlackShi

    Best interview ever! The BC guys seem so interested in what they were saying. I watched "A Different World" as a kid and I know 1st hand the affect it had on our culture. Everything they did, said, wore, was a vibe and folks followed it. It was a big deal. It was a positive vibe and this is STILL my favorite sitcom of all time. Thank you Jasmine, Kareem, Debbie, and everyone that was part of making this a success and being a positive part of my childhood! We will never forget!❤️

    They are so real and down to earth. Other actors from classic shows pretend they don't remember anything from their filming days or episodes because that is industry thing to do. Other actors also pretend they don't watch television either.
    I never missed a Thursday night when these two were on. It really was "Must see TV."

    I would like to say as a 37-year-old black male these two were very inspiring. Yes it was a TV show but the realness in what they brought to the show really had an impact on me growing up. I didn’t go to college or anything like that but it just made me see black excellence as it should be. Debbie Allen you are a saint like they said I wish they would’ve kept going with the show it could’ve went on forever.
