Fav Character 1) Kim 2)Freddie (did any mention her yet)
Least Fav Character Colonel Taylor's son- was always so annoying to me
Fav Episode 1) Dwayne was a teacher and someone placed the sign "digit hoe" on Charmaine's back. Then there was a trial where Freddie was a "lawyer". 2) When Whitley found out that she was pregnant. 3) episodes with Mrs. Wayne and Mrs. Gilbert 4) All the episodes with Kim and the guy from medical school that she married.
Least Fav Episode When Kim dates the white guy. In my opinion, the whole interracial dating thing was done badly.
Jumping the Shark Jaleesa and Colonel Taylor getting married.

Another recycled character:
Dominic Hoffman, the man we knew as Julian first appeared as Kent Souje, Duke Medical School graduate, who grew up with Whitley.

Definitely one of my favorites
Also Gina's abuse episode was good... I knew quite a few Gina's who were abused when I was in college.. that episode was SPOT ON.

My favorite episodes:
1. When the dorms were stepping against each other and Freddie had no rhytm and Whitley threw her off the team, but Whitley was overthrown. "A-B-C-D-E-F-G, Gilbert Hall is the one for meeeeee..."
2. When Dewayne interrupts Whitley's wedding (I cried like a baby!!)
3. When Whitley was the maid and Dewayne and Kenu broke up.
4. When En Vogue was on there for Ron's club.

I love this episode too!
Also the episode where Kim pledged and she knocked down that wall and Whitley was "Big Sister Gorgeous One, so lovely to behold...."
I miss A Different World!!

Yeah but I need for them to have a show not just a reunion thing. I'd like a homecoming weekend kind of episode. I think that'll be cool.
Fav character: Dwayne. From his obsession with Denise to his love of Whitley, Dwayne was the man! He grew as a character and had MANY obstacles to overcome. (Especially his mom and Whitley) Remember when he went to check up on Denise and thought Martin was her brother. LOL
Least Fav: Denise. I understand the story was supposed to be built around her but they could have shaved off about twenty episodes and moved into the "Aretha Era" (as I like to call it).
Fav Episode: Kim & Gina pledging Alpha Delta Rho. Ron pledging Terrence for " the bold , the brave, the few...Kappa Lambda Nu".  I loved the lesson in brotherhood and humility Ron gave Terrence.
Least Fav: Epi when Denise wanted to go to Greece w/ Maggie and had to get a job instead. I think season 1 was too much of a Cosby show spin-off. I mean her parents were in every episode.
Shark Moment: Dwayne and Whitley's Honeymoon. After that incident during the riots it seems like one thing after another kept happening. Whitley lost her job...they're house gets robbed...Dwayne's interview with Kinu/Kineshiwa goes bad. All I kept thinking was Dwayne should have taken that job the first time they offered it to him, bout no, he wanted to teach to make an impact.

Yes I wasn't even in college when the show first aired, as a matter of fact it was already in syndication by the time I got there but I could identify people I went to school with even then.

I miss that show too. Who didn't want to go to college after seeing that show. (Raising my hand)!! I believe just about everybody wanted to have the HBCU experience. I recommend it because it is such an experience for me.

FAV D.W. CHARACTER: Freddie, she was so funny to me, I love Cree Summer. Whitley was cool too
LEAST FAVORITE D.W. CHARACTER : Terrence and Ron, and basically the whole new class except Charmaine
FAVORITE EPISODE: when Freddie was almost raped (it gave me chills), when that one girl told her class she had AIDS, nearly any of the earlier ones
LEAST FAVORITE: that Thanksgiving where they all meet at Jaleesa and Colonel's house
WHEN D.W. JUMPED THE SHARK !:When all our favorites graduated and the focus shifted to the new class of Freshmen. Things just weren't the way they used to be after that. Oh, and when Ron and Freddie hooked up. That really wasn't believable.
