How to watch 'Bel-Air,' the Fresh Prince reboot we've been waiting for

Wondering how to watch Bel-Air this weekend? You've come to the right place. The highly anticipated Fresh Prince of Bel-Air reboot is finally debuting on Peacock and we'll be the first to admit that our excitement is through the roof. 

The series will premiere on Super Bowl Sunday, where fans will get their first glimpse of the 2022 take on the Will Smith-led sitcom and the Banks family. 

Here's everything you need to know to ensure you're tuned in!!

How to watch 'Bel-Air' in the US:

To watch Bel-Air, you have to have a Peacock subscription, which you can sign up for below. Prices for subscriptions start at $5 per month (or $50 per year) for the ad-supported Premium plan and $10 per month (or $100 per year) for the commercial-free Premium Plus option. 

The NBC Universal streamer also has plenty of other movies, TV shows, sports and news offerings to delve into, including some Peacock original series such as Saved by the Bell, Girls5eva, Paris in Love and others. 

If you're a Spectrum customer, you can potentially get one free year of Peacock with an eligible TV plan or for 90 days with select Internet plans, so it's worth looking into!

How to watch 'Bel-Air' around the world:

If you're currently based outside the US, unable to use your usual TV subscription, and need access Peacock to watch Bel-Air, there's a great way to watch from wherever you are in the world: by using a VPN (opens in new tab).

A VPN  is a handy piece of software that allows you to browse anonymously, and to change your IP address so your mobile, computer, or laptop thinks it's in another location. Meaning, you can watch your favorite show, film or event—even if you’re away from home.

What is 'Bel-Air' about?

The Peacock original series is based on the 2019 viral mock trailer (opens in new tab) by Morgan Cooper, creating a modern-day version of West Philly's finest, Will Smith, as he starts his new life in Beverly Hills, California. 

Like the original 1990s sitcom, the story follows a teenage Will (played by Jabari Banks), who was sent to live with his Uncle Phil and Auntie Viv in Beverly Hills after... a couple of guys, who were up to no good, started making trouble in his neighborhood. You know rest.
