While shedding light on the ‘90s era television shows, Brunson called the famous classic sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air is a master class in storytelling.

Articulating her thoughts, she said, “Nothing was being watched without absorption. There wasn't a single show that I think I watched just for purely entertainment without eventually studying the art of it.”

“I remember Fresh Prince was a natural watch in my home,” the Abbott Elementary star shared.

Notably, Brunson is an ardent of the series but there is one particular episode of Fresh Prince of Bel-Air she watched on repeat.

“As I got older, I realized I would watch the pilot over and over and over again. And even at that time, I still didn't understand what it was I was trying to take away from it,” she revealed.

After mulling it over for years, the Zootopia 2 alum understood the impact of the episode on her.

“But as I got older, it occurred to me that this is a perfectly written pilot. I think that's what I was watching this over and over and over again for. It's perfectly written. It's perfectly performed. Perfectly cast,” Quinta Brunson remarked.
