Leave it to Steve Harvey to get the cast of A Different World together and just make our Friday afternoon!
The cast assembled on the set of Harvery’s daily talk show to go down memory lane and give us a serious case of déjà vu.
Jasmine Guy, Kadeem Hardison, Cree Summer, Darryl Bell and Charnale Brown gathered together to talk about the dynamic show which has been off the air for almost 25 years (can you believe it?!)

Their iconic characters as students of the fictional Hillman College touched on various issues that were often taboo but needed to be discussed—including everything from the HIV/AIDs epidemic in the Black community to the Rodney King beating. Even though Hillman was a fictional school, its influence led to a boom in enrollment at HBCUs during the show’s run.
While sitting with Harvey, the cast recalls their most memorable moments and spills some never before known secrets!
The cast of A Different World sits down on The Steve Harvey Show this Friday, check your local listings.
