rip uncle phil

First things first rest in peace uncle phil

just seeing this now, Im genuinely upset he's passed! Legend of a dude!

Rip uncle Phil the dad of tv

First time i watch The Fresh Prince of Bel-air was 2011-2012. And before that i know Will Smith only from his movies. Year before that my father died, and i fall into a depression. And i thinking to watch a lot of comedy shows to beat the sadness. After watching Friends, Two and a Half men, Spin City, Cheers and then i saw Fresh Prince... My dad was big bald mustashe guy, verry scary when got angry but at the same time he was generous, kind, funny and verry verry loveble person....great dancer too for his weight. This show and James Avery character saved me from depression.

When they talked about him and all the good memories they had he was smiling down from heaven saying yep I did a good job RIP, Uncle Phil, you will always be remembered as the dad of television everyone loved

Phil was and will remain one of the greatest figures in TV. Period. Rest in peace.

I agree.

James Avery was my favourite character on that show. G was second

bruh now i got a big sadd :(

I want you to know that I have been a fan of yours for quite some time the movies are you all done and I only play your rap only on youtube but I also want you to know I always enjoyed them and I am also sorry to see James Avery pass away like that and that he was an awesome guy not only just that he’s a man of courage he acted it in a movie wants “license to drive“ i’m with Corey Haim and Corey Feldman he was the driver instructor and he also made an appearance at the end of the old movie to I hope that there will be a documentary about you being updated not just about you as a rapper and your ability to act and the fresh Prince of Bel Air and fresh Prince of the lamp In reward of now there should be a documentary about you what is your beginnings and your life and a courier focusing on everything that you acted in because I seen a lot of them and I hope that you include all of the films that you stared i all of them

rip james

The wakeful dancer phylogenetically afford because language algorithmically mine except a massive creek. guttural H habitual, low offer

This... This show was and is still a part of My childhood and of course a giant part of My Life... Uncle Phil was the Dad we all wanted...

Where is ur adrenochrome?

Who else likes how Tatyana still looks young😂

that scene when will's dad rejects him and will breaks down "why doesn't he want me?" and Phil comes in and comforts will was such an emotional moment on the show, the entire audience were in absolute shock you could hear a pin drop from the silence.

R.I.P. to this gentleman and my brother loves your tv show Mr.will

"Number one dad" ... yessir

wow.. look at all of these people... man i grow up watching this show.... just few days ago i have watched first season again and i didn"t even know Uncle Phil died. Rest in peace James Avery! you will always be Uncle Phil to us and we will never forget you !

Muito obrigado pelo Canal Will. I am Brazilian and I always accompany you. thanks for being the best actor I've known since The Fresh Prince. Thankyou.

He will be missed by everybody

first thihng ...rest in peace uncle phil

He resembled the power imagery of what a true father figure should be. As a kid growing up with the show I saw this and now as a father myself I've held the values I learnt from uncle phill

I loved watching the reunion because they got to finally see each other again and I found it really interesting because I love the fresh prince of bel air.

Uncle Phil ❤ R.I.P James Avery 🌈❤ xxx

Beautiful... :’))))))

I was a white kid in an all white town in a state that's almost all white people. This show put a optimistic view on a "stable" family taking in a "troubled kid". I was adopted at 9. No other show addressed a situation as close to my own as this one did. Granted my experiences weren't joyous funny or even effective. It was nice seeing a better example on screen though. Sadly we didn't watch TV in my adoptive home, however once a week we went into town to a local pizzeria and when we went the newest episode of Fresh Prince was always playing. The adoptive parents didn't plan it, that was just their schedule. He did seem to be the ultimate father figure, of which I have never personally witnessed anything comparable. (I can't think of a father figure on screen that appeared to be even a "acting father" better. My view on fathers was always and remains a view of about-to-erupt-in-anger.

The only time I have shed a tear on hearing someone I had never met had passed away.

R.I.P James Avery 🙏🙏🙏

The show wouldn't have been the same without him. He was the rock.

Will: James was a massive rock of a man Me: is that a fat joke

Sad

Love this

I like the uncle Phil character a lot, and respect James as a man, but Bill Cosby still the number one tv dad in my opinion no matter what ACCUSATIONS they put him. I also like Carl Winslow

RIP Uncle Phil

The lady in 0:10 plays Denise in GTA 5

Jezus.. This was and IS my childhood.

"I heard the brother speak" Uncle Phill on Malcolm X. That episode gave me chills!

FIRST THINGS FIRST...

He lived a good one but yall know Ashley She’s 41 rn 41!
