The thing I watched in a 16:4 wooden frame TV as part of a show aired in 16:4 on my 16:9 TV was actually funny. For this moment alone, Phil dancing and Geoffrey dressed like Bootsy Collins this episode ain't totally shabby. I like most of the episodes focused on Phil anyway. Like in last episode, you feel how important the relation between Phil and Will is for this show. Question: Was Soul Train a real show?

PS: one of the best Carlton dances on the show. Geoffrey is extra naughty in this episode. Hillary's miniscule B-plot is funny. It leads to nowhere. I adore her anyway. She deserves her own episode.

Question: Was Soul Train a real show?

Yes, and Don Cornelius was its real host up until shortly before this episode aired. https://trakt.tv/shows/soul-train

(I'm over here laughing at the idea of cropping Fresh Prince to 16:4, btw. You'd lose most of the picture!)

@dgw Alright. That's funny. Probably I meant 4:3. :-) Anyway these formats and watching TV inside another show confused me a lot. As you can tell.
