    James Avery has died at the age of 65. The actor -- best known for playing Uncle Philip Banks on the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air -- died at an L.A. hospital on Tuesday, Dec. 31.

    2014 still good to go! so far...

    There was a scene with Uncle Phil and Will Smith in the episode where Will's dad showed up and then bailed on him. Will was crying about about his dad not wanting him. Was a pretty powerful scene.

    Fresh Prince was right up there with The Jeffersons. Two different eras but both had huge followings.
