– Out of topics with the exact same name "A Different World" (excluding others titled "Different World" without "A"), The TV show is more viewed than a song, different from Different World (song). And the show weighs more on long-term significance mainly due to format changes during the show, Must See TV recognition, and connection to The Cosby Show. Meanwhile, a song is some country song.

Horrible.
editI'm sorry but my opinion is that this article reads horribly. The Notable episodes read like an opinion instead of fact. I also don't understand the clunky table for Main Characters. Why not just use regular text and list what season they were guest or recurring? Would anyone like to help me trim this nonsense? 76.123.200.158 (talk) 03:01, 19 July 2017 (UTC)
- Removed the "notable" episodes text. Heartfox (talk) 21:33, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
