Homecoming is in full swing, and we're breaking down Episode 3 of Netflix's A Different World!

The guys finally show their hands about who they like, and we love to see it. Everything we hoped for in this continuation is happening, from Whitley and Jalessa's contentious relationship to real-life musical guests who turned the episode into a party.

Of course, we have to talk about the biggest conversation online: Jasmine Guy. We're sharing our 2 and 3 cents, and we want to hear yours.

Plus, we reminisce on what makes an HBCU homecoming so special to students, alums and even outsiders who got a taste of the magic.

Press play, then tell us your favorite moment from the episode.

Season 2 goes out with a bang! We're recapping the final two episodes, Diarra finally finds Duncan's treasure underground, but the reunion turns deadly when Booker is buried in the tunnel collapse trying to save the fortune. We break down whether Booker was a sociopath all along, the wild Yacht Club plan, the gang war at the wedding. Plus Diarra and A'ja's friendship, and the fake gold twist. It's a lot — so we give our overall verdict on this season.
