Anyways, BACK to Discussing the SHOW and Not Cosby's Personal Life...


Surprised no other topics are actually discussing Cosby's TALENT, or the show itself. I keep reading all this crap about him raping women. This is IMDB- and we are supposed to discuss Bill Cosby's SHOW (Cosby Show) and NOT his stupid private life.

Anyways, I am surprised The Cosby Show (1985-1992) didn't win more acting Emmys. Cosby I think withdrew his name for consideration because of his wins for I Spy (70s), but still he should have won a few. He was very funny, and a great tribute to the African-American community.

Phylicia Rashad should also have won some awards- she was a bitch though. She made Rudy change dresses because of the season? I hated her after that.

For being on IMDb for more than a couple years, you sure haven't learned to read the board.  There are a good amount of posts here about the show...

From what I see most of them are about Bill Cosby supposedly raping Women.

He instilled some of his beliefs into the show, which he got paid to do, so wouldn't that become a fair issue?

Drama is harder to do than comedy; Bill Cosby was wonderful to watch in "I Spy" and apart from a reference to his alma mater, he didn't put the educational and family values routine into his works until the 1970s, especially as he co-created those.

The guy was respectable with his laudable efforts, but drugging women for rape -- SMH...
