Watched all the original episodes. I've seen them advertised lately on Nick at Nite or TV Land can't recall which.

 

[SamMarlowPI]

yah they ahve been doin that...i have the first 4 seasons on dvd and wating for 5 and 6 in november...it is ridiculously hilarious...

 

[Doh!]

It got far too "cutsey" by the end, but the early seasons were gold.

Cliff explaining to Theo the value of a dollar remains a classic scene in all of TV history... ("See, the government goes for the regular people first.")

 

[PrettySquareGal]

That show is brilliant and I watch the reruns (plus I watched it the first time around). I do have one complaint- the 80's sweaters. Hard on my eyes.

Yes those Coogi sweaters were intense but strangely cool...

Agreed on all counts.

"The Shirt" was a classic, too.

The one that stuck in my mind was the episode where one of the kids had failed a school essay on the Civil Rights march on Washington - Bill Cosby's monologue on the presse guide that the kid had used as sole research was hysterical. "What did they say about the Boston Tea Party?.... Lot's of famous celebrities were there."

Not a show I would ever have sought out, but if it happened to be on and there was nothing else I really wanted to see, a pleasant enough diversion.

I loved the first Bill Cosby show from the 70s. I really need to pick that up on DVD.

 

[~*Red*~]

I grew up watching The Cosby Show and still watch the reruns today. The later seasons are not nearly as good, but they truly are classic.

 

[Doh!]

That's the 2nd episode that comes to mind!

 

[LolitaHaze]

I really like that show!

 

[Doh!]

Is that the episode where Theo got drunk, became a Mormon and then immediately took 3 wives?

 

[Paisley]

I liked the episode where they lip synched "The Night Time is the Right Time." Great show! One of the few sit coms where the father wasn't a buffoon.

 

[Ecuador Jim]

Been a huge fan of Bill Cosby since the "I Spy" days and his stand-up comedy days!
