HAMPTON in the house! :D

Father's Day Mini Marathon
 

Tonight's NICK @ NITE will feature a mini marathon of Cliff Huxtable and the gang.

Tonight @ 9 on Nick @ Nite -- The Gordon Gartrelle Episode for those who love that episode to death. :D

It took me a while to notice this, but reading the credits, you will see that Mr. Gartrelle was one of the producers (?) of the show.
:D :cool:

This episode is one of my favorites. What Denise did to that shirt was nothing less than a crime - LOL!!!!

Yeah I peeped that back in the day and was like hmmmmmmmmmmmmm indeed. You know he is famous for life just offa that shirt.:o :p

Ain't that the truth???:o :p

My least favorite episodes were:

1. when the men dreamed they were pregnant

2. when Cliff ate the sausage sandwich and dreamed the Muppets were there and all those other crazy things happened

3. when Rudy had the dream that Olivia had taken over

Funny you should mention that because when it first aired I thought maybe he was a real designer until I saw the credits. I bet there are still people looking for Gordon Gartrell shirts - LOL.

Favorite Character Overall - Claire - she served as a great example for African American Women
Favorite Cosby Kid - Rudy
Least Favorite - Vanessa
Favorite Episode - When Vanessa went to that concert in Baltimore without permission...Claire referred to Vanessa's story as "an abyss of lies." That was too hilarious.
Least Favorite Epsiode - The Final Epsiode....I just didn't want to see it go off the air:(

Re: ALICIA KEYS EPISODE
 

Today on MTV News they talked about her in this episode. She said that she was the little girl that won. The won with the afro. I knew I had heard that somewhere before, and lo and behold it was here on GC.

ETA: Now that we know it's her. The point CT4 made about her age really makes me wonder...:confused: How old is she?

EATA: According to this website she was 4 when she appeared on the Cosby show, so nevermind if Keisha was 6 it pretty much adds up. :rolleyes:

MY FAVORITE EPISODES (in no particular order):

1. When Rudy wanted to wear her spring dress to the party but Claire wouldn't let her....I love the Ray Charles song

2. Grandparents 49th annivesary (BAYYBBAAYYY, NITE AND DAY...)

3. Grandparents 50th anniversay (BABY, BABY, BABY...BABY, BABY, BABY)

4. When Vanessa and her friends got drunk

5. The Gordon Gartrelle Shirt incidence

6. Rudy's Slumber Party

7. When Martin's mother came and didn't like Denise

8. When Claire was on a diet

While I am not a fan of the Cosby Show...
 

....I happened to be digging through some old, and I mean OLD stuff in my closet, and I found something rather noteworthy to this thread.

It is an issue of the Scholastic Scope magazine, the ones we would get while in school that would have "scripts" to TV shows and ABC After School Specials that students would read aloud in class and everyone would be trying to get the lead roles.

Well, I have the October 2, 1987 issue which highlights the Cosby Show episode "Vanessa's Bad Grade" (the Vanessa/Denise sweater fight), and have had this issue since 9th grade. I'm surprised I never threw it away.

BTW, the magazine issue had a different ending than the TV episode did, which IMHO was kinda corny.

Hmm, lemme reread this now...

Re: Cosby Show Marathon
 

Denise was my fav. Cosby kid

Favorite non-Cosby kid was Peter

I have too many favorites to name!

My least favorite episodes were the ones when everyone was living in the house--the last season

Re: While I am not a fan of the Cosby Show...
 

OMG! I used to have that issue too, but I lost it! The only issues that I still have is the one with the script from that ABC Afterschool Special that was about the boy who had Down's Syndrome and his parents fought to keep him out of Sp. Ed. classes so that he could get his HS diploma and the other one was the script from the CBS Afterschool special about the girl that got a STD from her boyfriend. I think they still print Scope but without the TV scripts now.

What was the ending to that episode that Scope had? PM me.

*sigh*

Enlightment time
 

A few weeks ago, there was an old ep of Cosby Show on with Rudy, Stanley, Kenny, and Deidre. I got to thinking, most of the cast and guest stars went on to do more after The Cosby Show, but where is/was Deidre?

So I went to IMDB.com and I learned several things:

1. She is born in 1973 which makes her 33 this year and ~19 when she was on The Cosby Show playing a 12-14 year old.
2. She's done more acting, i.e. Sister, Sister and In The House
3. Other appearances has been in adult movies. :(

Re: Cosby Show Marathon
 

Favorite Kid: Me and Vanessa lived paralell lives with that darn clarinet.
Fave Non-Cosby Kid(s): Pam (woo-hoo GHS c/o '87) and Lance (my oh my)
Fave Eppy's
1. Vanessa going to see the wretched & her mother's reaction (swear they talked to my mom for that one)
2. When the guys had the contest to see who was the King of Romance
3.The Anniversary Shows
4. When Debbie Allen was Claire's exercise instructor (that was funny)
5. JUSTINE JUSTINE!!!
Least Fave: when they had nothing to do with the Huxtable family (the kid in the park that didn't talk)

I was just watching and Clair was fussing at Cliff and said, "HeathClifford." I recall that his name has been discussed on GC and it switched from Heathcliff to Clifford or vice versa.

So, which is it?? LOL!

It, and some other things, changed from Clifford to Heathcliff after the first season. If you recall, they did not have 5 children until the second season when Sandra appeared. I remember Cliff asking Claire why did they have 4 children and she said because they didn't want 5! Their house also changed the layout and design.

LOL! Where did "Heathclifford" come from???

I looked "Deidre" up too and it appears that is the same girl that played "Raynelle" on In The House (LL's show).

That was her :confused:

Yup that was her. From Deirdre to Raynelle to porn star:(

Didn't want it to get lost in the prom thread, lol.

LovelyIvy, this is for you.
