Cosby Show - Page 6

lovelyivy84 · #1 05-21-2002, 01:05 AM

My thoughts:

1. Carl Payne (Also known as Cockroach) was kicked off the show because he refused to cut his hair- saw it on The Cosby Show E! True Hollywood story

2. Seeing Peter again had me ROOOOOLLLLIIIIN!

3. WHEN WHEN WHEN are they going to sell The Cosby Show episodes on tv? I am TELLING YOU that that is a goldmine! I know sooo many black folks who just wish that their kids could be exposed to entertainment like that and would shell out the money for the first couple of seasons (all the way up to Olivia- I'm sorry but she is not a real Cosby kid, and lil Missy has not aged well! I am not anywhere near old enough to be her Mama, but I wanted to grab her and wipe some of that makeup off! Just plucking her eyebrows properly would do more than all the concealer in the world!

4. Baaabyyyyy! Babbbyyyyy! That is my FAVORITE TELEVISION SCENE perhaps ever!

5. I watch the re-runs on that show on Nick at Nite and I am ALWAYS struck by the sheer vast amounts of pink and green on that show, lol. Every other episode Claire and the daughters are wearing tons of it!

6. The E True Hollywood Story had all the real dirt on the show- do try to catch it!

7. Puffy. Why?

Why? Why? Why?

Overall, when I wasn't watching the sister win on Survivor (Go head V! Can't spell her name and won't even try!) that show was so heartwarming. I would so shell out the money for DVD's!

At the time it appeared as a bad coverup. That whole season was funny to me because it was public knowledge that she was pregnant. So I spent more time laughing at all the ways they attempted to hide it--grocery bags, flowers, a huge teddy bear, and yes the "she appears to be sinking into the mattress" cut out in the bed.

I too laughed through that entire season at the different ways they tried to hide the pregnancy. It really was a bad cover up.

well then HOW COME Bill did not make Theo cut that God awful tail he used to wear in the 90s.

IMO, none of Theo's other friendships had that SPARK that THEO and COCKROACH shared. Plus CockRoach was serious eye candy back in the day.

I could not stand looking at that ugly tail, hanging from the back of Theo's head. I've always hated tails. I REALLY hate it when I see people still sporting tails

Can you believe people still have those things

Oh my goodness!!! I was sooo in love with Cockroach when I was younger. I had a huge poster of him, on my wall. My goal in life (back then), was to hunt him down, and marry him.

As a Spelman Grad....Thank you

That's the quality that I love to see from the HBCU experience. As a fellow HBCUer (Hampton University), I hope that such social polishing will continue in years to come.

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.

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

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
