I didn't care for the show back in the 80s and 25 years later i still don't like it, I have nothing agianst Cosby as i like Fat Albert as a kid but the Cosby show to me was a highly overrated show and now TV LAND plays the show all night long at times and i wish the tapes would wear out so they can never be seen agian. The Cosby show and Scrubs are tied as the worst shows every made
Haven't seen the Cosby show forever but I do remember liking it.
Cosby's standup is hilarious...I especially like "Bill Cosby, Himself"
I know the actress who played Rudy was on some show that my kids watch ( I think it is called "You're so Raven" or something like that and they also said she was part of a pretty popular band).

I remember liking it as a kid,but I honestly can't watch it now
Given the choice i'll watch FAT ALBERT over the Cosby show any day of the week, But then i haven't seen Fat Albert since i was a kid so that show may also send me screaming out of the room also

Your confusing Rudy (Keisha Knight-Pulliam) with Olivia (Raven Symone). Olivia was brought in towards the end (shark jumping: child added) when Rudy and the others weren't cute anymore.
Raven-Symone is the star of "That's So Raven" and was a former Cheetah Girl...

The show definitely got unfunny after a few seasons. And yes, I couldn't stand Raven on the show. I hate "precious" child actors. You know the ones who deliver lines like they're adults.
i used to like that show back in the day..but now, i really cant stand it...its hard to explain, without going into a lot of detail or being smacked in the face...
As a kid, I studied Comedians closely and Bill Cosby was no exception. I thought his stand-up stuff was great.
A lot of those early episodes (along with Fat Albert) were based on his stand-up routines and as such, they were fun. One could recognize the bits that the scenes were playing out. However, both of those shows outpaced the stand-up and wore thin. In total, not a fan of The Cosby Show, but there were bits of genius in the early stuff that I can't dismiss.
I think he is great. Loved watching him in I Spy, his Cosby show from the early 70's, et al. My wife and I just saw him in concert last November and it was one of the best things I have ever gone to. I can see where some folks wouldn't have a thing for his style, but I think most of what he does hits a chord with me.
