You know say what you want about Bill Cosby and what he's done and how disgusting it is if in fact he did those things he is accused of, but we should never attempt to take what he created with this show from him. I think it will be unfair especially to the amazing Phylicia Rashad and other 4 amazing women who made the Cosby show one of the amazing lessons and a template parents could use to raise family. I find myself modeling my family after the Huxtables each day and I was not even in the country when this show was on the air. This show made it possible for America to see black families in a light that was unimaginable. Thank you to all the creators and the actors of this show for that. I am grateful.

People can no longer speak from their hearts for fear of insulting someone. Even if someone is less correct on a matter don't they have the right to feel how they feel and respectfully express those feelings? 😉
