I watched the Cosby Kids cartoons, but never the hit show The Bill Cosby Show, in the 70’s or 80’s. Back then, I was early to work, get home late FOR 45+ YEARS. I watched kids movies, kids shows if at all. Or good movies. Laugh tracks always turned me off.
One of my favorite videos, before Cosby's downfall:
Bill Cosby and Friends with David Murray - Ursalina Live Tv Show
Of those guys, I've met David Murray, Don Pullen, and Al Foster.
