I'm still not clear where your outrage and incredulity are coming from.

Is it REALLY incomprehensible that while Huxtables were ideals and Cosby's real life doesn't exactly match the ideal that he and his family are STILL way ahead of the Reno's, Roxanne's, BILLDO'S SHRILLERY'S, ABZUGS, DASHOLES, AND A LONG, LONG, LOOOOONG LIST OF OTHER more overtly HOLLYWEED NOTABLEs who's excuse for family life tends to be the cobbled together list for group sex they just had or are planning.

The differences may not be black and white but we're getting rather close to such stark comparaisons in reality and you are carping about the ideal Huxtables being fiction? God bless the fiction.

We could use a couple dozen other fictions like that. MORE would begin to live like it authentically. What a boon for family life and sanity that program was. And you are throwing rocks? What are you doing in a conservative forum if such integrity, ideals jangles your sensibilities so much????? I'm exceedingly puzzled.

I puzzle you? Your holding up a fictional character and the man who played him as an idol because of the character when the real man is the virtual opposite of the character puzzles me.

Shall we hold up others who played honorable and desireable fictional characters regardless of what they themselves are like?

People in Hollywood are far to often looked to for advice and information when infact they are nothing more than people paid to be something they are not.
