  • Looking for Cosby Episode

    I am looking for a legal copy of an episode of Cosby entitled "Natural Born Debtors." The episode first aired in October 1996. Or, if I can't just get a copy of the episode, I would be interested in buying a DVD of the series. Can anyone tell me where to obtain either? Thanks

  • This or OFITG?

    I was wondering how good it is compared to One foot in the grave, the show it remade. I haven't seen it but I am a huge fan of OFNTG and I want to know if it is worth it?

    Premeiring in 1984 as M*A*S*H* was just saying goodbye, added another staple of late night television. It was based on a typical New York Family of seven, with mom who is a lawyer, and Dad who is a Doctor. Every week we laughed as a brlliant cast did. hide « show »

    The Cosby show was as funny as it was enjoyable to watch. Bill Cosby is one of the funniest men around. Taking his stand up routines and putting them onto the screen for all to laugh at and enjoy. Cosby and co-star Malcolm-Jamal Warner, (Theo Huxtable), were a classic match up as father and son. The cast was funny and brilliant. The Cosby Show topped the ratings as number 1 for four straight years in a row. Premiering in 1984 and running through 8 years until 1992, and it is still one of the funniest shows ever to hit primetime television.

    Great show!! hide « show »

    I watched it from the beginning to the end! It's one of the best show i've ever watched!! Cosby - the head of the family is as always soooo funny. Not just his lines, but his expressions as well! And than his wife, and their relationship, children, grandchildren... Wonderful! I mean, being able to watch someone grows in front of your eyes and in such a nice show, it's a rare possibility! The show is very funny, and interesting, it can keep you in front of the TV all they if that could be possible.:) But, as always...everything has it's ending, so...i think it's going to pass a lot of years until we got something good and amusing as The Cosby show...

    Cosby has done so many wonderful shows and this is one of them!! hide « show »

    I was a little kid when Cosby came to CBS in 1996. I thought it was hilarous!!! I like funny loving families like these. There are very few like them. Cosby is such a good actor and producer. He's also very funny and he knows how to make a script funny and make people think. His writers always listened to him and in return I know Dr. Cosby respected them as well. The big part of the show's success was that relationship that you saw between him and Phylicia Richard. She was able to act off him and still be very funny. That is the true key to a good sitcom. A funny man and a funny woman that could play off the lead male. I hope I can do a show like this one day or Cosby Mysteries. I'll figure out. In the meantime, why don't we put this on DVD?

    A good show hide « show »

    This is a good show for the whole family. I watch this sometimes when there is nothing good on tv. This show is on both Nick at night and tv land. This is a greate show for the whole family. I hope they never cancelle it. I still like to watch it even though it is old. Alot of people say this show is old but I still like it. This show is funny and enjoyable to watch anytime it is on Telivision. A good show for all ages. When I watched this show around christmas time I saw some christmas episodes that were good too.
