Keisha Knight-Pulliam is so adorable in this episode...she stole the show! Hard to believe she grew up to be that sexy thang I saw in Beauty Shop...definitely hard to see her as Rudy anymore LOL
Truly great! I was overseas and never saw this show...sure hope I can find someplace that has these entire shows. Wow. TV has nothing this good on anymore. Just trash like DWTS.
awwwwwwwwww i wanna cry.. I remember being a little girl and watching this show with my grandma every night. It brings back so many memories.. I used to sing along with Rudy in this episode. Feeling so nostalgic!
Hollywood should learn from this; that this show revenued ''Millions'' of veiwers. The Latino show that was on ABC years ago did well. Hollywood should stop producing movies that make ' white' people look racist because of their past, or what we see in the media. I'm Black, not African-American, & It bothers me to see racism in the media, as well as in movies! Someone should inform Hollywood to stop the racist, gender hating things they do. This was a great show,& many races can come together
TV Sitcoms at it's best entertainment. This is the first Episode I liked the character "Theo, did not like him before this. Thank You Mr. Bill Cosby FOREVER!
I always thought the coolest part was when Theo comes down the stairs, no idea why. Also, I think Bill Cosby did the most believable lip-synch; not necessarily because he was the best, but because he sounds enough like Ray Charles that it could easily have been him singing instead of Ray.
@noelimit23 I think BET is gonna try to bring this type of show back w/ the new one w/ Malcolm Jamal Warner (Theo) and Tracie Ellis Ross (Joan from Girlfriends). It airs next month
What made the Cosby Show so great was that it transcended races, generations, lifestyles, and cultures. The show was never "in your face" about presenting a "black" family, but rather an American family. Of course it was funny, but it was also educational, entertaining, positive, and easy to relate to them. After all these years, people STILL talk about this episode, and this scene in particular. The Cosby Show never goes out of style, and that's what makes it a classic, and priceless.
First question....what the hell? It's one thing if you don't liek the character, but what you said about how they should adopt...then give her away....THEN you go back to reality and say that they should have removed her form the show....ick. But, then again, according to billions, Keisha Knight Pulliam is a fantastic actress, and is still acting.
@Lariel172 It's true.The creators made the biggest mistake by adding the last child on the show. The other children were very well discipline throughout the show with no problem. But that last child needed to go to an childcare adoptive foster care SERIOUSLY. She was not cute with her words but annoying. She cant shut up Someone shouldve BEAT THE LIVING CRAP out that child with a broom & a switch. Although Claire might have not approve of giving up the child, the creators shouldve sent her away.
@1990babyface You must not have watched the show much. All of the children had their issues as many children do. That is why they are not given responsibilities. Beating the crap out of a child does nothing on its own.
Theo - bad in school, got earring
Vanessa - went to Baltimore to see the Wretched
Denise - often was not totally truthful
Sandra - was pretty good, but that was because she was already in college, and of ten the first child is the best child.
@kenneth804 I grew up watching the show. You must havent? the other 4 children had more sense. That last annyoning dumbass child shouldve got adopted & went to foster care. See adults back then, when the show originally aired, parents & viewers thought the little demon was cute with her words. Such as saying "I'M NOT FINISHED YET". In real life that little bitch wouldve been in the ER room on life support saying disrespectful shit to GROWN adults. But that was just entertaining for viewers only.
@1990babyface You must have had a lapse in memory. It seems you have an innate dislike for Rudy for some reason that isn't based on the facts. By the same standard, Olivia would be just as disrespectful. But the fact is by most human standards Rudy wasn't as disrespectful as you are letting on.
Threatning to put someone in the ER is simply child abuse. I am not against corporal punishment, but you take it way overboard for the supposed disrespect.
@kenneth804 How in the hell do you welcome someone in your family like Olivia? But back to Rudy, It IS based on facts, she was disrespectful & a little demon from hell. Viewers & Parents thought she was just a sweet, innocent person who doesnt know what she's doing & young. Yelling, Pouting, Easedroping, taddletailing & doing shit that youre not supposed to do behind parents back is downright disrespectful
@1990babyface I never said is was ok. My point is that you seem to be singling Rudy out for scorn. "Yelling, Pouting, Easedroping, taddletailing & doing shit that youre not supposed to do behind parents back" are all wrong actions, but that is why the Bible speaks about training up a child. Parenting isn't about getting angry and beating up your child every time they do something that is perceived by you to be disrespectful. Its about being an example and correcting them in a loving manner.
@1990babyface Correcting them in a loving manner includes corporal punishment, but not always. If you look at the entire season again, you will see the Huxtables have a wonderful family that is, for the most part, well behaved. Both Claire and Heathcliff were ready, willing and fully capable of delivering adequate punishment.
And you welcome someone like Olivia because she is your step-grandchild and is family.
@kenneth804 I watched every single episode. I know Cliff & Claire hung in there together by a thread. Black Couples dont do that in real life anymore. You must be some sort of Doctor & white? Black People would beat thier children with broomsticks & ironing cords back in the day & leave their children outside all night. There's a word for that & It's called tough love. I dont know where you get off saying it's child abuse. Olivia shouldve been an outsider, instead of being "In the family".
@1990babyface If I can't have dialogue with my parents (of who I have two great parents) then it makes it hard for me to share with them problems I may be having if I am scared of getting a beatdown if I challenge them in anyway or say anything outside of your unnecessarily narrow standard of what a child can say.
Parenting is about training, which implies some back and forth and flexibility. Not a beatdown.

I enjoyed watching The Coby Show when it was on NBC and I enjoy it now in re-runs. This episode was without a doubt, one of the best!!!!! Ray Charles would have been impressed!!!!!
I remember this from my teens. We didn't have a DVR then so one couldn't rewind and repeat it like one can now. That, I think, is why it made such a lasting impact. It left us wanting more, and there was nothing we could do to GET more. LOL! Kudos also to the Wardrobe people for striking a PERFECT balance between 80's style and 50's chic. Especially Lisa Bonet and Phylicia Rashad. Fashion is seasonal, but Style is TIMELESS! Bill Cosby's faces were priceless, And Rudy... Steals the Show! Ha Ha
Going through a tough time like my divorce and little things like watching this vid really lifts up your spirits and gives you hope. Thank you for sharing and God bless.
I'm half black. My dad is a VP at General Motors. I live 20 minutes from Detroit. Just saying that so you can see where I'm coming from. I think that saying a show is "black" is ridiculous. What are the qualifications of a show being black? The skin color of the actors, actresses, or audience that views it? The Cosby Show broke barriers by featuring an upper-middle class black family, but it is not a "black" show. Races need to stop sticking their labels onto things, it only creates tension.
If you've ever listened to Cosby's stand up then you would know what you are talking about when you put this show in a category. Regardless of what people may think about per the stereotype of "black shows" "black people" this is a family show, that showcased a black family. He wanted to show America, that as black people we can and we did live outside of society's norm and stereotypes of black people, and black families. It wasn't a fictional side but a side no one wanted to believe existed
I guess it can't be a "Black show" because no one is stupidly funny, or on drugs, or pregnant for the 7th time, or killing their neighbor, or participating in a drive-by. Yes it's a family show, and a people show, and an American classic...but it's also a Black show.
@kyraboo93 No, it's not rude...I'm responding to those who claim that The Cosby Show isn't a black show, bc I get why they think that. Doesn't follow the same formula as so many "black shows" that came before and after it. They don't harp on race on TCS. Life just plays out nicely and we got to witness it. As Mr. Cosby himself said, "It isn't a matter of black is beautiful as much as it is white is not all that's beautiful."
@kyraboo93 He wanted to portray for America an African-American fam that is successful, not despite anything, just because. He wanted to show blacks and whites that there are black families who are happy and loving and funny and aren't focused on race, but on what they can accomplish with what's there - and not be stagnant because we can't get over what we wish was there. He speaks often about blacks bettering themselves, don't think that's ignorant.
Speaking of successes in the black community like the Cosby Show, it's a sad week in the black community. This week is an ending to a legendary, illustrious entertainment: The Oprah Winfrey Show is ending this week. :*(
wow what happen to the men & woman like this i take pride in family like this DR, LAWYERS, COLLEGE STUDENT, not this bull shit 90% people my age do today
I miss the Cosby show, nothing lasts forever and that sucks. The world really needs this, broken families needs this, and the children, they really need this. You can't find many house holds like this anymore and that's sad. I really love this episode=)
Not only was this a Classic episode and true "must see TV", this was also my very first introduction to Ray Charles (I think I was around 12). :-) I loved how the Cosby show educated you without you realizing it. LOL.
@gingerluvers well, my dad was a cement finisher/ construction worker...my mom was a nurses' aide...i'm only the second person in my family to go to college...i earned a b.a. in english--creative writing....i would consider my family working class or lower middle class...i think i did ok...
It was sad that some black ppl didnt' like the Cosby because they say they are not a real black family. HOW DUMB. A normal black man cant be a father, husband and a doctor. A normal black woman cant be a mother, wife, and a lawyer and raise 5 kids. My bad we suppose to be ghetto and have baby mama/daddy drama. Look how that turn out to be. NOT GOOD. PPL need to wake the fuck up. I like the Cosby fam then the Good Times family. Because I didnt wanna be in no damn ghetto. I wanted to get out.
@mistanderson You do know that they wanted to move in Good Times. Part of the whole point was their struggle to do well in school and move on up in life. The family was actually the least "ghetto" in the ghetto.
Bill Cosby has the illest facial expressions ever !!! He came with it on this classic espisode.

@kyraboo93 No, it's not rude...I'm responding to those who claim that The Cosby Show isn't a black show, bc I get why they think that. Doesn't follow the same formula as so many "black shows" that came before and after it. They don't harp on race on TCS. Life just plays out nicely and we got to witness it. As Mr. Cosby himself said, "It isn't a matter of black is beautiful as much as it is white is not all that's beautiful."

@kyraboo93 He wanted to portray for America an African-American fam that is successful, not despite anything, just because. He wanted to show blacks and whites that there are black families who are happy and loving and funny and aren't focused on race, but on what they can accomplish with what's there - and not be stagnant because we can't get over what we wish was there. He speaks often about blacks bettering themselves, don't think that's ignorant.

Speaking of successes in the black community like the Cosby Show, it's a sad week in the black community. This week is an ending to a legendary, illustrious entertainment: The Oprah Winfrey Show is ending this week. :*(

I miss the Cosby show, nothing lasts forever and that sucks. The world really needs this, broken families needs this, and the children, they really need this. You can't find many house holds like this anymore and that's sad. I really love this episode=)

Not only was this a Classic episode and true "must see TV", this was also my very first introduction to Ray Charles (I think I was around 12). :-) I loved how the Cosby show educated you without you realizing it. LOL.

It was sad that some black ppl didnt' like the Cosby because they say they are not a real black family. HOW DUMB. A normal black man cant be a father, husband and a doctor. A normal black woman cant be a mother, wife, and a lawyer and raise 5 kids. My bad we suppose to be ghetto and have baby mama/daddy drama. Look how that turn out to be. NOT GOOD. PPL need to wake the fuck up. I like the Cosby fam then the Good Times family. Because I didnt wanna be in no damn ghetto. I wanted to get out.
mistanderson 10 months ago 2
@mistanderson You do know that they wanted to move in Good Times. Part of the whole point was their struggle to do well in school and move on up in life. The family was actually the least "ghetto" in the ghetto.
