"The Cosby Show" centers on the lives of the Huxtables: obstetrician Cliff and his lawyer wife Claire, their daughters Sondra, Denise, Vanessa and Rudy, and son Theo. Based on the standup comedy of Bill Cosby, the show focused on his observations of family life. Although based on comedy, the series also addresses some more serious topics, such as learning disabilities and teen pregnancy.

In memory of Malcolm-Jamal Warner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more 12/14/2021 In a house filled with love there's always room for more, as proven by the zany goings on that take place in the ever packed Huxtable house. The patriarch and self-proclaimed leader of the bunch is Dr. Heathcliff Huxtable, played by the fallaciously defamed Dr. William H. Cosby. Cliff's drawn-out tall tales, obsession with hoagies, creativeness, and self-satisfying wit earned him the very fitting title of "America's Dad". Always by his side was the beautiful and gracious Clair Huxtable, played by the multi-talented Phylicia Rashad. Let the record show that Clair's toughness, gentleness, and keen ability to see through anyone's tomfoolery kept the family together even through the stickiest of situations. Together, the timeless examples of a parental unit have five exceptional children: Sondra, Denise, Theo, Vanessa, and Rudy. Sondra Huxtable, the eldest child of Cliff and Clair, is a practicing law student who is in love with a classmate who she never ceases to squabble with for the most petty reasons — so of course that relationship will stand the test of time! The second oldest is Denise, a flaky, eccentrically fashionable young adult with a good heart, a laidback attitude, and an aversion to competition. Lisa Bonet lends her acting talents to this memorable character and adds her name to the list of brilliantly casted actors on the show. The third eldest and only Huxtable son, Theo Huxtable was best known for his major turn-around from the series's beginning to it's final season. Once an inattentive, work-shy teen fixated on women, he later became a hardworking teacher beset on helping children with learning disabilities. Second youngest is Vanessa Huxtable, the doctor-lawyer duo's, precocious, occasionally rebellious, levelheaded and boy-crazy daughter, played by Tempestt Bledsoe. In my opinion, Vanessa had the best storylines. She was always expected to do good, did good, and ended up having some huge shocker that tested the family's trust, which made her very relatable to me. The youngest and most spoiled child was Rudy Huxtable, played by Keshia Knight Pulliam. Her character always played an interesting part in the show as Cosby was exceptional at exploring perspectives. We got to zero in on Rudy's trials being the youngest in the family, feeling unimportant, coming-of-age, gaining responsibility, and the perks that come with being the baby of the family. I can definitely relate to that. The Cosby Show is an unforgettable watch. The series is worth the watch for Dr. Cosby's brilliance and its source material — all personal beliefs aside. The sitcom's observations of fundamental and relevant themes brings all of the realistic and memorable occurrences full circle. 88%! (SEASON SEVEN) See more Read all reviews
