Does anybody want to buy the first four seasons of Cosby Show on DVD from me? I just got them in a job lot yesterday, something tells me I'm stuck with them now Don't be so sure; I already had mine priced super-low ($5 per season) and everything I had sold today because people know they aren't going to be finding them on Netflix and Hulu in the near future. Were they the old Dvd releases or the more recent releases from Mill Creek? Not long after the Cosby stuff became common knowledge every local DG was flooded with copies of the first few seasons of The Cosby Show. They were the Mill Creek releases and selling brand new for a buck each.

Another reason to be super cautious if you run into somebody who is overly ready to point out the flaws in others. In between being a pervert, cosby always seemed to be ready with his accusatory finger. He was full of shit anyway. His supposedly wise and insightful "pound cake" speech was nonsense, because it presumed that every black kid who got shot by police was actually doing something wrong to justify it, which is often bullshit as cases like Tamir Rice and others clearly demonstrate. He also blamed school drop outs and black youth in jail to be exclusively caused by bad parenting, without any consideration to school funding being piss poor or a legal system biased against poor blacks, who can't afford good legal representation. It got even worse when he cited the Nation of Islam as an example of black people doing positive things to clean up neighbourhoods, which is ironic considering that the NOI murdered Malcolm X, and their leader Louis Farrakhan is a notorious anti-semite. I think the most absurd criticism he had towards inner city blacks was criticising the way they speak, which again is ironic coming from a incoherent twat who slurs most of his words and takes at least a minute to get out a single simple sentence.

I feel horrible for all of the women involved. Cosby was always seen as a positive person. I personally always admired him and enjoyed reading his books, listening to interviews. Saw him as a "good guy". I have no doubt that these women's claims fell on deaf ears and even worse, because of Cosby's reputation were called liars and shamed.
We saw him as a good guy, he wasn't. Many saw his accusers as liars and money-hungry women looking to exploit a celebrity, they weren't.
If there is a positive in this is that hopefully this will cause more victims to be heard and taken seriously.
In the end though we all lose. These women loss more than most will ever or can ever understand. The world saw a "good guy" fall and once again we see true evil does exist.
It shouldn't have to come to this to see justice served and for victims voices to be heard.

Bounce TV has pulled the re-runs of The Cosby Show effective immediately. What's weird is that they started airing the show after the allegations were already in the media.

Rot in jail Bill.
I was a fan as a kid as early as Fat Albert watching episodes while eating Cap’n Crunch on my Incredible Hulk tray before school.
Watched the Cosby Show every Thursday before too many people were on the cast and it got really bad and crushed on Denise.
Then these poor ladies came forward and just wow dude how could you be such scum?
Did the ladies not come forward during his height of The Cosby Show? Just curious why I only heard about it decades after he did these horrible crimes.

I just....this man called himself preaching to black people for years that we needed to be held accountable for our actions and do better all the while he's a damn rapist. It's sickening. I always found him intimidating on the Cosby Show when I was younger because he came across as a strict school teacher. Too bad he didn't practice what he preached

They'd have to relive it over and over while being constantly called whores, money grabbers and that it's their fault. Hell, even in this case, that was the defence's main tactic. Plus this was Cosby, you try accusing one of the most beloved celebrities at the height of his power and with millions of dollars and the power of the industry behind him. They'd have been and were crushed like hugs the minute they were a danger. There's a ton of reasons, it's just now that society is starting to change so guys like him, Weinstein, Spacey etc. Are starting to lose that untouchable status.

I'll enjoy seeing the reactions from his apologists online, who still claim his accusers are in it for the money and fame, despite of course none of them becoming wealthy or famous as a result of it. Those shitbergs make OJ Simpson defenders look mild by comparison. Those people are stupid. The court system doesn't convict people easily, it's a thorough process where you're given every chance to defend yourself. That said, I don't feel the slightest guilt for accepting the Cosby episodes my friend Jefferson Torrent gave me.

Glad it happened this week to remind people that Kanye's twitter has always been garbage (this from 2016) Relevant, but due to politics, I will keep it to "Dragon Energy".

Now let's see what happens to o'Reilly, trump, weinstein and others for me not to see it as a "they wanted HIM no matter what" situation.. and yes I'm implying what you think.

I can't be the only one that was hearing rumors about Cosby back in the mid to late 90s. When I first got online there was rumors about this stuff. And since then various comedians have come forward and talked about how it was a known secret in comedy circles. @
