Superstation TBS: Stop Bursting My Cosby Bubble

October 25th, 2005 • Related • Filed Under

There is something so special about being insulated in a mid-day Cosby Show bubble. You can forget about the rest of the world, your work, and how many spam messages you have in your inbox. You can cushion yourself in the hi-jinks of the Huxtable family, where everything made sense, was good, warm, and funny. This is even true of the horrid late-series episodes, where Theo works at the youth center, cousin Pam is around, Rudy gets her period (I shivered a little, even typing that) and Winnie and Nelson are all grown up and retarded.

You can understand, then, how jarring it is when TBS rips you out of this bubble and deposits you squarely in the world of “The Parkers,” without warning. No matter how vigilant you are, it is next to imossible to change the channel fast enough to avoid being assualted by this decidedly non-Cosby sadsack excuse for mid-day programming. TBS, stop it.

Here is a picture of Bill Cosby for you to print out and color.
