yeah by the time I knew about him and his comedy (probably early 2000s) a lot of his jokes were centered on respectability politics and "old man yells at clouds" stuff

but I definitely remember liking the cosby show when I was a kid

I went on YouTube and typed funny Bill Cosby moments and watched several videos with a straight face without cracking any sort of smile or even blowing air out of my nose.

Like most successful comedians, he's charismatic in a very distinct way. In Cosby's case, being a gentle, wholesome, fatherly type.

I once had some of his old records (and Andy Griffith) from the late 60's and early 70s.

They all got burned up in a garage fire.

Wish I still had them.

Was some funny shit without all the cursing and swearing like they do now.

Yes I get that you've convinced yourself of this.

But you weren't alive in the 80s when this type struck home.

I mean most of what I remember from watching this show when I was younger was "This old guy is lecturing kids" and not much else. There aren't really any funny antics and a lot of the "humor" derives from Bill Cosby playing the role of an old guy. Didn't find it enjoyable then, don't find it enjoyable now.

He's a funny guy. Just because he's done horrific things, doesn't mean he's done nothing good. People like to act like if someone is bad in one way, then they're bad in all ways or if someone is good in one way, then they're good in all ways. Life's not that simple. In fact, abusers often get away with what they do because they're well-liked in their community.

If you like boomer humor, cosby was extremely funny. If you didn't, he was the opposite of extremely funny.

There are about 3 Cosby eras. The nonthreatening I Spy era of the '60's. The bawdy Uptown Saturday Night era of the 70's, then the avuncular Fat Albert-Cosby Show era of the late 70's -'80's..

I always thought the Uptown Saturday Night and Let's Do it Again era was funniest.
