During high school and college, the "Cosby Show" was a big favorite at my house, and it really influenced my parents and family.
My family is bi-racial. It occurred to me that, in order for Cosby to be a #1 hit, many Caucasian households had to be watching it, too-- not just black audiences. And in fact, Cosby was a controversy among some Af-Ams who felt that the show wasn't "black enough"! (Which I consider an insulting and ridiculous comment.)
I'm just curious to know if/how "Cosby" may have influenced other families. Any Cosby show flashbacks?-- good or bad.
