The Cosby Evidence is an American television sitcom co-created by and starring Bill Cosby, which aired Thursday nights for eight seasons on NBC betwixt September twenty, 1984, until April 30, 1992. The show focuses on an upper middle-grade African-American family unit living in Brooklyn, New York.

The Cosby Show spent 5 consecutive seasons as the number-one rated show on idiot box. The Cosby Show and All in the Family unit are the but sitcoms in the history of the Nielsen ratings to be the number-one testify for five seasons. It spent all 8 of its seasons in the top 20.[1]

Co-ordinate to TV Guide, the testify "was Goggle box's biggest hitting in the 1980s, and almost single-handedly revived the sitcom genre and NBC's ratings fortunes."[two] TV Guide also ranked it 28th on their listing of fifty Greatest Shows.[iii] In addition, Cliff Huxtable was named as the "Greatest Telly Dad".[4]

In May 1992, Amusement Weekly stated that The Cosby Show helped to make possible a larger variety of shows with a predominantly black cast, from In Living Color to The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.[5] The Cosby Bear witness was based on comedy routines in Cosby's stand up-upwards comedy act, which in turn were based on his family life. The show led to the spinoff A Different Globe, which ran for half dozen seasons from 1987 to 1993.

Premise [edit]

The show focuses on the Huxtable family, an African-American upper form family, living in a brownstone in Brooklyn Heights, New York, at 10 Stigwood Avenue.[6] The patriarch is Cliff Huxtable, an obstetrician and son of a prominent jazz trombonist. The dame is his wife, lawyer Clair Huxtable.[7]

They have four daughters and 1 son: Sondra, Denise, Theo, Vanessa, and Rudy. Despite its comedic tone, the show sometimes involves serious subjects, like Theo's experiences dealing with dyslexia,[8] inspired past Cosby's dyslexic son, Ennis.[9] The show as well deals with teenage pregnancy when Denise's friend Veronica (Lela Rochon) becomes meaning.[10]

Episodes [edit]

Airplane pilot [edit]

The Cosby Testify pilot episode uses the same title sequence equally the residuum of the first season, and is widely regarded as the first episode. However, it contains a number of differences from the remainder of the series.

In the airplane pilot, the Huxtables take only 4 children.[12] Following the pilot, the Huxtables have 5 children, with the addition of their eldest girl, Sondra (Sabrina Le Beauf), who is mentioned in episode four and appears start in episode 11. The character was created when Neb Cosby wanted the show to express the achievement of successfully raising a child who had graduated from college.[13]

Bill Cosby originally wanted Vanessa Williams to play the part of Sondra due to her college education and background in theater arts. However, Williams had recently been crowned the offset black Miss America and pageant officials would non let her to play the role while she was representing the Miss America pageant. Whitney Houston was also considered for the function of Sondra Huxtable, simply was unable to commit to the full-time television product schedule in the NBC contract, as she intended to go a full-time music recording artist.[14] [15]

Most of the story in the pilot presentation is taken from Bill Cosby's 1983 comedy film Beak Cosby: Himself. Cosby'due south character is chosen "Clifford" in the early episodes of the offset season, but his name was subsequently switched to "Heathcliff".

Additionally, Vanessa refers to Theo as "Teddy" twice in the dining room scene. The interior of the Huxtables' home features an entirely different living room from subsequent episodes, and dissimilar colour schemes in the dining room and the main sleeping room. Throughout the remainder of the series, the dining room is reserved for more than formal occasions.

Background and production [edit]

Conception and development [edit]

The cast of The Cosby Prove in 1989

In the early 1980s, Marcy Carsey and Tom Werner, two quondam executives at ABC, left the network to start their own product visitor.[xvi] At ABC, they had overseen sitcoms such as Mork & Mindy, Three'due south Company, and Welcome Back, Kotter. The 2 partners decided that to get a sitcom to sell for their fledgling visitor, they needed a large name behind it. The career of Bill Cosby, who starred in two failed sitcoms during the 1970s, produced award-winning stand up-up one-act albums, and had roles in several different films, was relatively static during the early 1980s. According to a Chicago Tribune article from July 1985, despite Carsey and Werner'south connection to the network, Lewis Erlicht, president of ABC Entertainment, passed on the show, prompting a pitch to rival network, NBC.

Outside of his work on his cartoon series Fatty Albert and the Cosby Kids, Cosby was doing piddling in motion picture or television, but Carsey and Werner were fans of Cosby's stand-up one-act and idea it would exist the perfect fabric for a family unit sitcom.[17]

Cosby originally proposed that the couple should both accept blue-collar worker jobs, with the begetter a limousine driver,[18] who owned his own auto, and the mother an electrician.[19] With advice from his married woman Camille Cosby, though, the concept was changed so that the family unit was well-off financially, with the mother a lawyer and the father a physician.[20] [21]

Cosby wanted the program to exist educational, reflecting his own background in education. He as well insisted that the program be taped in New York Metropolis instead of Los Angeles, where virtually tv programs were taped.[22] The Huxtable home outside was filmed at ten St. Luke'southward Place near 7th Avenue in Manhattan's Greenwich Village (although in the show, the residence was the fictional "10 Stigwood Avenue").[23]

Production notes [edit]

Early on episodes were videotaped at NBC's Brooklyn studios (subsequently JC Studios).[24] The network after sold that edifice, and production moved to the Kaufman Astoria Studios in Queens.[25] Even though the evidence was set to take place in Brooklyn, the outside façade was actually of a brownstone townhouse located in Manhattan's Greenwich Village at ten Leroy Street/ ten St. Luke'south Place.[26] The airplane pilot was filmed in May 1984, with season one'south production commencing that July, and the beginning taping on August 1 (Goodbye Mr. Goldfish).[27] [28]

During its original NBC run, it was i of v successful sitcoms on the network that featured predominantly African-American casts. The others were 227 (1985–xc), Amen (1986–91), Cosby Show spin-off A Different Globe (1987–93) and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (1990–96).

Although the cast and characters were predominantly African-American,[29] the programme was unusual in that issues of race were rarely mentioned when compared to other situation comedies of the time with predominantly African-American casts, such as The Jeffersons.[30] All the same, The Cosby Testify had African-American themes, such as the Civil rights movement, and it often promoted African-American civilization and civilisation of Africa represented by artists and musicians such as Jacob Lawrence, Miles Davis, James Brown, B.B. King, Stevie Wonder, Sammy Davis Jr., Lena Horne, Duke Ellington, Dizzy Gillespie and Miriam Makeba.[31]

The spin-off, A Different World, dealt with racial issues more often.[32] The series finale (taped March 6, 1992)[33] aired during the 1992 Los Angeles riots, with Cosby quoted in media at the time pleading for peace.[34] [35]

During the 3rd season, Rashad was significant with her girl Condola. Rather than write this pregnancy in, the producers simply greatly reduced Rashad's scenes or filmed in such a fashion that her pregnancy was not noticeable.[36]

Another master cast fellow member pregnancy, that of Bonet, almost caused the actress to exist fired, particularly coming in the wake of appearing in the film Angel Heart, which contained explicit sexual scenes with actor Mickey Rourke. Cosby strongly disapproved of Bonet'due south role, but allowed her to continue on World until returning to Cosby later her pregnancy. Tensions remained, even so, and Bonet was eventually fired in April 1991.[37]

Theme vocal and opening sequence [edit]

The show's theme music, "Osculation Me", was composed by Stu Gardner and Bill Cosby.[38] 7 versions of this theme were used during the run of the serial, making it one of the few television series to use multiple versions of the aforementioned theme song over the grade of a series. For season four, the theme vocal music was performed by musician Bobby McFerrin.[39]

Due to legal complications regarding the background mural, the opening for flavour seven was filmed on August 17, 1990, at Kaufman Astoria Studios in New York City, New York was replaced with the ane from the previous season.[xl] [41] [42] The original flavor-seven opening, with slight modifications, returned to employ in the beginning of season eight.
