Bill Cosby

Discuss.
He didn't have a very good week.

He may want to take his millions and just disappear.
His show at TI next week in Vegas was cancelled.
One woman speaking out may be a crackpot, maybe even two. There are too many women coming forward. I listened to Lou Ferrigno's wife and I don't think she is lying. He pulled the Lance Armstrong ploy back then, of threatening anybody who came forward with multi-million dollar lawsuits. I feel the network also helped him out. Just think if all of this had come out before he ever taped The Cosby Show.

What we need is a dysfunctional celebrity reality show....kind like Big Brother minus all the dumb competitions. Just let BillCosby, Mel Gibson, Tom Cruise, and Lindsay Lohan share a house or 3 months and let the cameras pick pthe highlites
Why are shows having nothing to do with "reality" called "reality shows"?

I always resented the notion that Cosby saved the sitcom in the early '80s. IMO 'The Cosby Show' was the fourth best sitcom on NBC on Thursday nights. And the other three were already established when it premiered.
As much as it pains me I feel there is way too much smoke for there not to be a fire. I always felt Cosby was one of the good ones and just an all around good guy. I am sorry too say I now have serious doubts about his character.

The stories are way too similar coming from too many woman from too many different backgrounds. The thing that gets me is with his fame and fortune and did not have to resort to this for sexual gratification. Even if it was a power thing he could have paid for a drop dead gorgeous hooker to play along.

I just hope he is innocent but I do have serious doubts.

That's pretty much the impression I have of the situation.
