sorry guys, but both of those shows you mentioned are not produced by Carsey-Werner also The New Bill Cosby Show was more of a variety show instead of a sitcom anyway

Both shows that I mentioned were variety shows and I knew that already because Bill Cosby didn't have any sitcoms in the 70's

Who said anything about Carsey-Warner? I just was pointing out he had another sit-com in 1969, The Bill Cosby Show.

However I like THE COSBY SHOW, the best of all of them, anyway.:cool: Is Cosby ever broadcasted? I haven't seen much of this show. Needs to be released on DVD.

Not only that he was wrong as TWO LEFT SHOES because his shows in the 70's were not sitcoms LOL

He had two variety Shows--The New Bill Cosby Show (1972-73)
and Cos (Sep-Nov 1976)

And yes he did have a sit-com in the '70's, The Bill Cosby Show, though it started in Sep '69, it ran til Sep. 71. Its a good show!

It started in 1969 which makes it a 60's sitcom and not on the 1970's sitcoms board,

OK, well no matter, I just wanted to point this show out, though I understand the poll is for the most recent shows The Cosby Show and Cosby.:cool:

Well, it can still be classified as a 70's sitcom due to the face that the show only aired for less than four months in the 60's vs a year and a half during the 70's. Brady Bunch also started the same time Cosby's sitcom did and Brady is classifed as a 70's sitcom. So, it is debatable.

BTW, I think I like the Cosby Show over Cosby but I loved Cosby because if was a funny program. Madeline Kahn was hilarious. She had me in stiches.

Cosby is actually on GMC (Gospel Music Channel) Week(mid)nights at 1am E/T.

It also airs Saturdays in a marathon starting at 5pm E/T on GMC. I hope that helps.

I will take any season of Cosby over season 1 of the Cosby Show. It's something about that season that doesn't sit right with me
