If they knew Theo was upset about not being on Dance Mania, why the hell would they be so anxious to watch Cockroach on dance mania? Why not support their brother and not watch Dance Mania at all? That would have made Theo less upset but the entire Family is sitting in the living room treating Cockroach like a STAR

LOL


I would have snapped to

Wasn't Cockroach like a family friend? So why not watch your friend on TV. Just because Theo was upset, that doesn't mean that the family had to cater to his feelings. PLUS it was Theo's own fault that he wasn't on Dance Mania.

Wouldn't Vanessa and Rudy be closer to their own brother than their brother's friend????

What does that have to do with anything? They did nothing to Theo. If Rudy and Vanessa wanted to sit and watch their friend on TV, then they should have been able to do so in peace. Theo was the one with the attitude because he cheated himself out of being on a TV Show. So he should not be babied just because he was upset over something that was his fault.

I can understand why Theo was upset, I would have been pissed also. But Theo had no one to be mad at other than himself.

But as sisters why did they want to watch cockroach in front of theo? They could have went upstairs to watch it. And then stupid Clair comes running in the living and never asked why Theo wasn't on TV with cockroach until he snapped LOL


Clair, Vanessa, and Rudy showed no compassion LOL

I don't see anything wrong with the family watching the program. Theo was a big boy, almost an adult. He could have gone and sulked in the corner while the family had a good times watching Tina and Cockroach.

It was Theo's fault as to why he was mad. So why should the whole family suffer?

So if you was 13 and your 17 year old brother was upset you wouldn't want to help feel better? Or since he was almost a man no emotional support was needed?:lol:

No, I would tease him, that is what siblings do. :lol: And why should they try to make Theo feel better? It was HIS FAULT.

Vanessa seem like she was trying to purposely upset him when she was like

"GOOD MOVE COCKROACH!!!


LMAO:lol:


Between Clair, vanessa, Rudy, and Cliff, Theo was qualified to jump off a bridge LMAO

No one knew that Theo was PO'ed, for all they knew he had an attitude just out of the blue. AND he threw Rudy's phone in the middle of the street for no good reason.

I just can't believe no one in the family asked him....Why are you not on Dance mania with cockroach?

They probably did ask him how it went since Vanessa and Rudy said that they wanted to see Cockroach. But Theo prob acted as though there was nothing bothering him. Throwing Rudy's phone in the street, slamming into the kitchen door and getting upset with his family was uncalled for.

I must say that when Vanessa and Rudy saw that Theo was watching TV they should have gone upstairs to watch the other TV. On the other hand when Theo said that he was going upstairs, he should have gone upstairs and not start a fight.

He was but tripped on the phone and they started laughing lol

And he threw the phone in the street (uncalled for) and then he started to yell at Vanessa and Rudy. Theo was the one with the problem, not everyone else.

When he tripped they were supposed to ask......OMG Theo are you ok?

LOL not start laughing

That what big families do. It's was Theo's fault for acting like a spoiled brat. And if i was the baby sister and he threw my phone in the street and it got ruined, my mom would have made him pay for a new one after sending him to his room.

He threw it in the street because she called him a name after laughing when he fell LOL

They could have made sure he wasn't hurt.

Anyone would have laughed, If your brother and sister trips, you laugh. He didn't fall hard and bust his head, he tripped, got up and threw Rudy's phone into the street. So of course he was fine.

Exactly, Theo was mad at himself and he was taking that anger out on everyone in the house.

Well said, Brieannas21!!! And I still think his throwing Rudy's toy into the street was a bit much. It's not like Cockroach took his girl lol!!!

I'm still mad Clair was so hype to see Cockroach on TV and not wondering why her son wasn't with him:lol:

You will always find a reason to hate on Claire, won't you?!! :lol:

I will also always find a reason! :lol: Never liked snobby Claire......and she did treat the girls differently than Theo. Theo could have used some support from her during the whole dance mania disaster.

Was there ever an instance where you liked Claire?

What's wrong with that? There isn't a rule that says you can only be happy for your children. And did you forget that Theo told Claire why he was angry WHEN they got into the kitchen?????

And you should be mad at Theo for acting like a Big Ol' Baby. He was throwing a hissy fit.

But she was the one who gave the tickets to THEO. So if that's the case why did she take so long to ask him....."Why are you not on the show?


This is the weirdest episode of the cosby show:lol: :lol:

But she was the one who gave the tickets to THEO. So if that's the case why did she take so long to ask him....."Why are you not on the show?

Yeah, really. My mom would have been mad that I wasn't on TV too.


So, what's the moral of this episode? If you want something, get it. Because if you don't, your friend will.

Exactly, she was never going to ask Theo why he wasn't on the show if he never snapped out and burst through the kitchen door. LOL

Then when he snapped she finally says in the kitchen......"honey how is it that cockroach got on the show and you didn't?:lol:

Maybe because not all teenagers hang around at home all day. Or maybe it's because Claire was a working woman and she could have been at work all day. Theo was practically a grown man, and he was too old to act the way he was acting. He was acting like a pissy spoiled brat. No one should baby a big ass almost grown teenager.

Then when he snapped she finally says in the kitchen......"honey how is it that cockroach got on the show and you didn't?:lol:

She made a big fuss over Rudy being on the football team ("sweet feet"), being on TV should have been a big thing too.

So it still sounds like you are saying almost grown or grown men don't need emotional support:lol:

Emotional support for what? :lol: It wasn't THAT big of a deal. For a teen it may have seemed so, but still. Theo was just throwing a tantrum!! :lol:

Maybe not for that but Brieanna is saying that a mother is never supposed to wonder why her 17 year old son is upset because he is almost a man LOL

I did not say that. I said that Theo shouldn't be babied for something that isn't worth spending your energy on. What Claire told him was correct, he was mad at himself and he was putting that anger out on his family who did nothing to him. Theo was acting as if he was ok with the fact that Cockroach got on the show, and then all of a sudden he flips and cops an attitude for no good reason. That is what bipolar people do. That was a bipolar move LOL

LOL, it might have explained to viewers the Cockroach character's inexplicable disappearance from the show!! LOL!!
I'm telling you, the Dance Mania thing may have been a friendship killer and caused a permanent rift in their friendship!! ;) :lol:

P.S., I didn't think the actor who played Cockroach's hair was that long!? :confused:

It wasn't the length of his hair it was the style of his hair Bill Cosby had a issue with. The guy who played cockroach had a process/S Curl and Bill cosby didn't like it

Oooh. For some reason I thought it was the hair length. I think I read that on wikipedia or something. But with the hairstyle, wasn't that just nitpicking?
