I definately think Cousin Pam. Look at all the screen time she stole from Vanessa and Denise in the last 2 seasons.

Pam.. what was the point? They already had teenage girls on the show! Who needs another one.

I just started watching Cosby Show a few months ago and have seen a couple of Pam episodes on TBS and hate them... She has no business being on the show and I can't stand watching season 7 now, b/c she is in them.. Does anyone know if she steals a lot of camera time in season 8?

Pam was the worse addition. I never understood the purpose of adding her to the show.

Yea, Pam and her friends totally killed the show. If it wasn't for that bonehead move, Cosby could have lasted a few more years, into the mid 90s easily. I hate watching the episodes with her. I noticed even in the reunion show last night, they did not include any shots of Pam -- guess the producers didn't want to remind themselves of the disaster they created?

Pam (how original, huh? :D) I remember reading back when she was first coming on, that Bill Cosby wanted something that would attract younger viewers (they were on against the Simpsons at that time) and he called her a "secret weapon." Too bad they couldn't have just changed Vaness'as character a bit and they still could have done similar stories. For the record, I did like Charmain and Lance though. :lol:

Cousin Pam. There was no point in adding her to the show and she didn't add anything.

And Pam really hogged the camera and we saw little of Vanessa once she came on the show...and the fact that they would always say Cousin Pam, Cousin Cliff, Cousin Clair, really bugged me.

I agree that Pam was the worst. I think that was when I lost interest in the show. I can't wait for the reruns of those shows to finish so we can get back to the beginning shows. The ones that were really funny. They wasted too much good air time on Pam.

Another vote for Cousin Pam. She just didn't clique with the rest of the family, at least not in my opinion.

My vote goes to...Pam! She was by far the worst addition because she simply had no purpose in the family. Also her friends were really annoying, at least to me. I think Pam was sort of a Vanessa replacement when Tempest Bledsoe could not appear on very many shows because she was attending college, and because Vanessa was always my favorite, I missed her and felt Pam was a poor substitute!:(

According to schedules, Nick at Nite should be getting back to Season 1 early sunday morning at 12:30 am eastern time... the finale is on early saturday and late saturday eastern time.. They should be getting to season 1 on TBS around June 26th.. WGN is currently in season 5, I think...

Pam. She was just a big loudmouth who didn't fit in. I can't stand her. Why didn't they have more of Vanessa? Did she want less air time or something? Charmin was funny though.

The reason Vanessa wasn't featured much in season 7 or 8 much, is because I think she was in college? I'm not sure though...
