Crazy how fast time flies by.

It is amazing how far in the future we are now. When the show ended in 1993, the Andy Griffith Show was thirty years ago. But the Cosby Show and similar shows of that era are much closer to ours now minus the technology. If it was now, Denise, Vanessa and Theo would have mobile phones and talk about the culture it spawned. Cos would be bitching at Theo to get off of Tik Tok, and quit saying he is a "gamer" and all of that.

It goes without saying how disappointed of how we all are of what we learned about Bill Cosby now from then, and now his show is completely unwatchable. The wife Claire was a witch also.
