The only episode that put me to sleep when the huxtable famil came to visit was the one with Grandpa Huxtable. He was truly a boring man.

Those were two different episodes. When Clsire was helping students with interviewing skills-that was the episode-Success, Lies and Videotape. And when Vanessa and her fast talking friend came along with Claire to Hillman is the episode Risky Business.

I wonder why none of the Huxtables were invited to Whitley's wedding to Byron. Whitley at least knew Clair, Denise, Rudy and Theo.

To answer the question though, I don't remember whether or not I cared back when the show was on the air, but watching ADW now, I'm such a big fan of ADW I don't like any references to the Huxtables, except when the Denise character was still on the show.

I still don't know why Claire still made guest appearances and Denise had been gone 2 years.

I liked the episode where Dwayne & Whitley go to New York & Dwayne goes to see Denise only to find out that she is now married. It sort of brought some closure to the Dwayne/Denise relationship & the Huxtable's connection to A Different World because by that time, ADW didn't seem like a Cosby Show spinoff anymore. I think that was also the last time any of the Huxtables were on & even mentioned on ADW.

No that wasn't the last time a Huxtable appeared, Claire appeared on ADW one last time in 1990 in the episode "Sex, Lies, and Videotape".

I don't know but wasn't her character a graduate of Hillman?

Well it still looked weird for the Claire Huxtable character to appear when Denise was no longer on the show.

Yes. I loved it.
