which Bill Cosby sitcom do you like the best?
is it:

Cosby/CBS/(1996-2000)

or is it...

The Cosby Show/NBC/(1984-1992)

vote and comment

BTW, Did You Know...that the 1996-2000 CBS sitcom Cosby is loosely based on the 1990-2000 BBC One British sitcom called One Foot In The Grave?

i apologize for not adding on that show to the Cosby battle TV on the Porch; but sadly, that version was not produced by Carsey-Werner.

COSBY!! When I was younger I preferred The Cosby Show, But as I got older Cosby(1996) grew on me and now I think It's better then the Cosby Show. The Cosby Show seems to peachy-Sugar coated/Corney to me now. The Cosby Show is more kids centered/Family oriented sitcom, while Cosby is more Adults centered which me be why I like it now.
Also one thing I notice about Cosby is that Bill and Phylicia chemistry is different on Cosby then it was on The Cosby Show, It was not what it use to be like once on the show before. They Do have Chemistry on this show but it's just different then before, I can't quite figure it out but the chemistry was just different on Cosby and not the same as on The Cosby show.

Pauline and Griffin were my favorites on Cosby. Also you can watch ALL 22 Minutes 95 episodes of Cosby on YouTube!! http://www.youtube.com/user/PaulWessun

I want to sample more of Cosby on the GMC channel but from the few eps I seen so far it didn't seem too bad

Strange that they haven't started releasing Cosby on DVD. I'd like to get to know this series.
