Default Which couple would you have liked to see less of? Sandra and Elvin or The

Grandparents? I defintely could have done with the Grandparents. It was just something about Grandpa Russell that annoyed the hell out of me. Maybe it was him trying to persuade Denise to go to Hillman-lol

I could have done without the grandparents and Sondra and Elvin.I only liked the Cosby Show when the plotlines were based around the kids,and the parents dealing with them.I switch off episodes that aren't like that.

I didnt mind the grandparents till they started that Hillman crap, after that I couldnt stand when they were around.
Sondra and Elvin were okay until they had those babies, then they were just awful to watch
I like Denise and Martin, but if they were together on the show you know you had to deal with Olivia being on the show and I hated her character the most so they became a couple I didnt want to watch.

Heather, I had to laugh when you said that they started on that "Hillman Crap" because it is kinda funny. LOL. "This one's going to Hillman!" said Grandpa Huxtable. LOL. However, I did like the grandparents and now that I am older, I see how they add historical culture to the show. I liked Sondra and Elvin. Elvin played well off Sondra. It was always funny to see Sondra mad at Elvin and to see Sondra go psychotic when she thought that Clair and Francine were trying to steal her twins. That is a side her that people don't get to see.

Winnie and Nelson were handfuls until they grew up and started talking then they were O.K.

It was funny when Sondra and Elvin moved into their (1rst) apartment. It was terrible!!

Ditto.. If the episode usually doesn't involve Denise,Theo,Vanessa or Rudy, I'm often not interested. I really think the kids are what really made this show funny alone!
