Default Pointless episodes

You know what I'm talking about... Those pointless, stupid episodes.

The one where Cliff and his 200-year-old friends are bowling, then they play some kinda baseball game in the house, then Clair walks in and gives Cliff a mean look, and the episode ends. WHAT IS THE POINT OF THESE EPISODES? The writers of these episodes must've been high when they wrote them.

Hey I love that episode-lol. It was nice to see just the men chilling together and acting like children all over again by playing ball in the living room. I really like that episode a lot. I was kind of uoset when Clair and the other women came back home.

I think it was that and also because for the longest time they had him speaking and nothing else going on.

i think Mr. Monitor was talking about the episode with Cliff and his Friends playing ball in the living room. I like when the man said-"Ok are you ready Cliff? This ball is coming all the way from jamaico-LOL

A Pointless episode was any episode that revolved around rudy and her friends during season 1 and 2.

The ep with all of the pregnant men was not only funny to me but I found it stupid. What was the moral of the story?? Someone must have been on something when they wrote that.

Also the one where Rudy is reading a story & she dreams about this fantasy world where Rudy is a princess & the rest of the family are villagers or something like that.

Any episode that revolved around Rudy before 1989 was UNWATCHABLE

Nah...I could identify...I have nothing against college..it's just that the episode dragged....the President wasn't a very interesting character. It was like "yippeee the Huxtables are going on a field trip!" It may have been more interesting to focus on Denise's freshman experience (that was pre- a different world)
80 percent of the Cosby episodes I enjoyed (except the last season)
