"I loved this show. I wanted to be Denise Huxtable (Lisa Bonet). It's a shame about Bill Cosby. This was a huge show in its time. I never missed an episode. I still use "I brought you into this world and I can take you out!" when appropriate. 😆"

"Before he was known for being a creepy weirdo bill Cosby was a household name and one of the things he did was as this hilarious sitcom about an African American family struggling with everyday issues "

Craig Koffler

"It's unfortunate how stained this is now. Regardless, it still stands as one of the most positive Black sitcoms produced in America. It avoids a lot of racist stereotypes that foster the ratchet "culture" we see so often today. I love it for that."
