    Funny stuff. The first stand-up I ever saw.

    Man! I watched this on my old man's stolen HBO when I was 8 and every time it came on for years. I still do the old quotes "Dad, Chocolate cake behind you!" that makes the GF look at me and shake her head and call me a dork. Come on! This is classic comedy! No swearing, no ...( read more)violence. And you all probably know this was the basis for starting the Cosby show.

    Comedy you can even watch with the kids!

    Good times. One of the rare standups that you can watch with family without cringing.

    I?ve spent a good portion of my life hating Bill Cosby and everything he represents, especially when he?s complaining about the ?filth-flarin?-filth? of other people?s work. Still, it seems like every time I hear a stand up comedian being interviewed they seem to love him and ci...( read more)te him as an influence. I finally got curious enough to check out what Cosby is like when doing standup, and this concert film is largely considered to be his definitive work. Did I find a new found respect for Cosby? Sort of, he at least seems like a reasonable comic here and not the curmudgeon I?ve come to know him as. Still, most of the material he?s talking about here are things I don?t really relate to, it?s comedy for and by middle aged people.

    Moderately funny anecdotes about Bill Cosby beating his children.
