I used to watch this growing up. I was born in 1975 and I caught the re- runs and I liked the show. It was a great show, unfortunately they don’t make cartoons like this anymore. I wished they would.
No matter what Cosby did or they claim he did doesn't matter. Fat Albert is part of my child hood. And I'll always support this cartoon and the guy who created it.
Bruh… there is no “they claim he did”, he fucking did it. It was a proven open-and-shut case 🤦🏼♂️ Ya boy is a rapist. That doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy his creations, Michael Jackson was a pedophile and people still enjoy his music guilt free. Enjoy what he created, but don’t defend the rapist just because you like his silly little cartoon…
From the time I was in kindergarten to the time I was in high school, I have watched Fat Albert, and The Cosby Kids religiously, and enjoyed it. Thanks, Mr. Cosby.
Indeed, agreed. I like shows like that one was, shame on Cosby for got himself in trouble. Before the drama, he was one of my wise role models, now I've regret it.
@Khameleon1 my point was, if you mention it then it does. Nobody says "as a human being...". Obviously he wanted attention. Was it done consciously, I don't know.
This was my favorite cartoon of all time. For a middle-class kid, it taught me that everyone is not so fortunate. Yet, it didn't matter because they had the same cares and concerns that I did and I could relate to them and laugh along with them.
I thank God for Bill Cosby and everyone involved in the show! I will always love this show, the songs, and the message. I showed my dad the Wombley episode to encourage him to stop smoking. Within the same week, my dad fully quit smoking.❤
@@fungames821 Bucky wasn't a very popular fan favorite. As for Mushmouth, as much as I like the guy, do you really wanna watch & listen to a guy that sounds like his lips got stung by bees for half an hour?
I grew up hearing Bill on records. I then saw reruns of Fat Albert on TV, and even a few times on seseme street. He's a big part of my childhood, and although his record isn't spotless, I'm glad to have known him.
Regardless of this man's crimes, I enjoyed fat Albert and the Cosby kids when I was growing up. I sincerely hope the generations can ignore the transgressions of the creator, and just enjoy the creation, because these life lessons that the show conveyed to the young viewers were worth watching, even if they were hypocritically ignored by Bill Cosby himself.
I still respect the public image of Cosby that we knew. That image encouraged family values and inspired generations of Black men like myself to become educated, hold and a job, etc.
I watched the cartoon and loved it! I even had a Fat Albert lunch box. I thought the junkyard they played in would be a great place, and I envied them that place.
I grew up watching Fat Albert ever Saturday and loved the movie. I was told by a white liberal I was racist for liking the show. What? I never thought of the show racially. They were just like my knuckleheaded friends. One could argue it introduced me into the love of black culture. Is it racist I like Run DMC, Wutang, Marvin Gaye, Jimi Hendrix, Fishbone, Sade, George Clinton, James Brown, etc?
Well some of the characters were kinda offensive like Mush Mouth who is incredibly lazy and spouts unintelligible gibberish, Chris Rock talked about how he got made fun of at school because white kids expected him to talk funny like that. The show has it's good points but good lord Mush Mouth was a terrible idea who never should've made it to the screen.
@@jadedheartsz I have a problem with people who think they know the world and haven't met a 1000 human beings. Did he exaggerate his speech impediment. Of course. But there are many type of vocal twerks. Use Google.
Regardless of current affairs surrounding Cosby, his comedy routines in the sixties and comedy albums (I had them all) were some of the best comedy ever created. Clean, but absolutely the funniest material you ever heard. My family laughed over and over again with all the Fat Albert stories. I still remember the hernia bit. Its so sad that Cosby the legend is now Cosby the letcher.
Growing up in the South as a white kid in rural Appalachia, this and other tv shows in the 70’s was my first exposure to Black culture. Now, mind you, there was a lot of stereotypes that I had to learn my way out of later as I became more learned and more worldly, but to this day, regardless of what may have happened, I have separated art from artist and still enjoy the work that Dr Cosby and others have helped us as a culture to grow.
These cartoon guys were real! In the movie that was made about Fat Albert, they showed his grave and the guys who Bill grew up with and talked about. I with people would let a man who has done his time alone. I the work of the Crosby Show and the real problems they face, and I like again the cartoons that helped kids and let them know they were not going through things alone. Others face them too, showed how they could get help! Thanks to his late Son.
Yeah because everyone believes that an accuser says you did something 40 years past, when no one in the world could possibly defend themselves. I'm sad that so many people who found him funny and laughed now suddenly act like he's a terrible person that no one likes because of what he was accused of.
The part where Bill was talking about fat characters being depicted as assholes or doofuses really aged well. Considering the fact that Fat Albert was created before Homer Simpson, Peter Griffin, and Eric Cartman even existed.
I love Bill cosby for the wonderful things he did and shows he created. Gotta give him his due, his flowers he contributed some good stuff to the world. Especially Black folk. Thank you Mr. Cosby. Ioved the Fat Albert Show.
I'm not focused on Bill cosbosy and what he did anymore. I'm not gonna allow his choices to overshadow the awesome things that were created back then for us. To do that is to forget all the other people who contributed to this awesome series!!! It definitely was and still is awesome because I still watch them to this day:)
I watch this show ; educational and I was 4 years old. I learn a lot and music new to me and fun. Thanks Cosby. I hope there will be fat Albert 2 with same actor from 2004.
Bill Cosby is pure genius. Fat Albert was an integral part of my childhood. I was 6 ears old when it came out. I lived in a small community in a state with almost zero diversity. Fat Albert and Cosby opened the door to show this 6 year old boy that people are people no matter what color they come in. God Bless Mr Cosby
I never thought about them being inner city black kids except that I was jealous they got to hang out in a junkyard. Grass is always greener. Every kid loved Mush-mouth. We would all try to mimic his way of talking.
What Bill emphasized, which set him apart from other activists in the industry past and present was that he never pushed 'by any means necessary', but instead pushed the ideology yjat there has to be a better way, let's find one. A profound statement that still holds up today.
I liked it, but I thought their lips were exaggerated and his height and size suggested he was at least 16 yet he acted like a 10 year old. The singer was Melvin Franklin the bass in Temptations
They went over the Gang episode and even touched on the Child abuse episode But the No no episodes to go over were the Computer hacking Cancer STD’s Teen drug use/drug pusher episodes also The prison episode Teen drinking episodes
God grant that none of the self-righteous here and in so many other places ever have someone from their past step forward and decide that now's the time to settle an old score, get back at them for something real or imagined, and accuse them of having done something so long ago that no one could possibly defend themselves against it in a "your word against mine" situation. You may rather suddenly realize that it's not nearly so comfortable a position as sitting back and judging someone else as so many feel they can do with Bill Cosby.
As a kid at about 6 years old boy watching Fat Albert along with hearing the a song from the Junk yard band thought it was a great cartoon had no idea rasist was just a great Saturday morning cartoons
It’s still hard to believe the things they say Bill Cosby did because he projected so much positivity and in a lot of white kids homes fat Albert was the first black person ever to come into their home so that says a lot
Listen. No one knows what really happened. The entertainment industry is tough and full of people looking for opportunity and will do anything for it. All of have moments of depravity and need to God to grow to be better. Bill was and still is an icon. I still watch fat Albert today. It takes me back to my childhood.
Oh wow. What a clever comment - I hope you didn't work a long time on that one because you wasted your time. God grant you're never accused by someone of something you supposedly did 40+ years past and suddenly are crucified for it.
Remember when Fat Albert came out as a young boy had no idea what racist was the cartoons showed everyone was working to gether at the same time the show Roots came out that was the first as young boy seeing racists really tough to understand with people fighting because of the color of their skin
In the words of Alice from "Alice in Wonderland" to describe Cosby's situation: He gave himself very good advice, but he very seldom follow it.😔 I'll still watch "Fat Albert" even if Cosby's reputation is tarnished. If people can still like "Ren & Stimpy" despite what that disgusting creep John K did, why not the same with "Fat Albert"?
I enjoy Bill Cosby works all of it . I don't believe the women because they took a hundred years to speak up. It was all about money 💵. Just my opinion. 🤷🏽♀️

The show that teach kids about life lessons.

More like hey Arnold
I loved Fat Albert as a kid in the 1970’s, as a white suburbanite kid and race didn’t matter, it was a kid watching other kids.😊
Obviously it does matter. You wouldn't have mention it if it didn't.

Living in Utica,NY especially on Saturday Mornings in the 1970’s & early 1980’s, Fat Albert was definitely apart of my childhood !!!!

I got introduced to the fat albert (2004) movie then when i learned of the 70’s cartoon i did everything i could watch the series. Loved it!
I wish this was available on DVD & Blu-ray
It is on Dvd. Might wanna try second hand stores or ebay, but it has been released on dvd.

This is one of the greatest cartoons out, even more so with the trash of today!
I enjoyed the show, and I saw "color" (and black culture) each fun episode I watched as a kid and adult. That's why the show was different and fun.
Hey hey hey hey, run for you life
Fat Albert is the most important Saturday Morning Cartoon of all-time.
I watch this show ; educational and I was 4 years old. I learn a lot and music new to me and fun. Thanks Cosby. I hope there will be fat Albert 2 with same actor from 2004.
Hey, hey, hey, Fat Albert & The Cosby Kids were A 👌 😊.
I'm a lifelong Fat Albert fan. The live action movie could've been better but the animated series will never not be a classic. Still good to this day.

Raised on this cartoon
That's a good character of this show 😁👌🏽💓😁
I just stood up from my chair. It's 3 AM. Why am i watching the Fat Albert Documentary (2012)?
They dont even mention the 1969 Fat Albert cartoon. Quite a difference from what we know now.
We knew they were Brown Foh that's why it was a Classic I have cousins in North Philly and West Philly where im from
HEY HEY HEYYYYYY!!!
Thank you Dr. Cosby, Dr. Poussaint. Master C. Nelson. Jeff CBS-TV. 1974-Sign off.

Just because Bill Cosby ended his career, doesn’t mean he’s committing suicide.

Come on out, Fat Albert!
Add a comment I like the fat Albert show and I like the animated cartoons series episodes videos and the music as well.
Those women went there own accord
Russell is based on Bill Cosby's real-life younger brother.
They went over the Gang episode and even touched on the Child abuse episode
But the No no episodes to go over were the
Computer hacking
Cancer
STD’s
Teen drug use/drug pusher episodes also
The prison episode
Teen drinking episodes
He's not physically strong enough to be a monster
