*And now in 2023 we not rescuing or protecting any woman. They'll remain strong and independent complaining for the rest of their lives. If a woman's getting beat down in the streets, she better have a gun or call 911 cuz she's on her own. Thank you Cosby Show for predicting the future. What a relief* 🤣🤣✌🏿
Geezus fucking Christ, Just stop thinking about race for one goddamn moment because I can see that the media fucked up your brain so hard. These are just amazing people amazing actors amazing characters.. oh my god that was so hard wasn’t it? Think of Dr. Martin Luther King’s saying: focusing on the content of their character. Geezus fuck So goddamn hard isn’t it? You’re fucked up man
Yes they are. Do you remember Growing Pains, Eight Is Enough, Step By Step, The Brady Bunch, Family Ties they all had both parents in the house teaching and raising their kids with the same love and mentality regardless of the color of their skin. And that's real talk my brother. Hit me back any time. Feel free to do so.
@@jeffersonbryant8893the original comment was about Claire and Cliff who happens be black. It’s okay if someone makes a comment that only describes black couples. Stop being offended because no one mentioned the shows that you did that cast white actors. Comments like yours in which you need to feel included (other races) is getting old now… Allow black people to have a shining moment without getting offended.
I love how Cliff got Claire good in this episode...it did not happen very often but when it did it was great and I have to admit Claire was a classy women to be able to take the joke/gag with a sense of humor....
@@msrain1235 That was the "Isn't It Romantic?" episode...and one of my favorite episodes of the entire series, lol. As far as the 'most romantic' gift was concerned, I thought Martin's gift to Denise (the time capsule) was actually the _sweetest_ (most romantic) gift, _but_ Cliff getting Claire on the 'green plastic bracelet' (after describing the wooden barrette with the glass stone that 'Eunice Chantilly' actually wanted, lmao), I can understand why Cliff's gift to Claire won the 'most romantic' contest. 🌷🕊
Nobody commenting this scene ? That was one of the most hilarious of the show 😂 Cliff is just brilliant ! And the other awesome part is Claire 's reaction after she understands he actually read the book 😂😂😂
This is why this show was so well written. He fooled Claire into thinking he did not read the book and he put his foot in it while explaining his perspective while being asked about that very perspective in a room full of women. Just funny beyond belief.
indeed, there are only two kinds of ppl...men & women...one can pretend to be the other, "feel" whatever and be semantical, however, there are two types that God|dess and Mother Nature created re: humans...nothing but scientific fact ...anything else is socio-political, psychological and emotional...
yes it true you can feel as a woman even you are a man but you are still a man that is a FACT and if you can't accept that something is wrong with you cause i will respect you for whatever you decide but there is only men and women
What would really be interesting is to go through all the episodes and see just how many stars in their prime, making cameo appearances, as well as 'stars who were yet to become stars', were on the show. Angela Bassett and Epatha Merkerson here.
I get that this was for comedy, but this is a big problem we have. People easily getting offended at something that differs from them, instead of trying to get their view, then say yours, then have a discussion instead of a one way fight.
It's existed for a long time. I remember reading a comic strip in the 90's where a woman got offended at some kids' Halloween costumes. But now these nuts have platforms to shriek on.
Cliff did pull it together though, I couldn't stop laughing, my girl felt the same as Claire did, especially when he actually read the whole book and really paying attention. 😂 😂
You know say what you want about Bill Cosby and what he's done and how disgusting it is if in fact he did those things he is accused of, but we should never attempt to take what he created with this show from him. I think it will be unfair especially to the amazing Phylicia Rashad and other 4 amazing women who made the Cosby show one of the amazing lessons and a template parents could use to raise family. I find myself modeling my family after the Huxtables each day and I was not even in the country when this show was on the air. This show made it possible for America to see black families in a light that was unimaginable. Thank you to all the creators and the actors of this show for that. I am grateful.
In life, 99% of people do good things and bad things, so I can easily make the distinction between the good Cosby did in his work, and the bad he did outside work. That makes him an average Joe. Its the people who put celebrities in a standard they can't reach themselves.
HE DID NOTHING WRONG. That's What Happened to Successful Black People, They Always Got them when they Outshine the Whites. Their Biggest Threat is BLACK Success.
That's why they BURY him, Bill Cosby should have NEVER shown black people in Such a Positive light. A Lot of White Men Involve in Some serious Crimes, and They have never been Charged for Nothing. The ONLY Reason Why Bill Cosby was charged is because they wanted to destroy the Image of the Cosby Show around the World. The LAST Thing White People want to see Black people been painted in a Positive way. The Worst black people look, is the Better White People Look, Because they are NOTHING. So for them to Look Good They have to Bury Black People. Black people MUST Decrease For Them to Increase. THEY KNOW WE ARE THE REAL HUMANS.
When he said rescued why did they get offended? Dang I love it when my husband swoops in to save the day he's my knight in shining armor and it makes me feel feminine and safe and valued. Shoot when did everything become offensive?
This was '80s during the time of Oprah and Sally Jesse Rafael Shows... and women wanting to not be defined by a man. Personally, I think that's why we are in the mess we are present-day. There should be room for men to be men, and women to be women...without being considered offensive.
It became offensive when women 'assume' that men are the ONLY ones who can and SHOULD rescue women...not willing to concentrate this ideology to the confines of a heterosexual relationship sprinkled with any ounce of romance...yeah..."Hopeless Romantic" right here! But my wife loves it #28yrsncounting
2:13 Cliff: And then, not as obvious as the others...in the description of the Silo. Claire: The Silo, i didn't think of that... Cliff: Well, it's not that obvious... lol
Okay, now I agreed with Cliff! Women can have a need to be rescued as can men! But by censoring Cliff and not allowing him to speak from his perspective you could already see the beginning of the "political correctness" road. People can no longer speak from their hearts for fear of insulting someone. Even if someone is less correct on a matter don't they have the right to feel how they feel and respectfully express those feelings? 😉
@joseph robinson Good question. Speaking as a woman, some women in general don't know THE TRUTH. SOME like CLAIR HYPOCRITE HUXTABLE can't handle the truth. Some such as myself don't mind it as long as it's fair and said respectfully.
I want to know if the man I'm speaking to is sexist and doesn't see me as an equal rather than go on blindly and blissfully thinking he respects me as a person. I'm gonna be upset, yeah, but I'd rather know.
I just want a financially secure man because I’m not gonna mother him and bear all the financial weight of the family myself, if he’s going to be a member of my family he’d better contribute. I don’t need him to rescue me from anything.
So...you can add Angela Bassett and the Sista from Law and Order to the LONG list of actors and actresses that got their Hollywood start from The Cosby Show
Cliff,i thought you are not comparing women to children are you? 4:47 Don't you want some coffee?😂 Cliff:What am saying is that women.... Women: mmmmmhhh (all in unison)😂
Am I not supposed to think Cosby Show is brilliant because of the terrible things the man who played the role did in real life? because i love this show
I’m still a fan of the show regardless Cliff Huxtable and Bill Cosby are two different people one is just a character the other is a man we’ve never known personally
Phylisha Phylisha, Phylisha Rashad, That Woman is so Underrated. She is the Best in Every Sense of the Word. Angela Bassett is Not Underrated, She is just Authentic, Angella and Phylisha Acting Skills Are Raw and Real, But Phylisha is so much more Intellectually Intelligent, Skilled, and Polished.
Angela Basset has been about 38 years old for the past 30 years.
She is 66 now and looks FANTASICT!
Just what am thinking to be
He played all of them lol....nothing beats being prepared.
absolutely
@@Keithst-e7zTHAT WILL TEACH CLAIRE HYPOCRITE HUXTABLE NEVER TO UNDERESTIMATE CLIFF FRAIDY CAT LIKE THAT.
Claire's side looks to Cliff are fabulously expressive. She says more with one look than a million words could ever say.
Both of them were amazing at giving expressive looks on this show.
Agreed. It's called talent.
Yes she does.....side looks are on point always
Claire is an extremely good looking woman!
I love this scene because Claire thinks that Cliff didn't read the book and he did and the women liked what he was saying until the "rescue " line!
😊😊😊😂😂😅
*And now in 2023 we not rescuing or protecting any woman. They'll remain strong and independent complaining for the rest of their lives.

Yes I agree but it was sweet just the same and yes he took one for the team 😅
He started out good and then dug himself a deep pit! 😂😂😂😂😂
Sarah McPeters He certainly did.
@@SheniceSays214 The us as women disect Cliff Fraidy Cat like a frog. Can't hardly blame him.
Prime example of should have quit while he was ahead. Lol
Cliff went up against some heavy hitters Angela Bassett and S. Epatha Merkerson
🤣🤣🤣
That pinch Claire gave him.
Yup😂😂😂
Brilliant scene. The Cosby Show was one of the best ever.
The best ever lol
OMG this is one of those classic scenes in tv history that can never be duplicated. So much fun to watch.
Clair and Cliff though. She knows him like the back of her hand. Their whole interaction with each other is lovely to be honest.
so rare to see cliff getting one over claire. its hilarious!
He rolled his eyes 👀 lol 😂 don’t play with em cliff! He thought he had them. “Don’t you want some coffee!”. Yea very classic!
S. Epatha Merkerson!!! What an amazing actress. She has been on everything🎉🎉🎉
I remember she was on Pee wee play house as Rita the mail lady
Cliff was a hot mess😂😂
You had em' in the first half, Cliff...
S. Epatha (The CAPTAIN from Law & Order) AND Angela Basset on one Cosby show episode????? Yes, please!
Angela Bassett was actually on two episodes. This one and another one when she played a pregnant woman.
Angela Basset was in two Cosby Show episodes.
Lt. Van Buuren, one of my favourite characters from the show. What a great actress.
Now on Chicago Med. That is my girl Sharon. LOL. ROTFL.
😂😂 Cliff got Claire real good..
is it what the whole idea of what this meeting is about. 🤣🤣
The greatest television sitcom of all time.
Cliff and Claire, always making us smile! Peace!
Every week we got to see black love on our tv!
Yes n may I add they shows us what an romantic n loving marriage should be as well as excellent parents. I'm being taught by their example

That what Clair Hypocrite gets for messing with Cliff.
I love Angela Bassett so much I wish she did more comedies because this lady is funny man

Love it when men show that they have been paying attention all along.
I will always love the "Cosby show" it's one of my favorite TV shows.
The show brought me so many laughs
This is literally me during a class discussion and I’m being graded for it 😂
This is why this show was so well written. He fooled Claire into thinking he did not read the book and he put his foot in it while explaining his perspective while being asked about that very perspective in a room full of women. Just funny beyond belief.

This is my favorite show of all time. This episode was hilarious.
Lotta talent sitting on that couch!
I love this cliff was comical.
I can’t believe I watched all 8 seasons of the Cosby show on Amazon prime video. I LOVE this show.♥️
"What other people? There's only two kinds of people, men and women!"
Wow, you'd get crucified for saying that today in 2021...
It is the truth though
indeed, there are only two kinds of ppl...men & women...one can pretend to be the other, "feel" whatever and be semantical, however, there are two types that God|dess and Mother Nature created re: humans...nothing but scientific fact ...anything else is socio-political, psychological and emotional...
Word
yes it true
you can feel as a woman even you are a man
but you are still a man that is a FACT and if you can't accept that something is wrong with you
cause i will respect you for whatever you decide but there is only men and women
Steven Coates I was thinking the same thing 😄.
She pinching and he steadily talking 😂
Angela Basset snatching souls from day ☝🏿
If this man is really guilty of the things he's accused of off screen then that's just a shame but on screen???? He's a genius...
Angela Bassett always been fine. She sitting there looking like grace Jones lol.
My Cougar Celebrity Crush!
And Epatha Merkerson sittin there next to her lookin like Chuck Jones.
This is Phyllicia Rashad, foo 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

0:41..........the "I got by with a BS statement" look. Hahahahaha!
Makes me want to see Angela Bassett play Cleopatra
Yes she is amazing as a Shakespearean. I heard she wanted to do Anthony and cleopatra with someone on broadway but it should be a movie too.
Wow...even Lady Di gueststarred The Cosby Show
The Fourth Chairman I noticed that, too!

I watch all kind of comedy even the Arabic ones,,, However I think this scene is the funniest thing I have ever seen in my life :-)))
"There's only 2 kinds of people, men and women". -number 1 sitcom in the 80's.
Today? Show removed for intolerant hate speech
"What other people? There's only two kinds of people"
That line doesn't hold up nowadays!
Shameful, isn’t it?
It's still true.
Even back then it wasn't actually the case. But it was an understandable assessment given the times.

For those who do not know this episode: Claire thought that Cliff didn‘t read the book at all. Therefore her surprise that he knew it in detail.
