The Cosby Show: Season 5

Classic show

I was happy with my order of season 5 of The Cosby Show. No scratches and pretty much brand new although sold as used. It did not arrive sealed like my other orders of The Cosby Show DVDs.

My husband and I were newly married back in 1984 when this series first aired. Thursday nights were definitely the "must see" TV people talk about primarily due to this show. We rarely missed an episode and when we weren't going to be home, we recorded it on our VCR (remember those?). Fast forward many years and with a daughter added to our family, we bought these in 2007 and watched the first three seasons again. Earlier this year, we pulled out season 1 and laughed our way through it and are continuing on through the rest of the seasons. My daughter is 17, my husband 55, and I am 50 -- a wide range of ages and yet all of us are laughing from beginning to end and appreciating what a comic genius Bill Cosby is. The cast is incredible, the characters full of quirks and personality, the writing is stupendous. If you haven't seen these before and are looking for good, clean fun give them a try. If you saw these years ago, give them another go since this is definitely a series that has stood the test of time.

"DON'T PUT THOSE TISSUES BACK IN THE BOX!!!" SOOOO FUNNY!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Great show

My favorite show hands down!! I love this show and always will!

Hee we are at the fifth Cosby Show go-round. And, if the viewing audience thought things changed the year before, this season brought changes - to the changes. Lisa Bonet has left the cast of A Different World, and her character, Denise Huxtable struggles with dead end jobs and ends up hopping a plane to Africa as a photographer's assistant. (All this to allow her to give birth to her daugher with Lenny Kravitz, Zoe below the radar.) Also, Theo starts his college degree at NYU but neglects to turn in his dorm fee. But, why did I mention that first? The biggest change of all is the arrival of the next generation. At the season's opening, Sondra is nine months pregnant. Not with one child, as everyone thought, but with TWINS, Winnie and Nelson. (Only Sondra, Elvin and their doctor know this one piece of information prior to the birth.) Those two babies bring plenty of fun, drama and surrealistic comedy to the 5th season of The Cosby Show. [Also of note is the re-appearance of Clarice Taylor as Grandma Anna Huxtable; she didn't appear once in Season 4, even though we see plenty of Earl Hyman as Grandpa Russell.]

I have seasons 3,5,6 & 7 so far and I think this one is the best yet! I love them all, but this one is by far the funniest! Bill is wonderful and I just roar when Phylicia Rashad gets mad at the kids. I can relate, I have 3 kids! Besides being a joy for me to watch this is also fun for the kids and I don't have to worry about any inappropriate scenes. I highly recommend The Cosby show to adults and children, you'll love it!
