How come these Cosby Shows are pretty much forgotten and rarely talked about?

[Antwon Mitchell]

I was at least three years old when these shows premiered in the mid 90s...but how come nobody speaks on these two forgotten Cosby shows? Hell I didn't even know these existed...I thought Bill was just A different World and The Cosby Show (1984) in terms of sitcoms...



The Cosby Mysteries (95-96)

Cosby (96-00)

I'm just curious to know why these were forgotten been reaching old black sitcoms from the 90s besides the well known ones...

I'm a 90s baby and THIS THREAD is the first time I heard of these shows


There was a Black sitcom boom in the mid to late 90s and maybe the shows in OP were sub par and got lost in the shuffle.

I watched both of them. Doug E Doug was on Cosby

They’re forgotten about because everyone was expecting them to be like the Cosby show but was real bland and got lost in the sea of good black sitcoms.

I remember the show, I remember it was boring and not funny. I figured it was show for older people and not me.

 

[LezJepzin]

I forgot about that last one

 

[Unknown Poster]

I remember all of these shows.

Cosby Mysteries had Mos Def aka Yasiin Bey's first acting role.

Cosby (96-00) was like watching Ewing in that Sonics jersey.
