Would The Cosby Show still....

Be a number one hit if it was about a working class family.
I read somewhere that it was supposed to be about a working class family instead of the iteration of the rich family that was on screen

Yes. I don’t think Cosby being a doctor was the draw.

I have to disagree I don't think mainstream audiences wanted to see a working class black family for some reason

Think of Roc and there you have it...

Great show but not thought of instantly like the aforementioned.

not with white people, them being upper class coogi sweater wearing definitely played a part in the popularity.

i would actually like to see Cosby play a working class father though. it would be interesting.

Can’t hate on the Cosby show. Affluent black family, hbcu constantly repped, black doctor and lawyer.

I’m old, so I understand the desire to see proud, successful black representations on tv.

Every sitcom borrowed some element from The Cosby Show in some form or fashion. Modern Family is basically white Cosby Show
