The Cosby Show is a hit 1980s television sitcom about the Huxtables, a normal, wealthy and quintessentially American family -- who happens to be African-American. Based on the comedy of Bill Cosby, and depicting a well-to-do African-American family with parents who are professional - yet very down to earth, The Cosby Show changed the way African-Americans are portrayed on network televison. Using slightly absurd situations from everyday life, The Cosby Show turned NBC's Thursday night line-up into the #1 destination for television viewers.
