Cosby Show Reruns Are Gone From Bounce TV Effectively Immediately Following Guilty Cosby Verdict

Today, a jury determined that Bill Cosby is guilty on all counts in the retrial of sexual assault claims by Andrea Constand.

There has been plenty of fallout for the former comedy legend since the heat of rape allegations arose in the last couple of years, but there is plenty more to come. Today, Bounce TV, a network that had reruns of The Cosby Show as part of their daytime schedule, is yanking the show that brought Cosby to the level of fame where he was able to safely commit his heinous crimes.

Cosby awaits sentencing, but there are still dozens of accusers he has yet to officially deal with. Once called “America’s Dad”, Cosby’s legacy undoubtedly will be looked back on as a “megalomaniac rapist”.

While it should come as little surprise that some proof of the rape and sexual assault allegations committed by Bill Cosby has finally found the light of the Internet, it’s surprising that we forgot that Cosby had a sitcom in the 90s.

Yes, there was the classic Cosby Show that propelled Bill Cosby from the revered stand-up comedian that he was to a full-fledged star.

Then, from 1996 to 2000, an era ruled by the primetime multi-cam sitcom such as Friends, Seinfeld, Will & Grace, and more, there was Cosby, which, despite awards nominations and one Emmy win, never gets brought up when revisiting the 90s that this generation seems, for now, to love so much. With that in mind, who knows what that NBC show that Cosby was developing before he started taking real heat for those rape allegations would have been like.

Reruns of the show were running on Bounce TV and, in light of the deposition where Bill Cosby admitted to buying quaaludes to have sex with women, have now ceased.

We won’t be surprised to see if a bunch of retailers start pulling his albums/specials either.
