Bill Cosby, 76, will have his first full-length stand up program in over in 30 years aired on TV Land this Sunday, December 1st. The show is titled, “Bill Cosby: Far From Finished,” and according to a the press release, in his typical form, Coby’s gives his hilarious point of view on topics he knows well, such as relationships, marriage and of course, children.

The network announced that to get fans excited for this highly anticipated event, TV Land will air a marathon of “The Cosby Show” featuring Cosby’s own top ten favorite episodes beginning at 5 p.m. ET/PT, also on December 1st.

Cosby’s special, which first aired on Comedy Central, was filmed at the Cerritos Performing Arts Center in Los Angeles this summer with Robert Townsend (The “Meteor Man”) directing.

For those unfamiliar with “The Cosby Show,” it was an Emmy award-winning sitcom that revolves around the Huxtable family and their daily life adventures. Every episode is full of Cosby’s ingenious storytelling as he guides through day-to-day life as a father.

Here’s a quick look at the trailer promoting the comedy special:

 

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
