I love that skit "The Californians". I think I might be the only one that does other than the actors.

I'm sure the All-Star Game was crushed in the ratings.

SNL40 23.1 Mil (Network)
Walking Dead 12.3 Mil (Cable)
CSI 7.1 Mil (Network)
The Bachelor 6.0 Mil (Network)
NBA All Star 5.9 Mil (Cable)
Talking Dead 5.0 Mil (Cable)

SNL crushed everyone.

Nope. I always liked it. Its epicness is because of its length. If it was short it would not make sense.

Lookit, I don't think Cosby was the thing for Eddie to do simply because the entire thing is sad and not funny. But Yes, way to go Eddie Murphy- congrats for not kicking the serial rapist when he's down and then getting on stage and being too smug to do even one joke.

He has a lot of respect for Bill Cosby and has gone on record in saying that he and Pryor were big influences on his career. How Cosby in his opinion was the greatest story teller in comedy.

not to derail this happy thread, when was Cosby convicted of being a serial rapist? Eddie doesn't owe anything to Lorne Michaels or SNL. He earned his opportunity to get on that show, carried that show and branched off to become the highest (or at one time, the highest) grossing actors of all time. His legacy is all of the comedians that came after him who said that he was a big influence on why they became comedians.

Tiger wasn't convicted of being a 'player' either, but 20+ women all telling similar stories is a preponderance of evidence, buying off some of them when charges were possible, etc.. The fact that the Cos used his celebrity to exploit women undermines his accomplishments. Eddie's response to stay mum on the issue is the correct one, but defending Bill Cosby is naïve-to-flat-out-denial.

Agreed. I think it also had to do with the fact that the actors were often struggling to not lose it in the middle of that sketch.

If the condom don't fit, you must acquit!

You're defaming Cosby's character and he hasn't even had his day in court. There's no point in discussing this any further. You are free to believe what you choose to believe.

Puuuuuuuh-lease.

Ah the classic I'm not going to argue after you make your point. Cosby has had multiple days in court and he paid up and gave hush money multiple times. It's precisely 34 women and counting defaming him. TempleU and the USNavy have seen enough to revoke Cosby's titles/role. Bill Cosby drugs women and pleasures himself on helpless possibly sleeping women and it is freakin disgusting. Bill Cosby is a rapist.
