I am not one who usually complains about being overly PC, because that charge is usually thrown out by conservatives and libertarians to shut down criticism of their own wacky ideas rather than engage in a discussion.

But The Bill Cosby Show aired from September 1969 - March 1971 and Malcolm-Jamal Warner wasn’t born until August 1970. I’m presuming The Cosby Show is what we’re referencing here.

That would be amazing!!

This deserves so very much love!

Seconded.

Counterpoint: No it doesn’t.
