'''Cliff Huxtable''' is a character in the sitcom ''[[The Cosby Show]]'' portrayed by [[Bill Cosby]].

== History ==
[[Bart]] and [[Homer]] were watching the final broadcast of ''The Cosby Show'' when a screen appeared displaying Cliff and the program's title and its original run dates. Remembering the series, Homer remarked that [[Theodore Huxtable|Little Theo]] had grown up before their eyes. Bart then asked why the show was ending, and Homer explained that Bill Cosby had decided to stop producing it before its quality began to decline. Bart disagreed, saying that if he had a television show, he would keep it running for as long as possible regardless of its quality. Homer responded by expressing his approval of that attitude.<ref>"[[Three Men and a Comic Book]]"</ref>

When [[Bleeding Gums Murphy]] was hospitalized at [[Springfield General Hospital]], [[Lisa Simpson]] asked him when he had last worked. Murphy replied that it was in 1986, when he made a guest appearance on ''The Cosby Show''. In a flashback to the appearance, [[Bill Cosby]] ([[Cliff Huxtable]]) introduced Murphy to the Huxtable children—[[Rudy Huxtable|Rudy]], [[Theodore Huxtable|Theodore]], and [[Denise Huxtable|Denise]]—as "Grampa Murphy." Rudy responded that they already had three grandpas, and the children then dismissed him, saying in an indifferent tone that they all already had grandfathers. Cosby replied that Murphy was a great jazz musician, but the children remained uninterested. He then launched into a monologue explaining jazz by comparing it to commercial products such as Jell-O Pudding Pops, [[Kodak]] film, and [[New Coke]], while claiming that children were no longer interested in jazz because of rap music. Throughout the scene, Murphy himself did not speak and was shown silently holding his saxophone while Cosby carried the conversation.<ref>"[['Round Springfield]]"</ref>
