Bill Cosby is a comedian and TV show host.
History
Bill Cosby hosted the TV program Kids Say the Darnedest Things, where he used the kids' remarks as a springboard to doing his own standup comedy routines. Cosby and his family later auditioned to appear in The 1895 Challenge, a reality show where the cast would live as though the year was 1895. However, they lost out to the Simpson family. Cosby is also the author of the book Fatherhood, a copy of which was given to Homer by the National Fatherhood Institute. Cosby also has his own sitcom, The Cosby Show, on which Bleeding Gums Murphy made a guest appearance.
