  He ruined the entire show for me. Can’t get the same joy from it. Separating art from the person? More like separating hypocrisy from the lessons. I just don’t have any desire to put that much effort.
context: I’m typically about separating art from artist but the dude played the lead in a show about morality and family values. 
  Harder to separate through that degree if hypocrisy and disgusting behavior. >
  
  I mean that's your call OP. I feel the same way about Micheal Jackson music. 
  Now where I draw the line is Chris Benoit. If you haven't heard of the guy he was a pro wrestler that murdered his family then himself. Kids and all. Loved the guy's work. Can't look at the dude anymore. Skeeves me out on a spiritual level. >
  
  I don’t even want to look at Bill Cosby ever again. >
  
  Its hard to separate art from artist in this particular case, so I dunno about that. >
  
  Sure, you can go ahead and continue enjoying The Cosby Show if you want to. But let's be real here: it's not like the show is going to magically become less problematic just because you choose to ignore the fact that its creator was a convicted sexual predator.
  He was accused of drugging and sexually assaulting multiple women. That's not something we can just sweep under the rug and pretend it didn't happen.
  We can't just separate the art from the artist, especially when the artist's actions have had such a profound impact on real people's lives. It's fine if you still want to watch and enjoy The Cosby Show, but it's also important to acknowledge the harm that Bill Cosby has caused and to not downplay or dismiss it.
  Furthermore, it's not fair to the victims of Cosby's crimes to act like they don't matter or to pretend that their experiences are insignificant just because we happen to enjoy a TV show. So while it may be tempting to try and separate the man from his work, it's important to remember that his actions have real consequences and cannot be ignored. >

  We can. Someone enjoying the show does not automatically downplay or dismiss what happened to the victims, and you're wrong to assume that. I've seen your banal rant a million times, and it isn't grounded in reality, but in a misguided sense of self-righteousness. You think some magical postive power is being dispersed in the world, because people choose not to watch a show. Come back to reality. >
  
  In my head I want to agree with you. I loved the show and it’s such a cultural piece for black America, but he’s the worst. 
  I don’t believe in separation art from the artist which means The Cosby Show. That show helped him in ruining the lives of so many women. >
  
  How to drug people into sex is such a great lesson.
  "Touching" indeed.  So funny - especially the part with the children. >
  
  There's something to be said about separating the art from the artist.
  But The Cosby Show is not art. >
  
  Can't do it.  I can't watch House of Cards either. >
  
  Enjoyed? I WAS a Cosby fan. Can't anymore. Truth be told everyone should do a deep dive into the history of everyone they idolize/whose media they consume. Saying NO to Cosby but YES to Zepplin makes no sense. You'll be shocked at how many people who we as a society have given a pass to. I would go so far as to say that if you were rich and famous at any point save for the last 5 years or so you've likely done some terrible shit. >
  
  Wait zepplin??? >
  
  Underage groupies >
