A Thought On How Great The Cosby Show Is:

What other sitcom could have 18 minutes of a story, and then round out the last 5 minutes just showing dancing?

Absolutely nothing happens.....Denise's friends come over after their parents wouldn't let them sleep on the street for concert tickets, they move furniture in the living room, and dance, then Cliff & Clair's friends show up and show how the old people dance.....then everyone dances together and the credits roll.

I mean.....the Cosby Show was like this, and that is only ONE of the reasons it's one of the best ever made. There were many episodes that would just end with something non-traditional. I remember one episode that was just normal, and then ended with the family watching Martin Luther King Jr.'s 'Dream' speech on TV. For like 5 minutes it showed their faces only....silent....while the speech could be heard.

Classic.
