Blind Items Revealed #2

July 7, 2014

One of the more popular shows of all-time had some behind the scenes drama which would not be allowed today. It just wouldn't happen because of the internet and TMZ and at least on television sets, the atmosphere is more business like. On movie sets, all of this still goes on. The show was #1 for lots of years. Sitcom. Really popular. The male star of the show got to be A+ list on television and has never dropped below a B. Not that great of an actor. His movies have for the most part done poorly. On the set of this show he was king though and he made it very clear to any woman who wanted a line on the show was going to have to sleep with him. He really got to like one of his co-stars and demanded more and more from her and when she finally stopped giving in to his sexual demands he had her fired and made it look like she quit. When she did leave, another actress on the show always put up with everything he did but since the show ended they have not spoken. Ever. Not a word because of the way he used her and the things he made her do. He acts like he is progressive but he was and still is a tool. He just doesn't have a platform any longer to be as rude as he once was.

Bill Cosby

I was wondering when the Cosby reveals were going to start

"Not that great of an actor."

The Emmy every year for his first three years as an actor, and the amazing performance in the movie Hickey and Boggs say otherwise.

Two words: Ghost Dad

I hope there are some real consequences for him beyond the loss of career opportunities. Unlikely, but one can still hope.

Was the replacement actress the one that played the annoying cousin?

Ay said...

The blind didn't say that there was a replacement actress but one that was already there who put up with everything. That actress is probably Phylicia Rashad who ALWAYS publically defended Cosby back in the day.

Didn't he and Phylicia do another short-lived sitcom together? They were a married couple but didn't have much money in this version.

Jonathan Andrew Sheen said...

Megan, Ghost Dad, like Leonard, Part VI, was not an acting problem. You can't shine shit, as the saying goes. Sir Laurence Olivier would have looked like a moron doing those turds.

Jonathan Andrew Sheen said...

Yes, they did, which makes me think she isn't the actress being discussed here.

I'm still not assuming Cosby's guilty -- I believe in those pesky inconveniences, like evidence, trials and verdicts -- but by the premise of this blind, how do you figure Phylicia Rashad comes back to work with him again?

Zilla3 said...

Ah, duly noted. Well, I'd say that anyone who was witness to or has knowledge of anything like what is being alleged, has a responsibility to come forward.

Zilla3 said...

They sure did.

@JAS

The actress he sexually harassed was Lisa Bonet. Phylicia obviously didn't mind it.

Frankly said...

I can't remember well, but didn't the oldest daughter leave and then come back after Bonet left??

P said...

You're talking about Sondra. I don't remember her ever leaving. I know she wasn't there the first season, but was around for the rest of the show's run.

it took forever said...

seems to me bill has a drunk girl fetish or a sleeping girl fetish, why did all the girls had to be drugged

frosty said...

All this reveal shows is that Hannibal Buress had the guts to call Cosby out publicly. Doubt that will never happen with Enty

Dani said...

I'm thinking Lisa Bonet as the actress who her fired & made it look like she quit. She NEVER EVER speaks about Bill, EVER.
