Amazon.com After I Spy and before The Cosby Show, Bill Cosby left his own inimitable mark on the arena of stand-up comedy in this live concert showcasing his down-to-earth observations on the rigors and joys of family life. Cosby, using only a microphone and a chair, discusses his take on raising kids and the illogical nature of children and the futility of trying to argue with a child that in the end may be smarter than you. Notable highlights include Cosby's ruminations on the meaning of the all-purpose phrase "I don't know" to kids, and Cosby describing the effect raising children has on his wife Camille's mental state and the pitch of her voice. Containing the basis for the humor of his long-running situation comedy, Bill Cosby: Himself is a polished, occasionally insightful, and frequently hilarious night of comedy from one of the longtime masters of the form. --Robert Lane
Product Description ONE OF THE LONGTIME MASTERS OF STAND-UP COMEDY, BILL COSBY TREATS HIS FANS TO THIS FUNNY, SATIRICAL & HEARTWARMING LIVE CONCERT FROM CANADA.

Pure Genius!! August 17, 2010 Alain Jose Gomez (Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic) I saw this movie for the first time some 20 years ago and have been a fan of Cosby since then. I went to see him last year in Vegas and it was amazing, so as soon as I found a Disc version of this movie, I bought it inmediately. I laughed as hard as it was the first time. Cosby touches an array of normal life situations that are as current today as they were all those years ago. Tha sketches about the dentist, the weekend and most of all the parents/kids situation are for the ages.
My favorite part is about the grandparents so sweet and giving to the grand children as they never were with us: "my father come to my house giving money to my children and I thing that is not my father, that's just and old man trying to get into heaven!!! Thats the same man who, when I asked for 50 cents, told me the story of his life, and he never told a happy story..." Who cannot relate to that?
Contrary to most comedians of today, Cosby doesnt say a bad word or a sex situation and still have you, crying out of laughter. You wont be disapointed!!
Classic Cosby August 4, 2010 D.Lum By the time I got to the end of the DVD my cheeks hurt from laughing.
Excellent June 22, 2010 S. Harden (COLORADO SPRINGS, CO, US) My experience w/ this vendor was excellent. Quick turn-around time, and the product was perfect. Thank you so much for making internet shopping safe & reliable!
great for mothers day May 27, 2010 L. Ingram (California) I got everyone around (my kids, their husbands,etc) and watched Bill on Mother's day. It is perfect!!! We had a blast! Amazing that it is many years ago that he made this yet it is perfect for now too. No mention of "cell phones" or "ipods" but still a great family must see.
Bad Quality April 1, 2010 J. Hanna (Sydney. Australia) The movie itself is great. Very funny. I saw it years ago and have been looking for it for a while. The only thing I have to say is the quality is very poor. The sound and picture was out of sync. By the end of the dvd it was hard to watch because of this. I thought I was paying for a brand new DVD, but obviously this was only a copy and I was very dissapointed. Sorry, but wouldn't buy another DVD here.
