(Just so you all know, I wrote this before I heard of the rape allegations against Cosby.*)
I keep hearing there will be a new Bill Cosby TV show, but that they’re not sure about what it will be yet. Well, then how about this: The Cosby Cosplay Show? Cosplay is one of the biggest things of the present, and The Cosby Show is one of the biggest things of the recent past, so if we combine them together, how can it miss?

Each episode of The Cosby Cosplay Show would have the cast dress up as characters from different anime, comic book, sci-fi, horror, etc., stories, and they’d have a story with some moral, like in The Cosby Show. One week he could be J. Jonah Jameson in a Spider-Man story about how with great power comes great responsibility, the next he could be Dr. Van Helsing helping his daughters deal with a particularly aggressive and manipulative suitor (Dracula), and then he could be Dr. Waldman in a Frankenstein story about how man should not meddle in God’s domain or whatever, after which he could be Jor-El in a Superman story about bullying, and then he could be Darth Vader punishing his rebellious children, etc. There are so many fictional characters nowadays, and so many built-in morality tales, and so many rabid fans, the show could run forever!
It’ll have something for everyone! Who wouldn’t want to watch The Cosby Cosplay Show? (Oh, really? Nobody would watch it? Oh, well.)
This is Cosplay, for those who are unfamiliar:

* You know, there's a movie called The Horrible Dr. Hichcock where a mad 19th Century doctor injects his wives with anesthesia to knock them out before sex because he really wants to engage in necrophilia. And since that sounds so familiar considering the allegations, maybe the new Cosby show could be called: The Horrible Dr. Huxstable, and it could have his patients accuse him of sexual assault, and each week we would learn a little bit more about sexual assault survivors and the law concerning these kinds of crimes.
