‘The Cosby Show’ reruns from Bounce TV following Bill Cosby’s guilty verdict
Shortly after disgraced comedian Bill Cosby was found guilty of three counts of aggravated indecent assault against Andrea Constand, Bounce TV moved to remove repeats of his classic 1980s sitcom The Cosby Show.
“Effective immediately, Bounce is removing The Cosby Show from our schedule,” the digital network, owned by Katz Broadcasting, said in a statement.
Bounce TV, which airs a mix of original and acquired programming aimed at African-American audiences, has aired The Cosby Show since 2016. The sitcom, once popular on broadcast stations and networks cable as an evergreen syndicated show, began to disappear from the airwaves when the current wave of sexual assault allegations against the TV star began in 2015. He is now facing sentencing. up to 30 years in prison. The film is still available to stream on Amazon. It’s unclear whether the SVOD platform will remove it from its product line.
