It’s something I struggle with. Some bad news comes out about some public persona doing something shitty and they get cancelled. But sometimes I really struggle with giving up the things they’ve made because I like them. There are also occasions where the person has been accused of something and it doesn’t seem true to me, or I think they’re genuinely sorry and have been punished enough, and the context isn’t being considered.
What do you think? Who do you feel conflicted about enjoying?
This is going to get buried, but I miss Bill Cosby, or rather my mental model of him before all that nastiness came out.
There were signs back then.
Ugh, that was the scene I kept thinking of when it all came out
The Cosby Show is still a good classic show with a lot of humor and heart. It is tainted now though. Really creepy in retrospect that Cosby plays a doctor with exclusively female patients he sees in the basement
this was my answer was well. i haven’t seen it in a while but his “himself” special was my favorite stand up ever
His early stand-up was what ignited my love of the format. “Himself” is a masterclass. Such a shame.
Tell him I said suck MY dick
Understood. The TV show was totally hilarious.
