The Cosby Show centers around the lives of the Huxtable family in New York’s Brooklyn Heights. The comedy reflects the increasing ways in which families persevere to balance their professional and personal lives and underscores the increasing accomplishments of American families in the 1980s. Heathcliff Huxtable (Bill Cosby) is a successful obstetrician with his own practice in the family’s brownstone. His strong-willed wife and college sweetheart, Clair (Phylicia Rashad) works as a legal aid attorney. Throughout the show’s eight-year run, viewers laughed and rejoiced as the Huxtable children grew up, went to college, got married and produced grandchildren (Nick at Nite).
