Description:
One of America's most popular comedians, Bill Cosby treats his fans to a funny, satirical and heart-warming concert at Toronto's Hamilton Place Performing Arts Center.His material ranges from marriage and the unending trials of parenthood, to the side-splitting antics of the very young, and a hilarious encounter with a dentist's drill and needle.Insightful and witty, this highly entertaining film is a rare cinematic treat, filled with all the spontaneity and electricity that only a live performance can provide.

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

Rating: - As Always, Himself
I have always enjoyed the humor of Bill Cosby and wanted to see this video for quite some time.I was not disappointed!As a parent of teenagers, this video really hits the mark describing their growing years of elementary and adolescent days.I laughed so much that tears came to my eyes! My daughter enjoyed parts of it but the reality of the monologue was not lost on my husband and I - thank goodness for clean comedy!

Rating: - Bill Cosby is Still Himself, These Days.
I was three years old when Dr. Cosby gave this performance for HBO.The following year came the first season of The Cosby Show.It took me over twenty years to learn how closely connected Bill Cosby Himself was to the creation (and duration) of The Cosby Show (especially the pilot episode).For me during the 80's, it only mattered that this special didn't include Phylicia, Sabrina, Lisa, Malcolm, Tempestt or Keshia.(And of course, there wasn't Geoffrey, Deon or Raven.)
