    "Cosby settles suit with Pickering woman - Comedian accused of sex assault, drugging. Accuser went to police but charges never laid"
    More here

    Bill Cosby, the old "funny" man is probably the last person I personally would of expected to be landed in this sort of scandal! And its not just one woman, apparently twelve are saying he assaulted them...

    Seems there was insufficient evidence to charge him, though I'm suspicious of things settled out of court anyway...either way, I don't think I'll ever view Bill Cosby in the same light again!

    I've always found him to not only be one of the un-funniest people around, but rather creepy. Doesn't surprise me at all.

    Never found him funny himself, but for some reason people doing impressions of him crack me up completely.

    Funniest one was the Simpsons skit on 'Kids say the funniest things' - "what's that you say? Pokemon?...With the pokey and the mon...and the pokey".

    Very unfunny comedian. It's always the squeaky clean ones in life that you have to watch out for.

    Are you calling Niall Toibin a deviant?

    An out of court settlement is no indication of guilt, in any way.

    I could never figure out why he was considered such a good comedian - I always thought he was pure rubbish.

    Oh and the cosby mysteries - don't get me started. :mad:

    The family guy one was better: "I thought this was called 'Kids say the funniest things', not 'old black comedians never shut the hell up'" :D
