Bill Cosby and his three friends

[Ziffel]

Remember this very enjoyable sketch with Bill Cosby and four children?
He was sitting down with 4 boys standing behind him (except one was hiding behind the middle one). He says to the viewers, "Hi, I'm sitting here with my 3 friends." They say, "Four." He turns back to count , "1,2,3". Then when he turns around they again say, "Four". After they debate 3 vs. 4 for a little bit, Bill again turns his head and counts out, "1,2,3". They say "Four" as he turns back around. Then they giggle. Bill slyly sneaks around behind them and grabs the fourth boy as he laughs loudly. I remember the rest going like this:

Bill: So there really are 4 here.
boys: No.
Bill: No? What do you mean no?
boys: You!
Bill: Me? What about me?
boys: Five.
Bill: Five? Five what?
boys: People.
Bill: People?
boys: Yeah.
Bill: Oh, so there's five of us here?
boys: Yeah.
Bill: And there's no one else here?
boys: No.
Bill: Just us?
boys: Yeah.
Bill: Okay, I'm standing here with my three friends.
boys: FOUR!!!
Bill: (smiling) Oh that's right there is four isn't there.

Bill Cosby always great with children! I found "Kids say the darndest things" with him a few years ago to be quite fun and amusing too.

Cosby on Sesame Street

Bill Cosby also did another skit that day discussing with kids about over and under. He describes his friend driving his car (using hand gestures) over and under, but he gets confused, and the kids keep trying to correct him. The kids are giggling so much at Bill's shenanigans, this clip is very fun to watch.

Then Bill and his "double" recite the alphabet and count to 20.

And you gotta love his outfit. The brown bell bottoms, the yellow shirt, the leather vest, the rimless glasses and the afro out to HERE- it's Cosby at his quintessential grooviest, baby!
