Lead

• "short lists of episode highlights." --> "short lists of series highlights."
  • Thanks.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 00:50, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
• "highlights. Highlights of this episode" repeatitive, perhaps "Clips of..."?
  • O.K.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 00:52, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

Plot

• "bathroom - not" em dash, please.
  • O.K.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 00:54, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

Passing Cast.

• I believe you are saying the Cast section passes as is.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 00:55, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

Production

• You probably should say that "as of 1987," it was one of the few sitcom episodes to show a bathroom, as while it's not common, but certainly not as rare now.
  • Thanks.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 01:02, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

Reception

• Entirely irrelevant comment on my part, I find it amazing how Falcon Crest got #2 in that week's ratings, yet it has faded so much from the public conciousness.
  • Thanks for sharing.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 13:21, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
• The Ebony reference is fine as it is, but it likely would be included in Google Books' scans of the magazine.
  • Added a google books link.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 13:20, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
• "first 81 episodes"... until the reader reaches the "Looking Back" sentence, this number is just confusing.
  • Not sure what correction you request.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 13:24, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
• "—," is improper
  • not sure why, but changed to "),"--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 13:27, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
• The whole "Looking Back" sentence needs either more punctuation, or to be split into a couple sentences. There's 35 words or numbers before the first pause via punctuation.
  • Split.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 13:30, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
• While you've linked to Looking Back in the lead, link to it here, again.
  • Done.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 13:32, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
• Does the Turner Broadcasting System call themselves that on the page you link to? It's a safe bet that they call themselves TBS.
  • I am going by the fact that the WP article uses the full name, indicating that this is the official name.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 13:33, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
    • Turner Broadcasting System is a television distribution wing of Time Warner. Turner Broadcasting System operates TBS, CNN, Cartoon Network, etc. The page you're linking to isn't for the parent company, it's for the channel TBS (U.S. TV channel). I've changed the internal link, but you need to add in the archived location, as they've nixed the page. Here is one Wayback Machine backup: https://web.archive.org/web/20121116153833/http://www.tbs.com/stories/story/0,,90529,00.html

Passing References, External links, Categories, Infobox, image license. -- Zanimum (talk) 15:10, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

• Zanimum, please revisit this nomination.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 13:34, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

• • On the condition that you reformat the reference to include a link to the Wayback Machine or another backup of the Cosby Show Quotes page, I've passed this article as GA. -- Zanimum (talk) 22:42, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
    • Fixed.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 05:35, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
