Fat Albert and the Cosby kids aired from 1972 to 1984 and enjoyed one of the longest and most successful runs in Saturday morning cartoon history. Live action bumpers featuring Bill Cosby were set around animated episodes of Fat Albert and the Cosby kids, a series about a group of urban adolescents growing up in a Philadelphia neighborhood. The show was based on Cosby's 60's stand up comedy monologues about his childhood. The episodes revolved around the daily life lessons learned by Fat Albert and his friends. Topics ranged from social issues to personal introspection and were blended with humor and music. Among the many great characters that inhabited Fat Albert's world were Rudy, Mushmouth, Donald, Bill, Weird Harold and Russell. A special collection of these historic episodes were compiled into one box set...The Ultimate Fat Albert 4 Disc Set. This unique piece of memorabilia is a collector's item in which many generations will enjoy.

Hey Hey Hey! What can I say, this DVD collection brings me back to my childhood days!
This is a good collection of episodes from the F.A. series. My 8yr old likes them and there is a lesson learned with every episode. Some slight adult oriented humor but nothing damaging to young children. That's my opinion, others may disagree.

The way entertainment was meant to be a learning and fun to watch.
The opening dialogue of Bill's before each episode said it all... "you just might learn something", to bad he did not follow his own advice about how to treat others. Great series for both entertainment and educational value.

Looks like a bootleg
The DVDs look as if they are bootleg. The clarity is not as expected for a quality product.I have a DVD set of Jackson 5 cartoons that looks like the quality of the cartoons when I was a child. When Bill Cosby comes on at the beginning of the cartoon, the image is not crystal clear. The cartoons themselves go in and out as far as clarity. At the onset of the cartoon, the clarity is not good. Not pleased with this product. Most used products that I get from Amazon are good.I will have now have to buy a set that is new vs used.

Love Cosby's voice in these videos.
This was an all time favorite cartoon for me and my cousin growing up. We loved to watch this cartoons and so I purchased it for my grandson. He loves them as well and so does my son. Great entertainment and my 4 year old grandson runs around says Hey, Hey, Hey, ! One of his favorite DVD's.

Hours of Old Skool Fun
Bill Cosby is a genius!!! These cartoons are timeless and have messages that transcend from back then to today. Messages on being a good friend, peer pressure, saying no to drugs, lying, being aware of strangers, etc. The list goes on and one. I watched Fat Alber as a kid and loved every episode!! Take your kids back to a time where cartoons were clean, pure, and fun to watch!!! A must for your DVD library.

a great watch!
I mean, yeah, it's the sme cartoon you've been watching for 40 years, no surprises. The real treat is watching Bill Cosby's monologue between segments, given what we've been told here lately, there's a lot of jokes to be made there ! But yeah, a great watch !
