I have seen very few episodes of Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids because i bowled in a league when the show aired but in the shows I saw, it was an excellent blend of entertainment and education. Bill Cosby was a true genius behind the show as creator, host and voice of several characters, including the main title character. Not only did the show have a long run on Saturday mornings, it also helped Cosby earn his doctorate in education. That's why viewers saw the credit on his next big hit The Cosby Show William H. Cosby Jr. Ed.d.
Another key to the show's success was that the characters were based on real-life friends and relatives of Cosby from his days growing up in Philadelphia. It showed a lot of realism and helped viewers learn about important subjects such as health, TV addiction and respect for authority. Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids was one of TV's best cartoons of all time. Hey hey hey!
