Bill junior

This is a really sweet, charming cartoon based on Bill Cosby's childhood. The animation is unique and evocative of the era. I especially love the relationship between Little Bill and his great-grandmother, whom he calls Alice the Great. A nice little family show.

First, Fat Albert. Then, Picture Pages (I know he didn't create it, but do you think of anyone else when the topic comes up?). Then, Bill Cosby creates Little Bill, and cements his legend as not only an entertainer, but and educator. Except for Fat Albert (which I recommend highly), my son has seen both of these works and also catches "The Cosby Show." Believe me, if I had to pick one entertainer that ends up my son's favorite TV star, thank goodness it's Bill Cosby. Even his bad films, like Leonard Part 6 and Ghost Dad, are pretty OK for kids as entertainment. And knowing him, there's been a positive message of some sort in both those films for kids all along that we've been missing.

Little Bill teaches kids to be kids. I think it is also a positive portrayal of Black families.

It shows a strong family bond. I don't think it is stupid at all

Unlike the commenter before me, I think Little Bill is a very nice show for toddlers and pre-schoolers. He acts just like real children do, with wild imagination. The show teaches children to be kind, and generous. And by the way, "Hello friend", is a phrase Bill Cosby's deceased son used to use all the time.

This is a great show for kids, again I say for kids. Of course to adults it may seem stupid, but it's not meant for adults it's meant for kids. It teaches children to use their imagination, to be creative, and to accept anyone. In fact my daughter and I just watched one where Little Bill's friend Monty comes to visit. Monty is in a wheelchair and this shows children that even though some one may be a little different they can still be your friend. This is something I think every one could learn from.
