Little Bill

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

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.

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.

ADORABLE!! INTELLIGENT!!! FUNNY!!! My 2 year old adores it and I do as well. First of all... the artwork (animation) is incredible. Fabrics literally come to life! The characters are compassionate, loving, and teach children and adults alike the values of family, friendship, education and creativity. The themes are beautifully written and the lessons learned are invaluable. What a lucky boy Little Bill is to have such a wonderful family. We also own all his books and my son loves them equally. I recommend this series and the books to children and adults alike. Thank you Mr. Cosby and all involved in this wonderful show!

A wonderful, realistic depiction of a family living in the city, this show takes it's time with human interactions in a way that is refreshing and enjoyable. There seems to be no end of realistic topics that are covered. I highly recommend it. It is the best thing I have watched with children in years.

Little Bill's older sister and bother are great kids; but they lose their patience, get tired and grouchy, snip at each other while the mother patiently but firmly guides their actions, sometimes leaving decisions to the three of them to work out. Little Bill's friends in school reflect the diversity of the city while the teacher's role reflects the challenges and rewards of the job.
