WGN Remembers 1984 Debut of 'The Cosby Show'

-- Twenty-five years ago, America welcomed The Cosby Show and the Huxtable family into their homes. Sunday, September 20, 2009 marks the 25th anniversary of The Cosby Show and to celebrate the milestone (to the day), WGN America will be airing a series of tributes to The Cosby Show including a rebroadcast of the original NBC Thursday night lineup as it aired on September 20th 1984 (the day The Cosby Show debuted).

"As we have seen with the success of WGN America's current Sunday lineup, "Outta Site Retro Night," our viewers love nostalgia and to recreate the programming of 1984 allows us to offer viewers a chance to re-live a history-making lineup," said Sean Compton, SVP of Programming and Entertainment, Tribune Broadcasting. "The strength of this 1984 night brought comedy back to primetime and forever changed the way families watched television."
