My favorites were: Bill loses the school's only needle valve for pumping up the school's basketballs, and tries to order another. Bill needs a vehicle for a date. He gets one - but it turns out to be a friend's garbage truck! In one scene Bill accidentally activates the pickup box and almost smashes a Cobra (Bill's?) parked in front of the truck. Question for anyone out there: A lot of Cosby websites dismiss this show as a ratings loser. My memory is that it was usually around 16-18th in the ratings, but that Bill was going through one of his 'difficult periods' at the time, and basically cancelled the show himself. Anyone have same/different memories or sources of fact?
