Showtime has unveiled the official trailer for W. Kamau Bell‘s new four-part documentary series, We Need To Talk About Cosby. And it’s every bit as damning as you’d expect.

The trailer opens with actress Eden Tirl, one of more than 60 women who have come forward with allegations of sexual assault and misconduct against the comedian, demanding Bell keep her testimony unedited. “You can’t do what he did unless you have other people supporting what you’re doing,” Tirl says. Throughout the remaining two minutes of the trailer, journalists, entertainers, and media professionals unpack their personal relationships with a once-beloved, now disgraced, comedy icon, and reevaluate Cosby’s legacy in the wake of his 2018 conviction and sentencing to three-to-ten years in prison at 81-years-old for the 2004 assault of Andrea Constand.

In an op-ed for TIME that accompanied the premiere of the documentary’s trailer, Bell admits his reluctance to grapple with Cosby’s history of drugging and raping women. “This is a third-rail conversation for Black folks. Whether you believe the women, whether you think Cosby is (or ever was) a hero, there are too many land mines. This is combined with the fact that no matter what you think about Cosby, Black folks in the U.S. are always living under a deficit of role models and representation,” Bell writes. “Consider all that alongside the fact that America has a well-earned reputation for criminalizing and killing innocent Black men. There is no perceived gain in taking a Black man down,” Bell adds.

Watch the official trailer for We Need to Talk About Cosby below. Tune into Showtime on January 30th for the premiere of part one of the series.

 
If we only knew the full deviant sexual history of all of America"s greatest heroes and public figures...

There would be hardly anyone left standing. Men or women. If you got the power to have anybody you want, most people are gonna use it. The other person is with them because of who that person is. They could get sex or good company from anyone but those other people aren't famous or powerful/rich.


If Kamau Bell wants to do a documentary about abuse of power as it relates to sexual harassment I'll support that. Don't frame it as a Black Male issue though. Who has the majority of powerful positions in this country? To focus on a handful (or one) Black males is disingenuous.

It's an issue of power, not race and maybe not even gender. We have seen powerful women harass subordinate men/women as well.

So Bell gives all these compelling reasons for not wanting to do it but does it any way?...they needed a show to shit on Cosby and it needed a Black face to run it...Bell didn't want that money train to pass him by... and Cosby is not untouchable but after the way the media ran to support that bogus MJ documentary, one wonders what the true motivation is
 
Interesting.
A "documentary" made by a Black, high profile Cosby critic, featuring some of Cosby's harshest high profile Black critics.
The trailer alone reads like a "Who's, who" of Black progressives, elites and entertainers who have openly showed their distain for Cosby.

And just like the Michael Jackson "Neverland" documentary, I'm sure Bell will win plenty of awards at Sundance... :dunno:
Yeah, this will be a BIG hit with The Black Community.... :rolleyes:

I don't trust it. Especially from people who subscribe to the notion that "Black males are the White people of gay whatever"

In those days, women knew the cost to get put on. Sometimes it worked out, other times it didn't. No thanks on the buyer's remorse testimony from a bunch of hags, including some who barely even met Cosby but noticed he looked in their direction :roflmao2:

FOH :lol:

Thanks, but no thanks
 
Well they can't get him in the legal system so I guess they are going to try him in the court of public opinion meanwhile lets forget about Woody Allen, Roman Polanski, Bill Clinton and all these other muthafuckas out there. There's a whole host of people they could investigate from Jeffrey Epstein's island starting with Bill Gate's but hey let's not talk about that.

That part. Which is coming out of the would work 30 years later talking about he raped me. Anybody who didn't jump out of the woodwork in 1984 when The Cosby Show debuted, fuck them. They waited fucking 30 years after that

Back in the day they had sex on drugs. They took drugs and then fucked.

I saw some of those interviews with a woman said that he did the shit in front of them. He didn't sneak should in their drinks he put it in their drinks and they saw it and they knew it and they fuck them knowing he was married, so fuck all those bitches

Plus some of those bitches were proven to be lying. Like Beverly Johnson
 
Cosby may have been a sexual deviant and may have done some inappropriate things, but I do not believe he raped anyone. Drug fueled sex was the culture of the time. Fuck all them social climbing hos of the 70s, and 80s and fuck these liberal media personality sellouts who want to continue to portray those hos as victims.
 
Man my blackness wouldn't allow me to do some shit like this. Behind closed doors its certain shit we may say but damning a black person in this fashion is against code UNLESS you're damning Candace Owens cuz....well....you know.......fuck dat bitch.
 
I mean....Woody Allen and Roman polanski was right there, but lets get Cosby.....fuck this dude..

But they did a doc on Woody. And that shit was FUCKED UP. Allen vs Farrow was fucking disgusting (docuseries on HBOMax). It's over for dude. Actors/Actresses (white, bc his ass aint never cast no Black people) used to line up to work for him knowing the film would get nominated for all kinds of shit. Now those same actors and especially actresses have gone on the record saying they should've never done it, and some have even donated the money they made to charities. Woody Allen is done. And rightfully so. Never liked his bitch ass.

And Polanski can't come back to the states EVER. France refuses to extradite him because he's a citizen (dual citizens with Poland too) and they don't extradite their own citizens. Your point definitely stands with him because his bitch ass is still making films. He has a movie in pre-production right now that is gonna be released and distributed in Europe. No A list, or even C list actors are working with him but he's still making films, getting them funded and distributed. Sick fuck.

And there has been plenty of Cosby pieces as well already, Why add to the pile and being the blackface of this "Take down Cosby" movement?

If none of the materials that rose kept him in prison, why try to recreate what didn't work in the first place?
