Excerpt:
Legendary funnyman Bill Cosby is down with Katie Couric's plan for combating Islamophobia in America: a Muslim "Cosby Show."
"I like her idea," The Cos told The Track. "I think you could very well teach and people could understand. I do feel that whenever I have gotten to meet people who are coming from different countries that may have been Muslim, I do know that they say they love 'The Cosby Show.' And then they ask me, 'You know why? Because it's about family.' "
Couric floated the idea on her webcast, suggesting that someone create a sitcom that follows an American Muslim family the way Cosby's '80s sitcom about Dr. Heathcliff Huxtable and his family chronicled upwardly mobile African-Americans.
