DVD: The Bill Cosby Show - Season One due Aug. 22

Step aside Cliff Huxtable--This is Cosby's first solo TV series, starring as high school teacher Cliff Kincaid and grooving to a great Quincy Jones soundtrack.

The Bill Cosby Show: Season One, Cosby's Emmy-nominated first situation comedy (featuring 26 fully restored uncut episodes from the 1969-70 season), is a fresh mix of intelligent character studies and real-life situations, seamlessly infused with his trademark sense of humor and positive outlook.

Chet Kincaid (Cosby) is a gym teacher at an urban high school in Los Angeles, an all-around good guy and an inspiration to his friends, family and students. Chet's good heart gets him into tons of predicaments, such as losing a one-on-one basketball game to a student he considered too short to make the team, his accidental involvement in a domestic dispute when he answers a pay phone and going on a date in a borrowed garbage truck.

Includes music by Quincy Jones and guest appearances by:
* Academy Award-winner Lou Gossett Jr. (An Officer And A Gentleman)
* Henry Fonda (On Golden Pond)
* Cicely Tyson ("Roots")
* Elsa Lanchester (Bride Of Frankenstein)
* Wally Cox ("Mr. Peepers")
* And many others


You can pre-order the set now from Amazon.
