Bill Cosby was one of the most beloved entertainers of recent times.
That all came crashing down when he was accused of rape, drug-facilitated sexual assault, and more by over 60 women.
Horrific story after horrific story with a similar modus operandi every time.
Cosby was convicted on three counts of aggravated indecent assault in April 2018 and sentenced to three to 10 years in state prison.
However, that conviction was thrown out last June due to a technicality, not because Cosby was found to be innocent.
Cosby has never said sorry and you can rest assured he never will, so it’s high time a docuseries rolled around to shine a light on his atrocities.
Showtime’s We Need to Talk About Cosby seeks to do just that, reports Variety:
Cosby, the renowned comedian, actor, philanthropist and African American icon, who for decades was revered as ‘America’s Dad,’ has gained infamy as a criminal defendant in a sexual-assault prosecution.
The series explores the complex story of Cosby’s life and work, weighing his actions against his indisputable global influence through interviews with comedians, cultural commentators, journalists and women who share their most personal, harrowing encounters with Cosby.
Through archival footage, Cosby reveals who he may have been all along — the antithesis of the principled, public figure who became a hero, not only to African American people but to all people
Here’s the official trailer:
The four-part docuseries will screen at the Sundance Film Festival this weekend, and debut on Showtime on January 30.
Cosby may never spend another day behind bars but his legacy is rightfully in tatters.
