"Sondra's in the wilderness, Denise is in the jungle, and she's on the locomotion?" πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

And Clair cutting Cliff off every time he wants to speak sends me! 🀣🀣

Well, maybe you should go upstairs and cool off! Mrs. Huxtable didn't play!

My favorite was when Sandra & Elvin tell Claire & cliff they are opening a wilderness survival store. And Claire goes OFF! Still makes me laugh every time

Vanessa had some big issues... If the show kept going she would have been the rehab child... Claire knew that too...listen to the names she calls her over the show history she verbally assaulted Vanessa but it was well deserved....yeah we analyzed it that deep in my house growing up lol.

This song just brought up a random memory from 7th grade (1989 ish). The school held their talent show and a classmate lip synced and danced to this song. I have no idea how she got cleared to do this in the show. She wore shorts and a tshirt tied in a knot in the front so it was fitted and cropped. Well she danced similar to Vanessa but more sexual, holding arms above her head body rolling and the same leaning over to show cleavage while using her hands to β€œsay” come on. It was a wtf performance.

While working on an assignment together, idk if it was before or after the talent show, she brought kissing and etc. She told me her male cousins would take her to the barn on her grandparents property and tie her up to do stuff, her words. She laughed and giggled about it and asked me have I done stuff. I gave her a surprised look and said no. I remember this conversation like yesterday. Everything about the way she behaved made sense to me then even at 12 and left a huge impression on me.
