Featured review
kicking it with the boys
Fat Albert is the second African-American cartoon since the Harlem Globetrotters that aired a couple of years earlier. This is got to be Bill Cosby's best inventions ever and became a hugh success. Fat Albert is one of the most memorable cartoons by almost any race over the age of 18. The show was positive and fun to watch. It displayed comedy,adventure,messages that keep the youth going in the right direction. Any kid that lived in the ghetto can get a kick out of this show because it shows everything that goes on in the neighborhood during that time (the 70s). Fat Albert is the obese teenager that hangs out with his neighborhood buddies,and crack jokes amongst themselves. This is similar what we do today with our friends. That's the reason Fat Albert will be the best cartoon which we can relate to.
