Good list but I actually believe #2 should be #1. Prior to the allegations and charges, The Cosby Show was still listed as one of the greatest comedies ever, the Greatest TV Dad, etc. afterward, it's not even mentioned on lists any more. Reruns were pulled, DVDs were pulled from websites, now it's only mentioned with the disclaimer I love The Cosby Show but.
The controversies surrounding Schneider's show has only become headline news recently, even though it's been rumored/hinted for years. And all of these shows still air in reruns without mention of pulling them or banning.

The Duck Dynasty guy suffered no loss of his free speech rights when he was initially fired from his TV show. In the USA, free speech rights are enshrined into the First Amendment of our Constitution. The Constitution mainly protects us from our government. The Duck Dynasty guy was never arrested nor threatened with arrest for his vile speech. As long as you can spew whatever vile speech you want from a street corner in the USA, your free speech rights are not violated.

Everyone thinks the tweet got Roseanne fired. It did. However she was given a short leash for the reboot. ABC had a zero tolerance policy toward her behavior. During the show’s initial run, she was a nightmare. John Goodman quit several times. She fired people on a whim. She forced her coked up and very green new husband, Tom Arnold on the show.
So when given a second chance. ABC gave her a warning and she couldn’t help herself.

Not TV show related but music related. The band Lostprophets were a huge part of my teenage years and when everything came out about lead singer Ian Watkins ) I cannot bring myself to listen to some of the songs that made up some of the best memories of my teens. I feel bad for the rest of the band for their ties to him and am glad they have been able to move on and continue to make music.

For us older people, Bill Cosby was greatly loved LONG before he was Dr. Huxtable. He broke ground as a black man in a good guy role in I Spy, he had numerous comedy specials, Fat Albert, cartoons, The Bill Cosby Show, and etc. His fall left people across generations stunned and sickened, and compounded by the fact that it was a well-known secret that nobody did a damn thing about.

I feel like I can't watch the Cosby Show anymore because of Billy Cosby. I work at my local grocery store and after Bob Saget passed away, we had a magazine cover of him that called him America's Dad. I didn't know that Cosby had the nickname until much later, and it made me realize that they gave that nickname to Saget probably because of what Cosby did to those poor women.

Amazing how everyone mentioned here suffered some kind of canceling but yet trump is still going strong despite being found liable for SA and a number of women accusing him of SA or SH. Which goes to show there’s a pick and chose on who gets canceled and who doesn’t. And then there are those falsely accused who can never get their lives back.

I'll never stop watching Cosby or Fresh Prince, but it's hard seeing two trailblazing actors go down due to their egos or in wills case Jadas
Roseanne too. My advice keeps your opinions to yourself. Whether or not you agree with her, spouting your opinions in public is just asking to get in trouble. Double for Phil.

Typical topic for philosophical essay in school. Can the work be distinguished from the person Very difficult because I am pretty sure that unknown from us are so many cases like that.
Other than that I am always surprised by the people who are unable to distinguish an actor/actress from the character they play.

I’m old enough to remember when Dan Schneider was on Head of the Class, The Cosby Show was the best family dynamic on television, when Ellen was sort of funny during her stand-up routine, and when That 70’s Show was pure nostalgia and escapism. How the times have changed. Not for the better.

Allison Mack was also briefly married to Nicki Clyne from _Battlestar Galactica_ who was also in the cult. I remember being gutted when Cally was killed off. Now, it fills me with glee. Mack also recruited Kristin Kreuk, but thankfully she had the sense to get out of it.

Charlie Sheen was the better star then Ashton Kutcher and the show would've been better off if they ended once Charlie left instead of continuing as long as it did! Honestly it wasn't a bad show it just was too different

Jeff Garlin is living proof that you shouldn't bite the hand that feeds you. I felt sorry for his costars, who had to tolerate his erratic behaviour. The CGI for Murray really wasn't convincing at all.

I still don’t believe Nickelodeon when they insisted that Zoey 101 didn’t end because of Jamie Lynns teenage pregnancy. I don’t even think kids who watched the show at the time believe that.

Sometimes I can tolerate Smallville without being reminded of Allison Mack's misdeeds.
Chloe Sullivan remains a good person within DC Comics. Nothing will change my mind about that.

I will never be able to rewatch shows like Zoey 101 and Drake and Josh again after watching Quiet on Set. I brew up with the live action Nickelodeon shows, so it was a huge kick to my childhood

Well I know Zoe 101 ended because she got pregnant, I still wish they had just done hiatus for maybe a year and a half and then did at least a couple more seasons, oh well wishful thinking

Schneider can make as many excuses and/or play the blame game all he wants, But he has no one to blame but himself for ruining the legacies is of the his own shows, And he knows it.
