NBC to 'never' work with Bill Cosby again

NBC Entertainment Chairman Bob Greenblatt has announced that it's safe to say that the network will never do a project with Bill Cosby again in the wake of multiple allegations of sexual assault against him.

Greenblatt explained that the network decided to drop its comedy in development with the 77-year-old actor so late because it didn't seem to be the kind of thing that was critical mass in 2014, but when they realized there was so much more to the allegations, they realized they couldn't go forward, the CBS News reported.

Greenblatt added that fifteen women came out and accused him of what they accused him of and although Cosby hasn't been proven guilty of anything, when that many people come out and have such similar complaints, it became a tainted situation.

 

Greenblatt noted that he is glad they're out from under the project, which was supposed to be 'The Cosby Show' actor's big return to primetime television.
