    A Very Watchable Series

    The chemistry between Bill Cosby and James Naughton in this series is reminiscent of Cosby and Robert Culp in "I Spy." Their banter and fun rapport is the highlight of every episode of "The Cosby Mysteries." These are very watchable shows and a surprise they got canceled so soon. Maybe people weren't willing to give Cosby a chance in this somewhat serious role. He had a bigger hit in 1996-2000 with the sitcom "Cosby." Obviously Bill Cosby wanted to try something different with "The Cosby Mysteries." A solid cast makes these shows interesting- including Rita Moreno and Dante Beze (aka the rapper "Mos Def").
