Cosbify
v: the action of making african americans pallitable to a widespread cross-section of white america, with a similar amount of success attained by bill cosby’s “cosby show” (1984-92).
the cosbification of a tv show will normally depict an upper middle cl-ss-to-wealthy black family with one or both parents having a well-paying occupation. the parents have a close relationship which would never be beset by past lovers or baby mamas. the use of ebonics or other cultural slang would be at a minimum (aka the maximum allowable by networks other than bet, upn or the wb).
past tense: cosbified
noun: cosbification
that show “family matters” appealed to white america because it was a black sitcom, cosbified by 76%. aside from the segments which featured mainstream, early nineties rap, and the odd episode where eddie and laura encountered racist cl-ssmates, the show might as well have been cast with an all-white family.
