It's been a while since I've been here so hopefully I'm not asking some that hasn't been brought up.


While Cosby has always been cedited to being the first black actor
to star in a dramatic series the fact Cosby is a comedian makes it more iteresting and and since he was well known in the stand up comic world it might of been just as intersting that he was hired for I SPY.

also while I've always thought of Robinson and Scott being more than less equal and opposed to Napolian and whoever his sidekick was on The Man From UNCLE where Napolian was the main character.

How Come Scott never palyed any part in the opening credits?


Last in the IMDB mentions about 1 episode where one of the characters make some joke or comments about Robinson and Scott working together and both Cosby and Culp later complained and said they didn't want anymore such lines in future scripts.

And who can blame them? Why even put such stuff in the scripts? It's bad enough race has been such a prolems thoughout the years so why must they write in something to emphasize it?
