Pissnpink,

If you’re implying race is the issue, while that could be a factor (as it often is,) I would argue that Cosby was the central draw to his show. It was his personality, his comedy and literally his name that drove that show. If you “cancel” Cosby, you “cancel” the Cosby Show.

Masterson’s charachter, while important, isn’t central. That 70’s show is an ensemble, focusing more on POV of Topher Grace if you were to point ti one charachter.

Should we choose not to consume the entire show because one person who worked on the show turned out problematic? Is race the factor to why one was taken down and not the other. Maybe the influence of scientology, maybe as culture we are less focused on “cancel culture” (whatever that term means to you.) I don’t really know.
