He likely will be let out of the slam in the next day or so.

He was doing a 3 to 10 year stint.

But now he can resume his career.

There are plenty of actors and voice over guys older than Bill. His agent is probably lining up gigs as I type this.

None of these people have a clue. The decision of the court had nothing to do with guilt or innocence. It had to do with due process of the law, of which Cosby clearly was deprived.

I’m not a fan of what ol’ Bill did, but bottom line, prosecution of him using the testimony that he gave after waiving his 5th amendment rights based on the DA’s explicit promises… was a grievous breach of the rule of law.

One wonders if a white dude, under the same circumstances, would have been prosecuted.

Bill is now working on a documentary with the Lionsgate studio, and also plans his return to stage comedy.

https://nypost.com/2021/07/03/bill-cosby-im-making-a-movie-and-returning-to-the-stage/

According to the article:

He said he will work to support people who have been falsely accused in court and wrongly tried and convicted. “We can’t let up. We’ve got to mobilize,” Cosby said. “We’ve got to get the NAACP and it’s Crisis Magazine involved and black journalists, black men writers, black women writers, everyone must put their pen to paper and get the truth out.”

Possibly working to get an alliance with BLM? ???

Nope, he’s gonna be out there working his hustle. Maybe he and Felicia Rashad will get a reboot of The Cosby Show produced and put out ther in streaming TV.

It is not a stretch to say the public has soured on him and any endeavor of this nature will not be met with success. It will also have to be completely self-produced and self distributed, as no company will touch him with a 90 foot pole in the current culture and climate. No, it's more likely he'll spend his remaining days playing golf with the likes of OJ Simpson.

Bill has gone in the offensive against Howard University, in response to them hanging Felicia Rashad out to dry.

I don't know what acting he can do at 83, This is not the 80's where he had The Cosby Show, Picture Pages and The Pudding Pops commercials.

Despite what Cosby has become, I still like The Cosby Show.  I have good memories watching that show and I will always love it, but as far as anything new goes, Cosby is done.  Just like Kevin Spacey, he'll probably never work again

Bill Cosby won’t set foot in NYC’s famed Comedy Cellar, owner says

https://nypost.com/2021/07/11/bill-cosby-not-welcome-at-nycs-famed-comedy-cellar-owner/

It’s no joke — Bill Cosby isn’t welcome at this legendary Big Apple comedy club.

The owner of the Comedy Cellar in Greenwich Village — which has hosted stars including Jerry Seinfeld, Robin Williams and Chris Rock — won’t allow the disgraced comic to perform on the heels of his prison release, he told The Post on Sunday.

Club owner Noam Dworman — who let Aziz Ansari and Louis C.K. perform in 2018 after their respective sexual-misconduct scandals — said he won’t book Cosby in the beloved, brick-lined basement venue because Cellar audiences wouldn’t support it.

If Cosby’s routine was more along the lines of Martin Lawrence or Andrew Dice Clay, he would have no problem getting back into the game. Probably would have played from prison. But for the Cosby that everyone remembers, he’s done.
