While Bill Cosby continues to be slammed for allegedly sexually assaulting more than 50 women, his “Cosby Show” co-star Malcolm-Jamal Warner questions why other Hollywood fixtures get a pass.
“You look at just how the media is playing this whole thing out and I can’t help but think about Woody Allen, Roman Polanski, Stephen Collins, [it’s] very clear the crimes they’ve committed,” Warner, 45, said in a pre-taped interview with “The Real” set for Monday. “But there is no one that’s calling for Woody’s movies to be pulled off the air.”
“Roman Polanski is still celebrated,” Warner added. “Stephen Collins’ show still comes on. It’s interesting how it’s very unbalanced.”
Director Polanski, 82, was jailed for having sex with a 13-year-old girl in 1977. Collins, 68, who was the star of “7th Heaven,” confessed to child molestation in 2014. Allen, 80, famously married Mia Farrow’s adopted daughter with Andre Previn, Soon Yi, in 1997.
While Cosby and his army of lawyers work to keep the 78-year-old television legend out of jail, the “Cosby Show” has been pulled from the airwaves.
“It’s literally taken money out of my pocket,” Warner said of the show. “So, I got my own personal feelings about that, because it personally affects me.”
In October 2015, Warner says he spoke with Cosby and offered not to publicly share the details of their conversation.
“But it’s just a bad situation all around — for him, for his family, the women … [and] the legacy of the show,” he said.
