Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids

Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids is an animated series created, produced, and hosted (in live action bookends) by comedian Bill Cosby, who also lent his voice to a number of characters, including Fat Albert himself. Filmation was the production company for the series. The show premiered in 1972 and ran until 1985 (with new episodes being produced on an "on and off" basis during that time frame). The show, based on Cosby's remembrances of his childhood gang, centered on Albert (known for his catchphrase "Hey hey hey!"), and his friends.

The show features an educational lesson in each episode, emphasized by Cosby's live-action segments. In addition, at the end of the early episodes, the gang typically gathers in their North Philadelphia junkyard to play a song on their cobbled-together instruments, summarizing the show's lesson.

Origins

The character Fat Albert first appeared in Cosby's stand-up comedy routine "Buck Buck," as recorded on his 1967 album Revenge. The stories were based upon Cosby's tales about growing up in inner city North Philadelphia. In 1969, Cosby and veteran animator Ken Mundie brought Fat Albert to animation in a one-shot prime-time special entitled Hey, Hey, Hey, It's Fat Albert.

Music video

The music video starts off with a number of high school students preparing to take an exam in a large hall, which contains a stage. Just as they turn over their papers and begin writing, the teacher in charge, Mr. McGarry, is told over the intercom to come to the headmaster's office. Mr McGarry says that he will be back in five minutes (around the length of video) and tells everyone to stay in their seats in silence. As soon as he leaves, one boy starts hitting his desk with a ruler and after a few seconds everyone else does the same on their own desks. Five are then shown walking down the corridor behind the stage. Abz Love pushes down on a lever on the wall, which dims the lights where they are and opens up the curtain. The music then starts and the students stand up, throw their papers in the air, knock their desks over and start throwing their chairs around. Girls with their hair tied back remove their hair ties to let their hair flow free. One girl also removes her glasses and throws her cardigan open. A massive party starts and the students dance with Five as they sing. Some of the male students do somersaults and breakdance and the Five boys jump high into the air at times as well. The band are showing wearing two different outfits each throughout the video.
