 There's an episode of the Cosby Show on Nick at Nite at the moment
which was directed by Alan Smithee. (Alan Smithee, of course, used to
be the standard pseudonym used by directors who wanted their real names
taken off a work.) Imagine my surprise that a director was so upset
with the squeaky-clean, ultra-popular Cosby show that s/he'd want his
name off an episode. Does anybody know the story there? The episode was 198, "You Can't Stop the Music", in which Cliff and
Claire go to a Latin Music festival while Kenny babysits Olivia. ----j7y
