RIP Malcolm-Jamal Warner (1970 - 2025): A "Best of Theo Huxtable" Collection - "The Cosby Show": Part 8b (2nd subpart of Part 8) of at least 14
Malcom-Jamal Warner was already an active TV "child actor" when he was cast, at age of 14, for part of "Theodore 'Theo' Huxtable" , the only Son of a family of 5 children , for the 1st season of "The Cosby Show". He played "Theo" for it's Entire Run (1984 - 1992)! 8 Seasons! He even Directed some episodes as an Adult! But "Theo" is the Character that Malcom-Jamal is most-associated with as that was the Character that Malcolm-Jamal played the Longest of his Acting Career. So a number of Tribute videos include Stills and pics of him as "Theo". THIS is part of a Collection of "Theo" clips.
Malcolm-Jamal Warner, well-known Actor on TV and Film, died off the coast of Costa Rica on July 20, 2025, in an apparent drowning accident. Many Tribute Videos have been created in his Memory. This is the 4th of a set I collected. Split into many parts.
Original was 12:18 minutes. Split into segments of 1 minute or less, in part to avoid Copyright, but also to make into Classic YouTube SHORTS, so Links can work (▶️)
Part 8 - split into 2 subparts, a. and b., because the whole scene is over 1 minute.
Theo's Plan to get his parents to fund his New Business:
Part 8 b.
Theo wants to start his own business right out of High School! Plan / Proposal - Don't Go to College! That will save his parents lots of money., So -- use the money to start up his business! 😂
In Part 8.a. Theo tells his parents he want's to start up a business, but says it's Unfair to his Parents to do it after he does 4 years of college [I'm not quite sure what he's saying. Is he saying the business has Nothing to do with what his College Studies might be?].
Instead - Don't send him to College! Give Him the money, instead!
How much? He picks the Most-expensive U.S. College as his Expense Base! 😂 Wouldn't his parents went to send him to the Best College? 😂 Of course!
Part 8.b.
Theo ups the ante by saying there 5% Annual Inflation. AND there would be LAB Fees! When asked, he said he would be a Chemistry Major! His father replies "And we Would have been proud of you." 😂😂
Note: Theo is wearing a sexy Purple tank top shirt. 😀 Why did the costumers keep dressing him in Purple (see Parts 6 & 7).?
