Why people ignored Bill Cosby's assaults for so long w/ Richard Dryfuss

Bill Maher and Richard Dreyfuss on: how the Me Too movement started with the big fish, Mafia wives and looking the other way, the time Bill passed out and why, Richard’s first line in a movie, why Richard passed on Jaws – TWICE, and Richard’s Close Encounter with the Queen of England.

Wish Bill didn't keep interrupting and sidetracking him just when he was about to make a point.

[jonhoward]

Bill needed to shut up and let Richard speak since he was the one with the information on Cosby.

Takes Dreyfuss 1 hr. to complete a thought but it doesn't help that Bill interrupts constantly. This was painful.

[markquevedo]

No shit ! Shut the hell up Bill. Now we'll never know what Richard had to say. Its keeping me up at night.😂Bill loves to hear himself speak.. Dryfus is really an interesting guy.

Bill loves to hear the sound of his own voice.

Well I sure wish I knew what point Richard Dreyfuss was about to make at 1 minute and 23 seconds in but Bill cut him off

[jimmypage]

Man, this conversation really has this guy on the edge of his seat!

[aniboo]

Bill never lets his guests talk long before interrupting. 🤨

[oldcop]

Dryfuss strikes me as an intelligent, thoughtful guy that chooses his words carefully. Bill Mahr makes his money running his mouth so he’s always a step ahead of most of his guests.

Sometimes you gotta let a drunk man gather his thoughts to say something. I really think he was going somewhere with that but kept getting interrupted.

Cosby… teaching us 70s kids morality with Fat Albert on Saturday mornings, cute and funny Jello Pudding Pops guy, the best dad, ever, on Cosby Show. For godsake, we all grieved with him when his son was murdered. I saw him do a comedy show after that and he was his usual adorable self. So sickening and sad that that sinister shit was going on that time. He preached to the whole damn world about morality and being an example for children, chastising Eddie Murphy for a few raunchy jokes in “Raw”. Bill Cosby let us all down and was a colossal hypocrite as well as a predator. When the news broke it was one of those “nothing is sacred” moments.

I agree with the comments of Bill interrupting Richard. While annoyed, I reminded myself that Bill is a tv talk show host and used to having to rush the discussions for time and Richard doesn't help with his slow way of speaking. But I did find myself wishing Richard was able to complete what he had to say because it seems like he knows something juicy but never got to say it.

[douglasbriel]

I was heartbroken. As a kid, Bill was like the Black Mister Rogers.

[dougunderwood]

I feel so sorry for Dryfuss. I'm not sure if it's age or that he has been drinking, but it takes him a while to say anything. Oh, and Bill doesn't help. And as far as Cosby goes he should still be in jail. It's one thing to do a quaalude with someone, it's another thing to crush it up and put it in someone's drink.

Two of my favorites making drunk asses of themselves.

Meeting a man in a hotel late at night to try to get into the business of Hollywood what could go wrong?

[TheRycooder]

Bill, like Joe Scarborough, interupts Continously because they feel THEY are the only voice of reason in the room. Why they invite guests on simply to interrupt them is beyond me. In his old age Bill has become more and more stubborn. Sad to see.

[prankgirl]

Damn it, I wanted to hear Richard talk about it!

[buddy]

Maher likes the sound of his own voice so much that he interrupts the flow of his guests’ thoughts way more than I find comfortable. I kept wanting to hear Dreyfuss continúa telling his Cosby story but Maher keep interrupting him, and nothing he said was worth the interruption.

[happyscooter]

I think if Bill had let him speak at the beginning, what he was going to say was that Hollywood in the 70s in general was just brutal to women. Bill Cosby was part of a broad predatory culture.
