One bad apple ruins the bunch.
Cosby was the titular character. His actions reflect on everyone. The supporting cast and crew did good work and were paid (hopefully fairly) for it, and I hope their efforts will always be remembered but the work is also tainted now.
One thing I'm unsure of is if Cosby wrote any of the shows. If so, his creeping shadow gets worse because he's a hypocrite. If not, then it's unfortunate to the writers.
There will never be a black or white answer in this but I have to draw lines somewhere. I don't demonize the supporting cast, only the titular one.
The cast can and should denounce Cosby in cases like that but.. again, Apple and the bunch.
