Last week, Bill Cosby, 72, received the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor, after declining the recognition two previous times claiming the ceremony to be far too profane, according to Entertainment Weekly.
The ceremony consisted of two hours of highlights from Cosby's career in standup, and television, particularly recognizing his role in The Cosby Show. Guests included comedians from Dick Gregory to Seinfeld, who discussed memorable moments in Cosby's career.
