NBC Cancels Bill Cosby Project Bill Cosby was dealt a second blow today when NBC announced that plans to develop a project with the comedian have been shelved. "We can confirm that the Cosby project is no longer in development," a spokeswoman for the network told ABC News. There was no further comment. Meanwhile, a source close to the project added that it was still in its nascent stages. There was no delivered script and the project had not been greenlit to production. Just hours before, Netflix postponed the launch of a new Bill Cosby stand-up comedy special, a spokesman with the streaming service confirmed to ABC News. ???Bill Cosby 77,??? which was taped on Cosby???s 77th birthday in July, was scheduled to premiere on Netflix Nov. 27, with a focus on topics such as marriage, relationships and children. ???At this time we are postponing the launch of the new stand-up comedy special ???Bill Cosby 77,?????? Netflix said in a statement. David Brokaw, a representative for Cosby, acknowledged Netflix???s decision. ???My client agrees with Netflix,??? Brokaw said. The allegations have gained attention in recent weeks as a number of women have come forward. John P. Schmitt, Cosby's lawyer, posted a notice Sunday to the famed comedian's website, saying Cosby would not be addressing "decade-old, discredited allegations," even though some women have recently come forward for the first time publicly. "The fact that they are being repeated does not make them true," Schmitt said in the statement. Cosby declined to address the allegations in an interview with NPR posted Saturday, simply shaking his ???head no,??? interviewer Scott Simon said.
