Bill Cosby 77 is an unreleased 2014 stand-up comedy film featuring Bill Cosby, filmed before a live audience at the San Francisco Jazz Center in California. Cosby chose the venue in honor of his friend Enrico Banducci and his establishment the hungry i. The comedian said his wife Camille Cosby helped with the editing process of the film.
Around sixty minutes in duration, the film features Cosby pontificating on matters of children, romance, and matrimony. The film received its name because it was taped on Cosby's 77th birthday on July 12, 2014.
Cosby chose Netflix to release the performance because it would be able to be seen by viewers without interruptions for advertisements. On August 14, 2014, Netflix announced that Bill Cosby 77 would be made available to its subscribers on November 28, 2014. Netflix intended for the program to be available from the day after Thanksgiving in the United States.
On November 18, 2014, Netflix announced that it would delay the film's release date. The announcement by Netflix came a matter of hours after Janice Dickinson and several women made sexual assault accusations against Cosby. One year later, Netflix officially canceled the film's release.
