Considered one of the worst movies ever made, and one of the biggest flops of all time. Cosby was co-writer and producer and he himself disowned it. But as we all know, still not the worst thing Bill Cosby ever did.
Leonard Parker (Bill Cosby) is a secret agent who has been retired and is now a restaurateur, but brought out of retirement by his boss (Joe Don Baker). The adventures of him as a spy are in the non-existent parts 1-5. He is estranged from his wife Joan (Victoria Rowell). His daughter Allison (Pat Colbert) is drawn as Lisa Bonet here. Medusa (Gloria Foster) is the villain of the movie, a vegetarian who hypnotizes animals. Cosby was spokesperson for Coca-Cola and Jell-O at the time and the movie contained many product placements. His daughter his engaged to a man older than him.
Medusa has vegetarians guarding her headquarters, which Leonard fends off with meat.
They replaced the fortune teller with a character from Cracked's recurring feature The Uggly Family.
