Occasionally, pediatrician, Dr. Heathcliff "Cliff" Huxtable (Bill Cosby) gathered with the male members of his family for a clandestine meeting so that he could eat a hoagie sandwich – a cholesterol no-no frowned upon by his wife, Clair (Phylicia Rashad).

Rules of the club included:

• Whatever we eat remains a secret
• If you can find a good woman to be with, the meeting is adjourned
• If you can get rid of the other members, you can have all the hoagies for yourself.
