Whatever Happened to: The Huxtables

When we last saw them:
In 1992, Theo graduated from NYU and the whole family (sans Denise) all gathered to attend. Unlike most sitcom finales, each individual character didn't embark on a new life. No one picked up and moved and they didn't sell the brownstone. Life just went on. And here's what I think happened in the 18 years since we last saw them.

Dr. Cliff Huxtable:
Cliff retired from practicing and is now living at home with Claire. He spends his time "fixing" the house and trying his best to become the "king of new technology". He's taken up golf and to no one's surprise he's not very good at it. He still mentors young doctors and is a staple on radio call-in for medical segments.

Claire Huxtable:
Claire retired from law, only to return a few months later because she wasn't sure if she could handle being home all the time. A few years after her return to law, she took a job as a law professor at NYU. She also published a best selling book, "Love and Law: How to Prosecute and Parent".

Sondra Huxtable Tibideaux:
Sondra decided to become an Art Buyer before opening up her own Art Gallery in New York City. She returned to college soon after to study Business and then got involved in real estate. She, Elvin, and her kids, Winnie and Nelson, all travel overseas as a family once a year.

Elvin Tibideaux:
Elvin followed in his father-in-laws footsteps and became one of New York's most highly respected OB/GYN's. He opened his own office in upstate New York.

Winnie and Nelson Tibideaux:
Winnie and Nelson are now Seniors at Hillman University, their Great Grandparents, grandparents and Aunt's Alma Mater. Winnie is majoring in Music and Drama, while Nelson intends to continue the tradition of male doctors in the family.

Denise Huxtable Kendall:
Denise lives in Connecticut now with her husband Martin and their 17 year old son Martin Heathcliff Kendall. After years of traveling with Martin and raising Little Martin, Denise finally went to school to study Special education. She now works at a local high school as a teacher.

Lt. Martin Kendall:
After over 20 years of service in the Navy, Martin retired and is now a Navy ROTC instructor at the same high school Denise works in. He also serves as the teams basketball coach where his son Little Martin is the starting point guard.

Olivia Kendall:
Olivia graduated from Lincoln University, the same school Vanessa attended. She studied Drama and dance and graduated in 2008. She moved to New York City where she dances for many off Broadway productions and a theater company. She returns home often to see her parents, but spends alotta time at the Huxtables.

Theo Huxtable:
Theo graduated from NYU in the finale. He continued working for the community center before moving to Virginia to take a job as a high school teacher. He started his own mentoring program where he helped young men with learning disabilities. Theo moved back to New York where he began dating Justine again. They later married and have 3 boys, Theo Jr., Russell, and Al. Theo moved the family to Pennsylvania where he opened and runs his own community outreach center that focuses on helping at-risk teens in Philadelphia.

Vanessa Huxtable:
After graduating from Lincoln University, where she studied Psychology, she got a job in Pennsylvania as a high school counselor. She went back to Lincoln to get her masters and became a Psychiatrist in Illinois. She got married to a musician named Craig and had a baby boy named Craig Jr., who is now 10. The family then moved to Florida where Vanessa was able to open her own office.

Rudy Huxtable:
Rudy attended and graduated from NYU, where she studied Biology. She decided to go back to school to become a Veterinarian. For the last 8 years she has had an on and off relationship with Kenny, her long time next door neighbor who now runs his own night club in downtown Manhattan. She lives with a college friend, but she can usually be found back at the Huxtables.

Pam Tucker:
Pam moved to California with her mother not long after he graduation from High School. After a few years, she attended a local college where she studied Journalism. After graduating, she wrote for a local newspaper. After moving back to New York, she became a freelance writer until she was hired as an assistant editor for a fashion magazine.

Russell and Anna Huxtable:
Cliff's parents sold their home in New Jersey and moved to Florida. They spend most of their time traveling around to country visiting their grandkids and great-grandkids, trying to make every major event they can. They are now in their 90s and just celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary.
