Five women, including two actors who appeared on \u201cThe Cosby Show,\u201d filed a lawsuit in New York on Monday, accusing disgraced comedy legend Bill Cosby of sexually assaulting them.<\/p>\n

The plaintiffs named the actor, Kaufman Astoria Studios Inc., The Carsey-Werner Company and NBCUniversal Media as defendants in the 34-page lawsuit filed in Manhattan Supreme Court.<\/p>\n

“The Cosby Show,” which ran from 1984 to 1992 on NBC, was filmed at studios now controlled by Kaufman Astoria and produced by Carsey-Werner, according to the civil action.<\/p>\n

All the defendants are “culpable and liable because they knew and\/or should have known that Bill Cosby was sexually abusing, assaulting, and\/or battering women, including on their premises, but did nothing to stop it,” according to the complaint.<\/p>\n

NBC News does not typically identify victims of sexual assault, but the five women in this civil action all named themselves in the complaint.<\/p>\n
