ET facilitated a reunion between Owens (best known for playing?Sondra Huxtable’s doctor husband Elvin Tibideaux) and Pulliam (who played Rudy Huxtable on the sitcom) during his interview in New York City this past Tuesday.

It’s been over 10 years since they last saw each other and Pulliam surprised Geoffrey with a FaceTime call from Atlanta.

Keshia showed support to Owens as they are each in similar situations with The Cosby Show residuals and she reiterated to Geoffrey that there’s no shame in hard work.

“I’m proud of you. You have to do what they have to do for their family and there’s nothing wrong with a hard day’s work. Period. Point blank.”

Owens graciously accepted Keshia’s well wishes and ended the call with… “Now tell me something… which Trader Joe’s do you work at?”

What are your thoughts about Rudy’s FaceTime surprise?
