On The CW from 2005 to 2009, the TV show, "Everybody Hates Chris", has several clever episodes where the family loved to discuss (joke about) a personal health product. It was an over-the-counter medicine that the family (Mom) believed could cure every type of illness that a person could get. Members in the family would actually say (often mockingly), "Robitussin cures everything..!!"

A very clear example of what was thought can be seen when Tanya (Chris's sister) says: "Mama, Chris just got hit by a car." Rochelle (the Mom): "Oh my God, I'll go get the Robitussin." Here is a good example of how Chris's mother thinks Robitussin can fix everything. If it seems to be needed, the family will immediately use Robitussin as a cure-all for every type of injury or ailment that anyone (family member) happens to get.

With the series "Everybody Hates Chris", it is an entertaining television sitcom series inspired by the childhood experiences of comedian Chris Rock, who is 'The Narrator' (voice) of a sarcastic older Chris looking back at his youth .... . He will from time to time be caught saying: I'll now go get the Robitussin!
