"MR. T". He was such a cornball and that tough guy routine was a true joke and that hair cut of his was even a bigger joke-lol I just was never impressed by this character when growing up during the 1980's because he was nothing but a CARTOON character

looking back it was corny...at the time though he was sizzling. It's like any other character or famous person, while they are hot they are thee IN THING. Years later when you look back you are like WTF??????

I disagree. He got a lot of work: His own show, guest apearances all over TV and movies... so a lot of people must of liked him. I had a "friend" who "didn't like" black people.....but liked Mr. T

And he was supposed to be funny(while cool).

And he's making a comeback. Same hair!(how often does that happen).

Have you read The Catcher in the Rye, Solomon? Holden Caulfield was always using the word "phony." :)

I must disagree. True Mr. T looks like a joke nowadays, but back in those days, if you wore 40 punds of gold around your neck, then that was saying something! ;)

I was never a fan of Mr. T. I hated his cartoon and his cereal was gross. I guess I was bitter because he beat up Rocky and killed Mickey. lol
