In the Me and Mr. T episode, when the teacher is writing down the answer, it seems that she would never through with the first word, but when she finish "Philadelphia", she got through with in seconds. Impossible. In the closing credits, you don't see the "Philadelphia" word at all when she has gets frightened.

the one thing has has always bugged me about that episode.Now this is the early 80's right? That's when Mr.T was popular right?I'm pretty sure if Mr.T showed up at my school there would of been excitment in the air.Every kid in school would of been swarming around Mr.T wanting his autograph. But the kids in The Silver Spoon episode act like Mr.T was nothing special-OK what planet did this show take place in? Yeah I'm sure today kids would be like "Who is Mr.T?" But in the 80's he would of been king at my school.

The kids and the teacher not recognizing him didn't make sense to me either. If he was suppose to just be a bodyguard (and not a celebrity) they should have used another name.

This was 1982. It may have been before he was well-known (??????????)

What about Rocky III? Rocky III came out in 1982.Mr.T played Clubber Lang and he defeated Rocky for the world Tittle. Did Rocky III come out before Silver Spoons or after? If it was after then I would have to agree with you.

The A-team didn't premeire until the 2nd season of the 82-83 season so his appearance on SS was before he became know for his role on the A-team which was in between january of 83 and May of 83. Now when he guest starred on Diffrent strokes he was popular because the A-team had already completed it's first season
