I was doing a search for old tv shows at youtube and I found this:

I know the Mr. T character made an appearance on Welcome Back Kotter in the "Career Day" episode, but this was a surprise.

It's only the first few minutes, not the whole episode, but it looks like the Sweathogs only appeared at the beginning anyway.

Did anyone else notice what I noticed in the opening credits in this clip? Mr. T and Tina was created by James Komack who also happened to be an executive producer on Welcome Back Kotter. I think this explains why the Sweathogs appeared here. Mr. Komack was simply using characters from his established hit show to help launch his new show. For you trivia fans out there I also noticed that this episode was written by Madelyn Davis and Bob Carroll Jr. two members of the I Love Lucy writing staff.
