I was watching TMZ tonight and saw a clip about a little person that poses as Mr. T in Hollywood. While I couldn't find a decent, share-able clip of that fantastic, mohawk-sporting little person, I did run across this episode of Mr. T's cartoon show, which surprisingly, I remembered seeing from when I was a tyke.
For those of you who don't know, Mr. T. is another Hollywood personality phenomenon who created the strange line between actor, athlete, novelty personality that is now walked by men like The Rock, John Cena, and Vern Troyer (he may not be an athlete but his notoriety closely mirrors that of Mr. T in the late 70s/early 80s). Mr. T is famous for his role as B.A. Baracaus in "The A Team" and as boxer Clubber Lang in Rocky III. Little known fact, Mr. T got his start in Hollywood working as a bodyguard for Muhummed Ali, Diana Ross, and Steve McQueen. Also, in 1984, Mr. T released an album called "Mr. T's Commandments", which instructed kids to stay away from drugs and to stay in school.
