come again? i pity the fool
Suddenly Mr. T seems to be popping up everywhere I turn. First, Goodby, Silverstein & Partners recently created a Culture Fool campaign for Comcast starring the brawny mohawked man. Next, Joshua Davis at FITC mentions that he had the pleasure of being on the same plane with Mr. T to Los Angeles (tho Mr. T was in first class, and Joshua wasn’t). Then, this morning I get an email from “TV Land Insider” inviting me to send a Mr. T-mail. The instructions on how to send an email to are humorously overzealous if you have ever used the “send to a friend” function on a site. All this to promote Mr. T’s new reality tv show, I Pity the Fool, where Mr. T will go “into the real world to dispense advice, motivate procrastinators and rev up slackers.” Well, at least Mr. T is maximizing his comeback.
