That's not me talkin'... That's someday Saturday morning stuntman "Super Dave" Osborne (comedian Bob Einstein) provoking fellow future cartoon caricature Mr. T. during a bit from Showtime's sketch comedy show Bizarre (1980-85).
Although the minimum amount of research hasn't placed an exact date on the video, it can be deduced that it was shot between the release of Rocky III (5/28/82) and the debut of the A-Team (1/23/83), meaning that it's roughly a year before Mister T. started solving crimes with his team of gymnasts and a full decade before Fox aired Super Dave: Daredevil for Hire.
Check-out the clip after the jump. Be advised that some of the language is offensive - but, as you'll see, that's the whole point.
Why did we here at Supercade pick today to share this? Well, it's Mr. Laurence Tureaud's 59th birthday! So... drink your school, stay in drugs, and don't do milk!
Saturday Morning Supercade pity the foo' who don't wish Mr. T. a "Happy Birthday"!
