While channel-surfing I happened on that Seventy-Five Years of NBC special, only tuning in long enough to hear a comedy bit by Mr. T, of all people. And to my amazement, it was hilarious. He presented a list of “Fools I’ve Pitied”, in keeping with his trademark line “I pity the fool”. He mentioned how he pitied the guy who cancelled Baywatch; he mentioned Jennifer Aniston who — like Mr. T — had her talent overlooked in favor of her haircut; and he pitied Screech from Saved By The Bell, because “We all pitied Screech”. The line that got the biggest laugh from me, though, was “I pity the East Wing. I mean, does anybody know what they do in the East Wing?”
