About Silver Spoons: Even though he is now running his family's multinational toy empire, Edward Stratton III (Joel Higgins) has never quite grown up. An overgrown kid, he lives in a mansion filled with arcade games and toy trains. But when he discovers that his brief marriage twelve years earlier produced a son, Edward faces the responsibilities of being a parent to the youngster, Ricky (Ricky Schroder). Springing him from the boarding school where he's been sent by his mother, Edward brings Ricky home to live at his estate. With help from his personal assistant, Kate Summers (Erin Grey), he looks to teach Ricky how to enjoy being a kid, while Ricky helps his new dad see the value in accepting full-fledged adulthood. And as Ricky stands on the brink of being a teenager, Edward begins to see Kate as more than just an employee.

Before the fame Mr. T was a real life bodyguard for numerous celebrities ...he was the real deal

[@CruceEntertainment]

If I had ever met him in person, I would just assume that.

[@charles1203]

Yes, how he was discovered for, rocky 3. His mother did not like the part, I didn’t raise you that way. He had to explain, it was just a movie.

[@bilalrashad6636]

I like how that teacher was scared of Mr. T 😂

[@joemasters2270]

I remember the part where the poor woman was so scared she could barely write on the chalkboard before running out of the room 😆😆😆

[@wealldieatthehandsoflovedones]

Mr. T. Was always one step away from laughing.

[@soulstrength]

Funny, I was JUST thinking about this episode YESTERDAY!!! Best line from this episode is when Clarence says "I'm tired of eating cookies and water!" Classic! 😂❤

[@dw8840]

Mr T be like "You got that, fool!?"

[@KeiFox]

Gotta love how when Mr. T stands up and gives his speech, the camera is adjusted so he's slightly off-center so both he and that portrait of George Washington can be shown side-by-side together.

[@lingchen2]

Mr T was a One of a Kind. I became friends with his Brother Gus at the Chicago Police Academy. Both Good Guys.

[@Rexerman89]

"Mr. T's great! I saw him before all of this! He was in a bouncer competitition breaking down doors and chairs running threw a bar being timed from one end of the bar to the other! He had a smaller mohawk though, but it was him lol!""

The guy playing Ox/Hobart was really busy during this time period, doing guest appearances and then his own show.

[@averythecoolcat]

I LOVE SILVER SPOONS WHY THEY TAKE IT OFF TV , I MISS IT , IT WAS FUNNY SHOW ,

[@averythecoolcat]

It had a good run, lasted about 5 seasons.

[@pinkfreud62]

All the good shows got bought out by sreaming services. Now you have to pay to see full episodes. And then you gotta wonder out of many, which paid services host which shows you wanna watch.

[@misstee101]

Full episode, please 🙏

[@yasminvaughn2975]

I love this tape!

[@charles1203]

Very well put.

[@manuginobilisbaldspot424]

It's so ironic that his biggest role was of this oversized villain, and then he played a protagonist/hero the remainder of his acting/entertainment career.

[@shimma25]

The guy Ox is hilarious - one of the funniest bullies I’ve seen!

[@jaredmayo5820]

[@thedrewdog]

The acting on this show was better than I expected, I'd never see this show before. But those kids gave some damn good performances....that being said, Ricky Schroder is a nutbar.

[@entertainingsportshighligh7525]

In the 1970's they had - (THE FONZ) In the 1980's they had - (MR -T)

[@MyNameIsUnavailable]

Real question: when THE A TEAM was an NBC property, didnt MR. T jump to ABC and do Diff'Rent Strokes? Am I missing a timeline issue?

[@ecto1996]

Clarence is played by Darien Dash, brother of Actress Stacy Dash.

[@BrotherDerrick3X]

Both are the cousins of Damon Dash.
