TC Carson Reveals Losing Everything After 'Living Single', Considered Restaurant Job

www.hypeplustv.com/ - Back in 2020, loved actor and musician TC Carson sat down with Comedy Hype for his first one on one. During this exchange he would share how bad things got for him after losing his mother. Instagram: @ComedyHype & Twitter: @ComedyHype_

[@WhosJusToi]

I remember my dad told me he worked on the lot that Living Single was shot as security and he remembers TCs last day. He said he got in the elevator where my dad was to leave and he had his head down and my pops told him “hey man….you know everything is gonna be ok right?” And he said TC looked at him with tears in his eyes and gave him the MOST sincere thank you he had ever heard. I’ll never forget that and my dad always remembered that up until he passed

[@debraphillips1310]

[@NoLineNoWait123AbC]

Sounds weak of TC. Did he actually think Shid was going to last forever? Rhetorical. He didn’t save money? I can’t stand a pitiful situation. It makes me upset/uncomfortable, as in a I need to slap somebody.

[@oliverseoliverse]

He is beyond dignified, classy, talented... A golden voice. Age gracefully. Intelligent, someone to admire. The comments that mention how he was made for Broadway and/or a professorship at a university in theatre are so right.

[@2Good2BeTrue45]

You can tell he wants yo be successful on the big screen amd get a long term role in a big tv series. Those jobs you mentioned do not pay well at all are part of the "grind" before you get to where T.C Carson was. T.C Carson, being one legendary sitcom, making the money he was making, being the voice of Kratos before he was unceremoniously kicked out for Christooher Judge before the technology could get get his performances even greater, etc cannot just go to do anything, which is the same sentiment he spoke of in this interview

[@oliverseoliverse]

@2Good2BeTrue45 Don't big time Broadway names make an enormous amount of money? You were saying Broadway and a professorship are more like the grunt/grind but my understanding is that there are levels of acclaim in them both that command high pay. Now, I agree he most certainly wants success commensurate to his experience and I think he is overlooked by the industry. He is a gem that really isn't hidden but is treated like he is. Of course actors have multiple streams of income, so I don't think Broadway and teaching would be his only work. I was just saying those are things he would be amazing for.

[@mrgee0596]

I think what he meant was that he knew he had a specific calling. And based on that conviction, his calling won't allow him to accept anything less. Fast food and low skill jobs are used to represent the least a person can pursue or accomplish. Although respectable, some people are aware of a "higher" purpose. I don't think that was a diss. He's never presented that kind of mindset.

@@chichip2510please shut the hell up. Yall swear every black person that’s rich and successful sold out to someone.

She’s not just making money in front of the screen she’s making money behind the screen as well.

I love this guy, but this is the problem with the industry. People get a little taste of being able to pay their bills with their art and when they can’t, they don’t feel like they can go back into the regular world for fear of embarrassment. I’m not saying anyone should dream of having a job at target but save your money and work. Whatever job helps you pay the bills while you work on your craft is a blessing, not a detriment. I commend him for going on his own path, but a lot of people will find that harder to do than a 9 to 5.

I understand what you're saying, but I think a lot of people takes other people's Journey personal and get offended when they say something that isn't aligned with what we feel like what we should be doing. And heck he's 65, I'm more than sure he doesn't have the capacity for that. Heck I retired from retail after a few years. He is not Geoffrey Owens, and his purpose is not to work in retail, and that's fine. He is an artist so he probably needs to feel fulfilled and he's probably has done enough of the ground work to exhaustion and doesn't have the capability to do it anymore. He doesn't even need to work in retail, he is an established actor with lots of talent and he's respected, all he needs to do is find a way to translate his talents to the now.

Tyler Perry should hire this man for something now!

He's too good for Tyler perry. He doesn't deserve him.

TC Carson is too dignified for Tyler Perry.

[@Lionheart_He-Man]

Then Tyler would try to put TC in a dress 👗, that’s ‘Hellywood’ for you

[@thetruequeen6747]

No. TC personal characteristics r not in line with Tyler Perry’s personality or mindset standards. TC has class, morals, dignity and respect and there it is.

[@krissyjn]

Absolutely Not

[@sharonjackson268]

I hope he gets a stable gig. He's always been on point.

[@jessicaferguson4072]

He was always one of my favorite characters on living single. I sense a profound peace upon him. I pray that he finds much success on his journey. It’s refreshing to see an actor so grounded, intelligent, and classy.

[@pandemus1]

Thank you TC ❤

[@democracyforever5391]

He should write a one man show and showcase all of his talents, including singing. Make it semi autobiographical and go on a cross country tour ending in NYC, Off Broadway or Broadway.

[@definedbydgbeautyllc7371]

He looks great I hope that things look up for him…. I always enjoyed watching him on tv! His break will come again! Blessings ❤

[@donnadupree6731]

Alonso Robierto found himself in similar circumstances, working at Best Buy somebody in the industry heard of it and hired him and I think he now has at least part time work.

Maybe he should reach out to Tyler Perry or even think about teaching acting with his credentials and resume he could easily be an acting instructor/professor at a college or university and still pursue acting jobs. Done and done.

[@inezlewis8573]

A lot of people don't want to be involved with T.P. And there's a reason behind that. He makes money. But, his values & morals are sometimes suspect. Remember, "All money ain't good money."😉

Rewatched the series more than once in the last decade. A lot of shows from back then didn't age well, but Living Single is so good. The nostalgia is real, the social commentary is still relevant in every way. And Queen Latifah reigns supreme of course. His character was so on point, so smooth, so handsome, so well done. He brought a profound dignity at all times, even when he was doing comedic scenes. Hes the whole package. Sad to hear he had a rough time with his career. He deserves better and more.
