T. and T.
T. and T. is an American-Canadian television series, in production from 1987 to 1990. It premiered in first-run syndication in January 1988, moving to new episodes on the Family Channel in 1990. It is a starring vehicle for Mr. T, after the cancellation of The A-Team in 1987. It was co-produced by Canadian animation firm Nelvana (in one of its few live-action productions), alongside Hal Roach Studios and successor Qintex Entertainment. The theme song was performed by Merry Clayton. PlotThe opening voice-over has the premise.
The regular cast includes Mr. T, Alex Amini as Amanda "Amy" Taler, Kristina Nicoll as Terri Taler (who replaced her sister as Turner's new partner in 1990), and David Nerman as Danforth "Dick" Decker, the owner of the gym where T.S. boxes and, eventually, set his own headquarters. Other cast include Taler's secretary Sophie (Catherine Disher); Det. Jones (Ken James), who sometimes work alongside Turner and Taler; and in season two, teenage orphan Joe Casper (Sean Roberge), who lives with Decker. For the first two seasons, Turner lives with his Aunt Martha (Jackie Richardson) and teenage cousin Renee (Rachael Crawford), upon getting out of jail and cleaning up his life. In the third season, a new detective, Dick Hargrove (David Hemblen) assists the team. Broadcast historyAiring on Global in Canada (then known as the CanWest Global System), the show aired in first-run syndication in the United States. However, the financial collapse of distribution partner Qintex in 1989 nearly saw the show cancelled, which put Nelvana on the brink of bankruptcy; in six weeks, the company managed to find a replacement syndicator, saving the show and the company.[1] T. and T. is currently streaming on Amazon, Tubi, and Nelvana's official YouTube channel Retro Rerun. It is currently rerunning on the Canadian version of Adult Swim since January 2, 2023.[2] EpisodesSeason 1: 1988
