First of, this show is not really a spinoff, and no Mr. T was not a guest star!! He was actually in every episode (Duh the name of the cartoon is Mr. T).
This is one the great early cartoon which talked to morals to kids in every episode like He-Man and G.I Joe.
In fact, Mr. T, often gave out advice that is almost stupid and obvious today, but most parents did not tell their kids!!!
T often told his "kids" not to talk to strangers and develop a special code with their kids, in case a stranger was picking them up , impersonation a friend of the family!!!!
Geez imagine how many less missing and exploited childrenm there be if someone told them this? Many
Overall it's a great cartoon and like Mr. T. "I Pity the Fool", who says it isnt.
Give a 9 out of 10

All the reviews are nice and above 7 except for one. This is an awesome cartoon with morals which no cartoons have anymore. We are losing our way. Such a cool story! The kids are allowed to fight though haha but who cares. Not me! This is a 9!!!!!!
Reviewing this, or at least summarizing this as an adult of today: Mr. T is a Jesse White sort of thug with gold chains that has a group of tumblers with him who are all minors and Mr. T routinely places them in harms way while teaching them that violence solves problems.
Reviewing this as a kid that grew up in the '80s: MR. T!!!!!!!!!!!! Wait, there are other characters in it? Who cares.
MR. T!!!!!!!!! It's a shame he's not really famous any more...kids like me, kids all over the world LOVED him and, unlike MOST child celebrities, Mr. T has no dark secrets that destroyed his career.
He was awesome and we want him back...
And you know, he's from Chicago too so hometown loyalty and all.

Well meaning but ultimately poor quality cartoon from the early 80s, typical of that time period. Corny with stilted voice performances and painfully trite dialogue, its value today is mainly kitsch, which explains its extremely late night/early morning showing now on Adult Swim.
Like GI Joe and other cartoons of the period, the cheap, unimaginative animation is accompanied by a morality lesson. Unlike those shows, however, the plots are generally oriented in some form around the central moral lesson rather than merely tacked-on as a didactic lecture by the cartoon lead at the end (though there is a non-animated "wrap up" of the lesson by Mr. T at the end).
I give it credit for trying hard to teach basic values, but I was 11 years old when this came out and I would have found it cheesy (had I seen it during its original airing - frankly, I don't remember it).
Personally I do not understand, beyond basic nostalgia for Saturday Mornings and so on, why so many people consider the 80s some kind of golden age for animation; it wasn't. Animation was cheap, much of it looked the same, and the artwork was poor, generic - workmanlike, even.
Nickelodeon in many ways set the standard for at very least making cartoons look distinctive. This cartoon, like most others of the period, pale in comparison with more recent offerings like Spongebob Squarepants, Dexter's Laboratory, Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, and so on. These cartoons may not have the Reagan-era moralizing, but they do have style (and surrealism, and imagination) and considerably more talented voice actors and far, far less stilted dialogue. (Not that every modern cartoon has something unique to offer but there are far better choices now.) Speaking of voice actors, I notice that Phil LaMarr did some of his first voice work on this cartoon. He would become a considerable talent (voice-wise) in years to come.
In some sense Mr. T is a good example of a time when animation was not taken seriously as an art form; rather, it was sold as "product" to kids, and like many sugar cereals advertised during showings of these kinds of cartoons, there's not much substance here, artistically.

Mister T is a cartoon based on Mr. T, a popular actor and tough guy who at the time of this cartoon's premiere, was rising to fame after his first major role in Rocky III as well as his appearance on The A-Team. This cartoon can also be put on the long list of cartoons copying the Scooby-Doo formula, as it feels like one, only without the monsters.
In this cartoon, Mr. T would start each episode in a live action segment to explain the episode's plot. These live action segments are neat because they are actually there to not only introduce the episode, but also reveal there is actually a moral attached to said episode, which is revealed at the end of each episode. Then we cut to the animated segments, where Mr. T is portrayed as the coach for a youth gymnastics team, composed of teenagers Jeff, Woody, Robin, and Kim. Joined by Robin's little brother Spike, bus driver Ms. Bisby, and Bulldozer, a bulldog with a mohawk haircut owned by Mr. T (as the animal is to fill the role of obligatory animal mascot popular in Scooby clones), Mr. T and the teens get involved in various mysteries each episode, which is set in different locations in the world.
Okay, while this cartoon has a mixed reception, I, for one, am one of those people who actually like this cartoon after seeing this rerun on Adult Swim. Basically, the show is your typical Scooby-Doo clone. The main difference is Mr. T is the star and there are only few episodes with supernatural elements, with most of the villains being terrorists, street gangs, spies from other countries, or other troublemakers. The cartoon is set in the world, however, it does have some fantasy moments, one of them being Mr. T is gifted with superhuman strength, allowing him to do things the real Mr. T would never do (like in the intro where he swings an alligator with ease holding onto only its tail, or in one episode where he rips an iron lock off with his bare hands) as well as a running gag where people who deny the team entry are actually afraid to say no to Mr. T, as they are scared by him. This is a neat cartoon worth checking out.

Lo sapevi?
- QuizSeveral episodes show that Mr. T's gymnastics team is significantly larger even though only four are part of the main cast (Jeff/Robin/Kim/Woody.) Most notably, in the show's opening theme, there is a scene in which the main cast is riding in their bus, and it's almost entirely filled with other team members.
