Mr. T, FlavorWave Oven Turbo
No, no, Mr. T, I pity the fool — the fool you've made of yourself in this horrendous infomercial. Never mind that this product uses halogen heat, infrared waves and convection technology to cook your food up to three times faster than a conventional oven can. (Doesn't that all sound vaguely dangerous?) No, the worst part is the A-Team star's co-opting of his famous line to threaten people into wanting this product. Is nothing sacred? He can have that "mouth-watering turkey" and those quickly cooked barbecue chops all to himself. This ad campaign is just unappetizing. His entrance on this set doesn't help matters.
