Before "Don't mess with the hair".

Before "Don't mess with the hair".
More useless trivia from a guy older than dirt.

Which Pulp Fiction actor stared on a 70s sitcom about a learning disability class lead by a teacher with a cornball sense of humor? What was the character's name, and who was the actor? What sitcom did he star in, prior to becoming an international star? 

What was this character's famous repetitive catch phrase?

Who was the character who always raised his hand and spazzed out when he was enthusiastic about wanting to answer?

"Welcome Back, Kotter" class didn't have learning disabilities, they were just stupid.

Nope, just a combination of Google and knowing how Brian thinks.

The show never used those terms, but in reality, classes that addressed students who had learning problems did exist back then. 

And I can tell you from personal experience, I was put in classes by my public school teachers that knew I had problems learning, and I did. I am not stupid, but I DID have a learning disability. "Sweathogs" was a name to denote that class had special needs, that regular classes didn't have. 

I wasn't stupid. I was Arnold yes. But I look back at why I didn't absorb information and the truth was, most of that was performance anxiety. 

i don't learn like others. I never responded well to "listen" "repeat" and "sink or swim". 

I always retained information better when I could stop the teacher and ask questions and get them to put it in words I could relate to. America's school system isn't based on that. It is simply based on playing a tape and expecting the students to repeat what they see. That is not education.

Now you pissed me off, I'll take your bait. You mentioned Adam-12, one of my favorite shows as a kid.

NOBODY is allowed to respond until I give Boru a wrong answer and make a fool of myself.

If it helps, ‘I don’t know’ is an acceptable answer. Wrong, but acceptable.
