Mr. T to host home renovation series ‘I Pity the Tool’

LOS ANGELES, March 19 (UPI) — Mr. T has landed a new home renovation series.

The 62-year-old actor will host I Pity the Tool on the DIY Network. The program will follow Mr. T and his team as they remodel outdated homes, and is scheduled to premiere later this year.

Several episodes are expected to feature projects for those in need. The pilot will reportedly see Mr. T help out an old associate, and future installments will focus on military veterans and families experiencing hard times.

“I am tough, but deep inside my toughness, I like to let people know I’m an old-fashioned mama’s boy,” the star said in an interview with Variety. “I have a heart of gold, but I’m really a marshmallow in my heart.”

Mr. T is known for portraying Bosco “B.A.” Baracus on NBC series The A-Team, and originated the signature phrase “I pity the fool!” as James “Clubber” Lang in Rocky III. Actor William Shatner and rapper Vanilla Ice also have home renovation shows with DIY Network.
