Bad economy felt on the street

According to Ricky Gervais...everyone on the show gets paid, except for him...

Yep, that's Gordon!!! And even funnier is this review of the DVD of this particular blaxploitation movie, 1974's Willie Dynamite.

I'm a man of simple pleasures, and they don't come simpler than watching a popular children's television star play a foul-mouthed pimp who parades the mean streets of New York in the gaudiest clothes imaginable, keeping his stable of "bitches" in check with a violent temper and a stockpile of dope.

Shortly after Roscoe Orman lit up screens as money-grubbing, fashion-conscious pimp Willie Dynamite, he moved on and settled down on a distinctly different kind of street—Sesame Street. While in Willie Dynamite, Orman threw competing pimps out of his tricked-out Caddie and explained the economics of prostitution to ungrateful call girls, he can now be seen every morning as the genial Gordon, teaching basic math to a six-foot tall bird, and promoting the virtues of cleanliness to trashcan-dwelling Muppets. Quite simply put, one of these things is not like the other; one of these things just doesn't belong.

On the bright side, if the cutbacks on the street go any deeper, at least Gordon can fall back on the experience he has in a, um, different line of work. Can you dig it? 8)
