So, this question is for all of you old enough to have been around for and seen the Tony Orlando and Dawn show.
I am sure there is no clip of it, but I was wondering if anyone can confirm, or has seen, the Telma Hopkins pie-ing from that show. What was the setup? How was the hit?
I've been kind of in a nostalgia mode lately, and this is one from an actress I loved from Bosom Buddies and would like to know what people recall about the supposed pieing from TOaD.
Thank you

Are you sure it wasn't from her co-starring on Family Matters? That show had a lot of slapstick scenes.

there is a famous pied peoples list on wikipedia to my knowledge she was never pied on family matters thry did have an episode where they were making tortes but it was mostly a flour fight.as refering to tony orlando show she is not on the list.

Ok...old guy to the rescue.

This actually happened and yes it was broadcast and it was before my "WAM time"

I was a teenager so I liked pop tunes and so I watched the show.

Tony Orlando often got a pie in the face as I recall. But on this particular occasion it was Thelma's birthday so she was going to get the pie in the face.

From what I remember, she was wearing some kind of mask which took most of the pie.

And that concludes today in pie history. (echo)

Thank you Robbie!
