'37 years ago today, February 11, 1986, Boy George guest-starred on an episode of "The A-Team. The plot was music-focused: Faceman (Dirk Benedict) has hired the highly touted group Cowboy George and the Range Rats to play at a low-key venue called the Floor 'Em. However, the musician who shows up is Boy George, who's under the impression he's playing the Arizona Forum.
That mistake naturally doesn't go over well with the club, which was expecting a different act ("I booked Cowboy George, and some turkey in a sequined coat shows up") and figures the new waver wearing "eyeball glitter" isn't going to sell tickets. The singer also isn't thrilled with the mix-up, noting with cheerful passive-aggression about the venue, "Excuse me, I can't play this place because it's a certified toilet."
He later comes around, however: After another pointed dig ("This place is really American, but I think people will like us once they hear the music"), he and the rest of Culture Club end up performing two songs in the episode. First up was their current single "Move Away," which eventually became the band's last Top 40 single, peaking at No. 12 on the Billboard Hot 100; later, as the episode ends, the band returns for a spirited lip-sync of the mega-hit "Karma Chameleon."'
