From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tony Longo (born August 19, 1961) is an American actor who has appeared in many well-known television series such as Laverne & Shirley, Simon & Simon, Alice, Perfect Strangers and Monk. His film credits include, but are not limited to, Pound Puppies and the Legend of Big Paw, the 1994 version of Angels in the Outfield and The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas.
Because of his 6'6" 300 Lb frame Longo is often chosen for roles that depict him as an imposing giant with freakish strength, and sub standard intelligence, such as Mad Dog in the 1980s comedy/drama 1st and Ten where he was a defensive lineman for the fictional football team the California Bulls. Mad Dog was paired with fellow lineman Dr.Death played by actor Donald Gibb who has had a career playing similar roles as Longo.
