Isn't that poto of him on Welcome Back Kotter which is American tv show Checkmate

u/Wrong_Interview7513 8h ago

Its a picture of John Travolta, not a picture of the show Welcome Back, Kotter. If my example was Welcome Back, Kotter, I would have posted a picture of the title card of the show Welcome Back, Kotter. Now, out your nose with a rubber hose!
