Very clever man in real life; played some interesting characters in the Cheech and Chong saga too. I think his performance as Chong is amazing and he was hilarious when he starred in an edition of 'That 70s Show'. It's just a great shame that the real Cheech and Chong parted terms due to Chong quitting his weed habit.
I do apologise; Cheech Marin quit the dope in turn for fame and did loads of voice-overs on Disney films, but Tommy was the one who fell out with Cheech. It cost him though, as he was sentenced to 9 months in prison on 11 September 2003 for conspiring to sell bongs and other drug paraphernalia over the internet. Despite their falling out, Cheech still supported his ex-partner by commenting in the LA Times; 'The administration should hang it's head in shame'.
