Howdy there swmobuffalo, it’s good to see you!
You did great, first 5 are correct, and a couple in Round two are right. WOO HOO!
Oooops! Number 1 is close, very close!
Knight Rider should be changed to The Six Million Dollar Man.
Number 1 is The Carol Burnett Show, not Mama’s Family.
The last one is NOT MASH. It certainly was NOT on for 5 decades.
Okay, now let’s try round 2...
1. I’m going to agree with swmo, even though I’m not sure. The Waltons.
2. Happy days spun off Laverne and Shirley and Joanie Loves Chachi. One show made it, and the other...well...
3. Lee Majors, of Big Valley fame, starred in the wildly popular Six Million Dollar (in 1970s non-inflation-adjusted dollars) Man.
4. The slow-talking Dennis Weaver was Sheriff McCloud from Taos, New Mexico.
5. Another Dennis Weaver vehicle, this has to be none other than Gunsmoke; the series brought us Doc, Kitty, Festus, and the quintessential good guy, Marshall Matt Dillon.
I’m going to read some of the bonus answers before I provide mine...
No.1 the Carol Burnett Show
2 second round is Arnold and The Fonz. I am not sure what the last of round 2 is.
Tim Conway and Harvey Korman starred on Mama’s Family? they were occasional guests on the show... at least Harvey Korman was... i don’t remember Tim Conway on Mama’s Family when it became its own show off of the Carol Burnett Show... i say the answer is The Carol Burnette Show... btw—it turns out Tim Conway was not really a full-time cast member on the show until the last three years... this was mentioned during the reunion special... many people think he was always a member of the cast...
Lavern and Shirley and Mork and Mindy... (and Joanie Loves Chachi)...
p.s.--my mom has always had a crush on Dennis Weaver from McCloud!
