  1. Speaking of GA, the word is out that an abbreviated season next fall will wind up the series. George
  2. When he got tired of dancing alone, he'd look in the mirror: "Gotta find a woman gotta find a woman gotta find a woman gotta find a woman". He looked up at her and said: "Sock it to me sock it to me sock it to me sock it to me sock it to me sock it to me sock it to me sock it to me! " George
  3. The Caine Mutiny Fred MacMurray The Absent-Minded Professor George
  4. 12 Angry Men Henry Fonda On Golden Pond George
  5. "Alley-Oop" (covered by about a dozen bands)? George
  6. This one may be a little tough, unless you watch a lot of sci-fi/fantasy TV: Holly Marten Charlie Bradbury Kinga Forrester George
  7. Green Arrow meets Highlander. George
  8. One show, one answer. Until it was surpassed by the Simpsons in 2004, this was the longest running comedy series in American television history. The lead character was ranked #21 in TV Guide's list of the "50 Greatest TV Dads of All Time" (20 June 2004 issue). After it was cancelled, the series was replaced (time slot) by "Batman." George
  9. Six Pack Barry Corbin Urban Cowboy George
  10. That's all I've got. Unless Human or Raf chimes in (or some lurker -- where's Hiway29 when you need him?) I think it's time to turn over all the cards. George
  11. This one seems VERY familiar. In fact, I think the lines were more spoken than sung. But the rest of the song isn't coming to me. George
  12. H) Heckle and Jeckle occasionally featured Dimwit Dog. Is that whom you mean, here? George
  13. Except that, according to WW, Sylvester was a FOX in this cartoon... George
  14. Interesting that the one you consider most obscure is the one I recognized immediately. A) is "Tom Terrific." D) I believe, is "The Katzenjammer Kids." A couple of the others seem vaguely familiar, but I have no guesses. George
  15. It is not. It is. The full scorecard: Hosted by LA local Gene Weeds, this show was frequented more by girl groups than the other shows. Also notable was a young (obviously) Teri Garr as one of the dancers. Syndicated, 1965-1966 Shivaree This Dick Clark show was different in that the locations were all outside: beaches, parks, etc. It featured a lot of the heavy hitters of the day: The Byrds, The Who, The Shangri-Las, James Brown, Bobby Rydell, The Zombies, Dusty Springfield, Marvin Gaye, the Kinks. The "house band" was Paul Revere and the Raiders. ABC, 1965-1967 Where the Action Is NBC's entry into the field had a bigger budget. That meant nifty prop sets (like, say, The Mamas and the Papas singing amidst a bunch of bathtubs and pipes) and a rotation of celebrity guests to handling the hosting, acts like Sammy Davis, Jr. and Petula Clark. The show was filmed at 30 Rock studio 8H -- later home to Saturday Night Live. 1965-1966 Hullabaloo This ABC show had later luminaries Glen Campbell, Billy Preston, and Leon Russell in the house band. There were a number of Beatles appearances and the only televised version of Little Eva performing "Locomotion." 1964-1966. Shindig More info here: Rock and Roll TV WW is up. (From the clues given so far, I would only have known #2.) George
  16. Identify one, correctly, to take the round. (I personally remember watching three of these shows.) Some added detail, though I doubt it will help: Hosted by LA local Gene Weeds, this show was frequented more by girl groups than the other shows. Also notable was a young (obviously) Teri Garr as one of the dancers. Syndicated, 1965-1966 This Dick Clark show was different in that the locations were all outside: beaches, parks, etc. It featured a lot of the heavy hitters of the day: The Byrds, The Who, The Shangri-Las, James Brown, Bobby Rydell, The Zombies, Dusty Springfield, Marvin Gaye, the Kinks.

  17. I actually DID check the full cast listings. Twice. Somehow I missed RW. My bad. We'll just save Jude Law for another day. Awakenings DeNiro Men of Honor George
  18. It is "Carry On, Wayward Son" by Kansas (AKA Dodge City?) It is often used on the show "Supernatural." It may seem as though it's been around 20 years, but it's only been 13. (And it was almost cancelled after 5!) George
