"Puny god!" George

That must be Michael York's character in the Austin Powers movies, but I can't think of the character's name. George

He was, indeed. George

Sorry. It might be a song I heard often but never paid attention to the lyrics. Not ringing a bell, at all. George

It's also possible I missed it, because I don't understand it. Let's try -- Deadpool? George

Like a number of shows, over the years, this show was originally broadcast on one network, and then picked up by another. The main character's designation comes from old slang, meaning to refuse service to a customer. The name of one of the main characters is never given, even after she marries the main character. George (did I do this one already?)

Boys, boys! Don't make me come over there!

Don't know it, either. As for King Crimson, this was the first mention of them, for me, in forty years. I remember my college roommate talk about them. George

Wild swing Willie Wonka? George

Fine, but you still didn't give the answer. :-) FAYE DUNAWAY FREE POST! George

Maybe this one will be open for three weeks, too. :-) George

I would tend to agree with WW, here. For instance, the characters of NCIS appeared in an episode of JAG, but the purpose of that episode was to introduce the new series. (One of the JAG regulars, though, has recently appeared in a few episodes of NCIS: LA. Still, I wouldn't call that a spin-off.) On the other hand, I don't blame Human for using IMDb's lists. It's not as if one of us is going to peruse all of TV history to make up his own list. Anyway, it's a new year, and a FREE POST. Anyone up for it? George

I would have thought that Bonnie Parker (as in, "Bonnie and Clyde") and Laura Mars were giveaways. The others are names of her characters in her more famous movies (not necessarily with her as the star), so I doubt that running up any others, from obscure films, would help. If no one gets it by tomorrow, I'll give the answer and toss it up. George

Not sure what that means, but you're up! George

Correct! George

I knew it was one of those British blokes... Wanna tell about my baby Lord, you know she comes around About five feet four From her head to the ground George

I think the title is "Jean," but I can't remember the artist. Oliver, maybe? George

"Run if you will, to the top of the hill" sounds familiar, but I can't place the rest of the song, at all. George

How many spin-offs did Happy Days have? I can think of Joanie Loves Chachi, and I think there was one about Al's Diner; but that's only two. The Mary Tyler Moore Show had at least three (Phyllis, Rhoda, and Lou Grant). George

Ariel, listen to me. The human world is a mess. Life under the sea is better than anything they got up there. George

I'm not sure that sequels count as spin-offs, so Star Trek probably isn't on the list. I'm thinking that the Mary Tyler Moore Show and All in the Family are there, maybe M*A*S*H. On the serious side, maybe Law and Order and CSI. I Love Lucy had a number of variations (Here's Lucy, the Lucy Show, etc.); but again, I'm not sure they count. I can think of a few other shows with a couple of spin-offs, but these are the ones I know of with at least three. George

Along the same lines... Possible spoiler here, but in the "mid-season finale," Supergirl gets beat up by another Kryptonian. Again, you have another Kryptonian, TWO Martians (maybe three -- I forget where M'gann is, currently), and a Daxamite to help out*; but none of them help, nor does Supergirl ask for them. Now, Supergirl does appear to be going through an "It's me, and me alone" phase, but I would think at least J'onn would show up, whether called upon or not. George *We haven't see Imra Ardeen display any powers yet, but having a strong telepath involved might have been more useful than the others, combined.

Since a main reason the Nazis invaded Earth 1 was to get Supergirl-X a new heart, SOMEONE had to have more than a passing interest in her, and since there was no apparent Monel-X, why not Oliver? Your point about CC and the Ray fighting the Nazis because they were gay makes sense. I just thought they did it because they were good guys. As for Alex/Sara, I was actually happy to see Alex's remorse, basically telling Kara, "No, it's NOT OK. I'm not that slutty." (I would have felt the same way if it had been a heterosexual booty call, as well.) George

Interesting guess. This actress is more recent that LB, though not a newcomer, by any means, and far more well-known for dramatic, rather than comedic, roles. Vicki Anderson Evelyn Mulwray Lady Barbara Skelton Helen Barton Serena Joy Marilyn Mickler Mae West Edith Birnbaum Ariana Kane Diana Christensen Kathy Hale Laura Scofield If no one gets it from these, I'll add the giveaway roles.
