there was Dukes of Hazzard which I think spun off Enos, or whatever his name was, but I can't think of a third, unless they changed the name od the Duke show at some point.

I don't recall all the details-what I do remember is Bobby Sherman's character -Jeremy?- felt unworthy to be in love with the girl who's name I forget. She told him it didn't matter,but he found some combo of self esteem psycho something-and I think a speech instructor to 'cure' him. He then became all full of himself , hitting on all the 'brides', causing his girlfriend to dump him. I do recall an emotional scene in a rainstorm-he and the girl are caught in a bad storm, and she finds his stutter has returned after she dumped him. He became humble again, they got back together, and the stutter was a thing of the past, as his photo hit the covers of all the teen mags. Haven't seen the episode since it first aired-that's the best I can do.
-
an interesting fact-Bobby Sherman's character had a severe stutter in the early episodes of Here Come the Brides. When he quickly became the latest teen heart throb, they had to remedy that, and built an entire episode out of him losing his stutter.

Rowlph wasn't the first Muppet, but he was the first famous one. The Muppets had been around for some time. Henson had a popular local show, and did lots of commercials with them before Rowlph. I'm pretty sure I can get your next clue but am too busy to think right now.
-
he wasn't the star, but as far as I was concerned, it was the Rowlph show. The real star could keep on selling sausage as far as I cared.
-
that was the magic clue-Bill Cosby. The show I liked was when he was the gym teacher. The Fat Albert cartoon was better than most at the time. Somehow I found his big show boring. liked I Spy too-if only for the dynamics between Cosby and Culp
-
ok,there's a clue that has me thinking again.
-
I can't overestimate how out of touch with TV I was in the 80's and 90's. This one is lost on me.
-
this is a good question-I'm blanking on the answer, but I'm working on it without resorting to google -gotta figure anything that lasts 8 seasons I have to at least know about.
-
Bea Benederet played the mother of Jethro Bodine (and his sister Jethrine-Max Baer in drag) in the first season of BH. She was such a major character that they moved her out to Beverly Hills and she was even grouped with the family waving bye at the end of the show.
-
right on Sam Drucker. I know you'll know the woman. She played one character on the earliest show, then starred as another in a later show, then passed away while it was still in production.
-
Paul Henning had 3 comedy series in the 60's that were all successful. They also existed in the same world, and it became common to have a character from one show appear in another. The quiz question concerns two characters. The first was a woman who was a regular in two of the shows , but played 2 different characters. the other was a character who seemed to be the common link between the 3 shows, and ran a popular local business. if the questions seem vague, it's because I'm writing on the run.
-
George,I remember the show, but not the title. It was mid 80's wasn't it ? I think it was on USA or one of those cable channels. I think the title was a wrestling term but it escapes me.
-
Lee Meriweather was the attraction for me, though she rarely got out behind the console and lab coat. She was used better on this later show where she teamed with Jed Clampett.
-
I'm struggling to come up with a new show, feel free to take my place if I can't.
-
"The Time Tunnel' a show I always wanted to be better than it was. I later learned that Irwin Allen didn't want strong interesting characters, or sophisticated looks through time. "This is a run and jump show" , which pretty much explains the problem with most Irwin Allen shows.

most of the faithful people in the areas I lived in were just getting by on bad paying, ever changing, low level type jobs. When someone needed to get their sponsorship together, they'd work her way through these people who could barely keep their own life intact. For years I was one of those people-it's another topic why I wasn't getting my life and career in gear-but I was doing the every night commitment, and being told to be thankful for my crummy day job because all work is honorable. Apparently missing a session of pfal which I'd heard 25 times, to devote some night work to myself was not honorable. Anyway, these poor apprentice corps would hit everyone up-literally nickel and diming it. Early on I caved under forceful personalities, and did my best to send 10 bucks here and there. I finally raised my standards. If someone I hardly knew, or I really had nothing to do with asked me, I learned to say no. If it was someone who I felt genuinely had blessed my life, and I had a genuine relationship with, I was happy to support. That didn't happen very often. It never bothered me if they didn't make it through. I couldn't see how anyone ever did. To me, it was turning your entire life over ,and I knew I wouldn't have lasted a month.

there are really no other clues. I didn't think a Sally Field show would be that obscure, but I guess I did it again. the show was 'The Girl With Something Extra', Sally is married to John Davidson and has some kind of supernatural power, but it's nothing like Bewitched. I couldn't say or tell just what the power was-it was real murky, which may be a reason the show bombed.Some one else go so I don't derail the game again.
-
this was after Gidget and the Flying Nun-she was married to John Davidson on the show-who had good hair if nothing else.
-
after playing a flying nun, the actress again starred in a show where she has special powers-it just was never clear to me what they were.
-
the Adventures of Superman- for the most part-the good episodes were in the first 2 black and white seasons
-
right,Wordwolf- Tom Bosley and Tracey Nelson play a Priest and a Nun solving crimes-why I have no idea.
-
Richie Cunningham's father and Ricky Nelson's daughter team up to solve things, though they should really be attending to their regular work in my opinion.
-
there were interesting shows in the 80's ? just kidding-I'll come up with something.
-
I'm afraid to say Trapper John MD, since I'll have to come up with a new one if I'm right.
