Thia show is pretty well-known.

"You made me swallow my gum! That's going to be in my digestive tract for seven years!" "Wait! We're fighting over Ramona?" "Didn't you get my email explaining the situation? "I skimmed it." "You will pay for your insolence!" "He punched the highlights out of her hair!" "We are Sex Bob-Omb and we are here to make you think about death and get sad and stuff." "Amazon.ca! What's the website for that?" "Amazon.ca. " "You broke the heart that broke mine." "Well, if my cathedral of cutting-edge taste holds no interest for your tragically Canadian sensibilities, then I shall be forced to grant you a swift exit from the premises... and a fast entrance into hell!" "What kind of tea do you want?" "There's more than one kind?" "We have blueberry, raspberry, ginseng, sleepy time, green tea, green tea with lemon, green tea with lemon and honey, liver disaster, ginger with honey, ginger without honey, vanilla almond, white truffel, blueberry chamomile, vanilla walnut, constant comment and... earl grey." "Did you make some of those up?"

"But what makes you think that the people will follow YOU?" "Because-unlike SOME Robin Hoods- I can speak with an ENGLISH ACCENT."

Travel around the world in pairs, and each week the slowest pair is eliminated, with a million dollars on the line, with all sorts of stunts and tasks awaiting the pairs at every stop? Yes, this is a popular show, and it's had local spinoffs filmed by Canada and Australia. What's this show's name?
-
The Matrix.
-
Part of my problem is that most of the shows I like are obviously not watched by the posters here, and probably aren't popular all around. I'll think harder and get something up here.

In case he's wrong, SHELLEY WINTERS???

How about "Miracle on 34th St"?

"Billy Jean." -
The Triangular Trade referred to the stops in Africa, the West Indies, and the future US colonies to get rum, and "Molasses to Rum to Slaves" is the full name of the song. I thought about all this the last time I watched the movie of the musical. (Last year- I haven't sat down to watch it this year yet.)

Young Matt Murdock saw a truck about to hit an old man, so he shoved the old man clear. When the truck crashed, a cylinder it was carrying- with radioactive materials- struck him across the eyes, and, in essence, mutated him. The son of boxer "Battlin' Murdock", Matt later learned martial arts from Stick. Stick's order frequently clashed with ninjas known as The Hand. In the stealth ripoff, someone left a pet store with their purchase, and was walking on the sidewalk when they saw a truck moving erratically. A young man pushed an old man clear from being hit head-on. Unfortunately for that young daredevil (what else would you call him?), a cylinder from the back of the truck was thrown clear and struck him in the head. The cylinder continued to fly, and struck the case of baby turtles the purchaser was carrying. The 4 turtles and the cylinder both ended up falling into the sewers. They (the turtles) were found by a rat that had been raised by a martial artist, and somehow mutated on his own. This rat's name was SPLINTER. He raised the 4 turtles, and taught them what he'd picked up imitating the sensei. When they turned out to be intelligent, he used a book on art he'd rescued from a storm drain to come up with names for the turtles- Leonardo, Donatello, Michaelangelo, and Raphael. Occasionally, they clashed with a group of ninjas called "The Foot." That was the black and white comic book origin of Eastman and Laird's "TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES." (The panels were reprinted in the main gamebook for their pen and paper RPG, "TMNT and other strangeness.") In the cartoon, a lot of that changed. There was no truck and young man event. There was no sensei raising a rat- Splinter was a sensei who was transformed into a rat. And the 4 turtles with red headbands got different colors to tell them apart more easily (although they still all used different weapons- Leonardo had 2 swords, Michaelangelo had nunchucks, Donatello had a staff, and Raphael used the sai.) "Teenage mutant ninja turtles- heroes on a half-shell! Turtle power!"

Considering the actual answers, that's pretty close. They found tea and MOLASSES on board. They dumped the tea, and they kept the molasses..... which was used to make rum! There was a sequence of trade. Kidnap Africans as slaves, dump them onto farms, grow molasses, bring the molasses to the 13 colonies, process it to rum, then ship the rum to the UK. In this case, they kept the rum and drank it themselves (hardly the first time they'd drunk rum...) George's turn.

That reminds me of something.... "FIRE ON THE MOUNTAIN," by the Grateful Dead??
-
Memorable moment from "the Avengers", aka "Marvel's Avengers Assemble" depending on what country you're in, since the UK was worried "the Avengers" would confuse people looking for John Steed and a companion like Peel or King.
-
No, the singer/songwriter was entirely responsible for that one. Thinking it's about people getting together and being happy, how about this being "THE BRADY BUNCH"? That theme song is iconic, if game shows are to be believed.

(BTW, R&R, in this thread, we usually add more roles if the first round doesn't get answered. Hints tend to be used after several tries, or if there's few roles and they're all up-and usually, nobody can guess who it is anyway. I had a problem like that with FRANK NELSON, since everybody knows his voice and his face but few people remember his name.)
