5 out of 10.
9 out of 10, including a few guesses. Lost on the final one!
7/10... I just saw that episode of Adam-12 a couple of weeks ago and spotted John Wamsley and little Butch Patrick in the same storyline.
8/10
Missed the Richard Thomas question. Can't watch war movies.

I played a cop on an episode of Ralph Waite’s short-lived series The Mississippi. Very nice man.
10/10 Had to guess on a couple of them, but I guessed right.

Loved the episodes of St. Elsewhere with Michael Learned as a nun, trying to have another sister disconnected from life support after a car accident. Great show and very moving storyline. She was very convincing as a mother superior, even though she's so well-known for one role.
0 out of 10. Didn’t really like the Waltons
0 is actually impressive
9/10 which really surprised me. It was more detective work than actually seeing those episodes.

Nine out of ten. I guessed wrong on Ralph Waite.
On Number 10 I've watched all three shows and I don't recall Norton's appearance. I was able to get it right mainly by elimination (the background was contemporary and the character she was talking to didn't look like they fit in one of the choices).
