#7: On television it was always spelled Burger, but in some early prints of the early Perry Mason novels the name is indeed spelled "Berger."

"C for Carl; K for Kolchak" -- I can't think of any of these other characters who actually spelled their name for us on the show! :)

10 out 13. Can't believe I got the MASH, Star Trek and Charlie's Angels questions wrong. Three of my favourite shows.

10/13.I can't believe I got Aunt Bee wrong and Ralph Malph right! I really don't deserve a pickle,unless your talking about one of Aunt Bee's "kerosene cucumbers".😋Good idea for a quiz.👍

I think they are wrong with Aunt Bea. It's not Bee it's Bea for Beatrice, her name is not Beetrice. Check your facts MeTV

Nope, Her name was Aunt Bee. Always was. Blame her mother.

according to the show producer......her name WAS Beatrice.....but the B in Aunt Bee was the SPELLING of the letter, not a shortening of her name.....so BEE is correct.

13/13! Fun fact: 11 was 2's father!
richardkel cperrynaples 62 months ago
12/13. I know he played the father on Happy Days, but was he the father in real life?
leebillyold richardkel 62 months ago
Not in real life, if you mean, Tom Bosley or Howard Cunningham?
cperrynaples richardkel 62 months ago
I was talking about Jack Dodson, he was both Howard Sprague and Mr. Malph!
anthony cperrynaples 62 months ago
The Dentist.
No, he was not a Dentist, he was an Optometrist.

That's *Mickey* Malph to you!

(Or, apropos of this quiz should it be spelled "Micky" or "Mickie"?)
