10/12. Never watched MacGyver and never heard of Paradise Bay.
I was surprised to see her as a manicurist on an episode of Burns and Allen. She's had quite the career!
You got 10 out of 12
Nothing gets by you! Nice work!
Missed #4 and #12
I feel, I'm an idiot, for missing #4. *Hangs head in shame. *Shuffles off, to Buffalo.

10/12, love Marion Ross..great mom on Happy Days! 💖
Not bad at 9 out of 12! 👍👍👍👍👍 😁😁😁😁😁
Marion was a beautiful woman in her prime! See #7 and #9 for examples of her appearances on shows ("Perry Mason" and "The Donna Reed Show") in the late-1950s. She is now 91 (Oct. 25, 2019), and many more to her!
10 out of 12.
She was also in "Teacher's Pet" with Doris Day and Clark Gable in 1958.

11/12 never heard of Paradise Bay. She was also on an episode of Rawhide.
10 out of 12. The 'trio' question got me, as did the soap opera question.
some hard ones:

They left out that she also played Drew Carey's mother in several episodes of his self-titled sitcom in the 90's.
And she was referred to as "Mrs. C."
8/12
Great trivia--missed only one, " Paradise Bay ". While all of these memorable moments mentioned are good. .where are her two Most memorable appearances on the Absolute Best TV Series of all time: " Hawaii Five--O ". On the episode " Blind Tiger " [ as Edith Lavallo ], a special nurse who attended to Jack Lord's Steve Mc Garrett, after he was blinded by a bomb attached to his car; an iconic episode which truly showcased Marion Ross's excellent dramatic prowess! The second episode: " Air Cargo--Dial For Murder " [ as ' Anita ' ], where she unknowingly gave information { over the phone } to the bad guys which gave them the details of certain shipments they could steal and use for their own nefarious evil ends for financial profit. This episode equally displayed her dramatic expertise; to bad she wasn't equally lauded for her serious acting abilities as much as her comedic attributes. Now come on MeTV, it's way beyond the time that " Hawaii Five--O " has been missing in action on this iconic station! ! !
Hawaii Five-0, with a zero.

While It wasn't a TV appearance, Marion Ross co-starred in Universal's "COLOSSUS: THE FORBIN PROJECT" (1969) which Joseph Sargent directed. this sci-fi thriller about a computer system that was built too perfectly had terrifying consequences for its inventor (Eric Braedon) and our country. a superior movie!
