Can you I.D. these TV characters who share the same name?

Try not to give characters you love a bad name.

 
Every show has its own cast of unique characters, but over time, we've seen a lot of last names get repeated. Here, we take stock of some of our favorite overlaps in surnames we saw on TV from the 1950s to the 1990s.

Here's how to play: Below, find photos of TV characters. We'll tell you the last name we're looking for, and it's up to you to pick the one character who does NOT share that same name.

Try to make it through the quiz without giving any classic TV characters a bad name. Good luck!

  1. Find the TV character below whose last name is NOT: Grant
  2. Find the TV character below whose last name is NOT: Burns
  3. Find the TV character below whose last name is NOT: McCoy
  4. Find the TV character below whose last name is NOT: Taylor
  5. Find the TV character below whose last name is NOT: Feeney
  6. Find the TV character below whose last name is NOT: Douglas
  7. Find the TV character below whose last name is NOT: Rogers
  8. Find the TV character below whose last name is NOT: Robinson
  9. Find the TV character below whose last name is NOT: Stone
  10. Find the TV character below whose last name is NOT: Hogan
  11. Find the TV character below whose last name is NOT: Tanner

I enjoyed seeing both Danny and his son appearing on "That Girl".
I was surprised that after not seeing it for decades, "That Girl" is still funny,
even fresh. I had forgotten in it's last season that Marlo was famously sans bra
as she had embraced women's lib.

Missed #12. I never knew Fred's last name. But I remembered Shirley's last name was Jones. 'Doh'.
