Where To Watch
Can you match these Easter episodes to the correct shows?
The years and character names are a big hint! Hop to it!
Television loves a good Halloween episode, Thanksgiving episode, or Christmas episode. But Easter episodes are few and far between. That likely has something to do with the calendar, as many shows traditionally are wrapping up their seasons around Easter.
Still, there have been some memorable Easter tales told on classic TV. The 10 below are the bulk of them from the 1950s through early-'00s.
We'll give you the title and a plot description. Pay attention to the years and character names! Try to guess the show!
-
"Three on a Porch" (1975): Richie, Potsie, and Ralph think they have rented a cabin at Lake Whitefish for the Easter holiday, but find out instead that they have only rented the porch of the place.
-
"Private Charles Lamb" (1974): When the unit is invited to share an Easter meal with a Greek unit, a kind-hearted member tries to save the main course… the lamb!
