Can you name the character who was played by both of these actors?

Sometimes it takes four feet to fill a pair of shoes.

 

You can't keep a good character down.

Below, we are going to show you pairs of television stars. All you have to do it pick the one character they both have played at some point. 


Careful: we're including cartoons, films, radio programs, reunion movies and TV shows. And we're not necessarily going to show you them playing those characters — because that would be too easy. Good luck!

Alas, you did not know these well. To be fair, we were pretty sneaky.

9/11. I missed #1 and #10. I didn't watch any of the shows involved in #1; I have absolutely no excuse for #10.

I'm always getting the last question wrong. I forget that in one episode, Mary Ann bumped her head, and she began thinking that she was "Ginger", and so Ginger had to pretend to be "Mary Ann" for a while until the real Mary Ann recovered. Oh well, that's what I get for not watching these shows on "ME-TV" and keeping up with them like I should. You can all go ahead and yell at me for that if you like. LOL!!

That had nothing to do with it. Dawn Wells voiced Ginger Grant in "Gilligan's Planet". Don't you read the answers after?

I had no idea that most of these shows had reboots in the 90’s. Was to busy in the nineties defending our country in the military. On another note, my MeTV signal keeps blanking out every ten seconds every singal day during every show. What’s going on?

Here's one: What role did Edgar Buchanan (Uncle Joe from Petticoat Junction) and Paul Newman both play?

This was TOUGH! I got TWO out of the eleven: Calamity Jane, which was a lucky guess based on deductive reasoning; and Cat Woman, which I just knew.

Wow, that last one was a stumper because I never watched Gilligan's Planet.......................10/11

10/11. Guessed wrong on #1 as I had no clue.

10/11. Had no clue that there was a reboot of Fantasy Island. Never heard or saw it. Who played Tattoo?
Bobbo Donald 74 months ago
Alas, Tattoo was not in this reboot. I believe TPTB felt that Tattoo could not be replaced.

Didn't Mary Ann "play" Ginger the time she bumped her head and thought she was Ginger, and Ginger had to pretend that she was Mary Ann?

I thought that as well!

But that wasn't the answer they were looking for, because, technically they were both themselves. They mean Dawn Wells voicing Ginger for "Gilligan's Planet", actually portraying Ginger...not portraying Mary Ann portraying Ginger.
