Can you put these shows in chronological order according to when they take place?

Do you know the time periods for these military comedies, nostalgic dramas and Westerns?

Television series that take place in the past are largely, well, a thing of the past. A new miniseries might cover a specific event or time period but long, multiple season historical shows aren’t getting as much airtime as they used to.

Westerns made up a majority of classic TV period pieces, of course, but there were also historical military sitcoms and nostalgic family shows.

We’ve grouped together various shows that take place in different time periods. Can you put them in chronological order according to when they are set?

I got the James Garner shows and Irwin Allen shows wrong. No problem; I'm not all that familiar with Mr. Garner's TV history, and I don't really care for Irwin Allen's stuff anyway.

8/10 Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea aired in the mid 1960’s, however, some episodes begin with a graphic saying they are in 1980.

8 /10 for me. A few were lucky guesses by using their names to roughly estimate their time periods. Kentucky Jones, is he related to Indiana Jones?
