Clint or Ron: A Howard hoedown

Tell us which brother played the part!

 CBS Television Distribution

One was the "Gee, shucks," All-American Opie Taylor. The other was Balok on Star Trek. Two very different men from the same family in the same business of show. 

Clint Howard. Ron Howard.  Can you distinguish their parallel, equally impressive careers? We'll name a role, you tell us which brother played it! Bonus points if you can name other Howards down in the comment section below (and no, we don't mean Moe).

10/10 I guess at most of them. Just couldn’t see Ron Howard in the shows/movies that were mentioned.

Clint was also in Night Shift with Henry Winkler. Fun movie.

"You got 2 out of 10 You should've gone with Clint, the superior Howard." No he wasn't/isn't!! Number 10 said "Correct! IT'S ALL CLINT HOWARD, BABY! What a rigged quiz. He has nowhere near the talent or success of his Older Brother! ----- I got 6 and 10 correct.

They liked peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

Trick question, I never even heard of most of these movies! They could have at least thrown in a couple of movies that Ron Howard did star in, like American Graffiti or The Music Man. Most older people would "get it", but not everyone in the world has seen those movies.
Clint was also in TICKS.

8/10 If I didn't remember the movie I thought maybe Ron Howard did a quick cameo. MeTV, you got me on this one. Wished they had Clint as Eaglebauer from Rock "n" Roll High School
