Where To Watch
How many obscure classic sitcom characters can you name?
True fans can't forget these minor characters.
Any old TV fan can name the stars, but it takes a sitcom expert to have an eye for memorable minor characters.
Here, we've pulled a dozen obscure TV characters from hit sitcoms we all watched, from the 1950s to the 1980s. All of these characters appeared only a few times over each series run.
Think you can name them all? Don't be fooled: Each question asks you to choose from other characters who also appeared on each show.
Only the most attentive sitcom fans can score 10/12. Good luck!
