Is this an episode of The Dick Van Dyke Show or a Dick Van Dyke movie?
Do you know the difference between "Fitzwilly" and "The Twizzle"?
Dick Van Dyke has always been equally at home in movies and television. During and after starring in his own show, he acted in many big-screen comedies, most notably Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and Mary Poppins. But many of his films weren't quite so fantastical and dealt with the same themes as The Dick Van Dyke Show.
We've mixed together Dick Van Dyke Show episode titles with the names of his movies from the 1960s and '70s. Can you tell the difference between the two?

15/15! I cannot WAIT to meet my all-time hero, Dick Van Dyke, next week in Phoenix. I am 16 years old and have loved him since I was like 4. He is, to me, the gold standard for entertainers. He is my idol, my favorite actor, and I just love him. God bless you, Mr. Van Dyke. You will always be my favorite.
Dick Van Dyke did a very out-of-character and wonderful performance as a killer in the episode "Negative Reaction" of Columbo.
13/15 Big Max Calvada and the Twizzle tripped me up.
The titular character in "Big Max Calvada", a mobster played by Sheldon Leonard, was named after the name given to the production company for the series, which was derived from the last names of four principals...'Ca' from Carl (Reiner) 'L' for (Sheldon) Leonard, 'Va' for (Dick) Van Dyke and 'Da' for Danny (Thomas).
"The Twizzle" was about a dance craze that combined the Twist and the Sizzle and was introduced on Alan Brady's show. This episode has a hilarious ending where they talk about another new dance craze, the Twassle, which combined the Twist with wrestling, and none other than the great Fred Blassie made a cameo to demonstrate it!
