Maybe they should have asked if we could name the shows that they starred in as some of the actors I recognized but did not know that actual show that they starred in. I'm amazed that 20% of the respondents did not know who Della Street was, because Perry Mason is one of the most famous and long lasting TV shows of all time. As a matter of fact its on twice daily at MeTV.

There are many that I don't want to admit knowing but my ego won't let me job, so this response is a total shoot on my part. Wrestling fans will understand.

Giving us the names is a bit like cheating. It would have been tougher if we'd been given multiple choices of three and asked who it is or from which show the character was on instead of Yes or No questions.

Which one? Hazel? I can't stand it either (along with many other Sitcoms that originally aired on CBS and NBC)

100% These characters are like family to me.
nerakr 71 months ago
96% similar. But the way it's set up makes it way too easy to cheat. Should've been multiple choice. And #4 is Jill, not Kris.

If you take a second look, you will see that it DOES say Jill and not Kris.
If you had noticed that you might have gotten 100%

Probably was corrected by the MeTv staff in the four months between your comments.

I could not agree with you more about this "quiz". As far as quizzes goes this wasn't much of one at all. It really would have been better if it was tougher.
ETristanBooth 71 months ago
96% similar. I knew all of them except the last one, although I've seen the name before.

Rowdy Yates is Clint Eastwood from "Rawhide"

This has to be one of the dumbest/pointless quizzes on here, ever!
Tony DawnieRotten 54 months ago
Not to 1% apparently.

Who doesn't know Mary Ann Summers? Apparently, a few who live on another planet!
Baldman 71 months ago
If you notice when the sixties characters came up the percentage's dropped.

100%. I'm sure someone below has mentioned it, but the picture of Farrah Fawcett is of JILL Munroe. Kris was her younger sister played by Cheryl Ladd on the show.
jvf Tresix 71 months ago
Good catch!
djw1120 Tresix 67 months ago
The only problem with that is, the quiz DOES say "Jill" and not "Kris", check again.
djw1120 jvf 67 months ago
BAD catch on your part.
It DOES say Jill, not Kris.
