A couple were really tough....................................12/12
Gary Seven would've been a great show if networks just let sci fi shows develop a following they might not get the biggest audience but they are the most loyal.
10/12. Not bad.
I got the same score, dude.
Assignment: Earth was the Star Trek episode shown. It was to be a pilot for a Gary Seven/Roberta Lincoln series that was never picked up. While you'd have to recast it since Robert Lansing is dead and Terri Garr is retired, with the right casting and strong writing, it could still work (I'd give it plenty of distance from the Star Trek franchise to keep fanboys stuck in their mother's basement from screaming "cannon, cannon" and just general bellyaching from the lack of a real life).
9/10 never saw Our Miss Brooks and 😊 Maverick is finally in one!!
It was showing late at night on some network (can't remember if it was Antenna TV or Decades) for a while, but I haven't seen it in a while). It's really a pretty good show with some snap to it. Eve Arden is a hoot (she kind of reprised the character as the principal in the Grease movie).
I remember her in Grease. Thanks, I'll try to find it.
10/12.The 10 I got had nothing to do with recognizing the cat.If fact the two I got wrong didn't have people in the picture.
Too bad they couldn't work in mention of Robert Loggia as T.H.E. Cat.
11/12, missed the last one.
11 out of 12.
12/12nI have a weakness for black cats, although I'm down to just 1 (& he's roughly 17, so I need a refill!).
I adopted 2 black twin boy kittens about 3 weeks ago. I also have a black cat with a small bit of white. She is 11.
Good For You, Wanda!!! And I mean that! Black cats are usually the last to be adopted, if at all. I've had one or two clunkers over the years, but for the most part black cats are so sweet & have wonderful dispositions. Plus, that contrast of pink tongue & black fur gets me every time. Here's 3 plus 2 others who showed up. Ollie - # 5 in the video - is the only one still alive.

Trying again...
I rescued a black cat, at first I thought that she had extra toes so I named her Phalanges, turns out she has 8 feet, two underdeveloped front ones and her back four feet fused together into two wide back paws.
Poor baby. :-( Did she have a good life otherwise? And, thanks for adopting her. :-)
I missed the Munsters because I thought it looked like The Addams Family.
The Addams Family had a pet lion named Kitty Kat.
I loved Kitty Kat, and the dragon you never really see under the stairs.
Spot.
That's right! How could I forget that name. 😂The effects were very good for it's time.
Missed The Munsters, Mr. Lucky and The Brady Bunch. Does anyone know what episode of BB?
Try rereading the question. You will find the name of the episode there.
The guy on the right in Photo 2 is Ralph Manza, who played Banacek's chauffeur
Which question are you talking about?

11/12! Never saw Mr.Lucky.
