Who was the very first character seen onscreen in these classic shows?

6/14; had to guess on just about all of these.

5/14 ouch! Worst score ever! But to my defense....I have only seen maybe 2 first episodes, so I mostly had to take educated guesses. Channels just don't show first or last episodes very often.
