Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. On "Happy Days" what was the name of the Cunninghams' son who was only in the first season?

Answer: Chuck

The role of Chuck Cunningham was played by two different actors, Gavan O'Herlihy and Randolph Roberts, before it was decided that the role of Ritchie's wiser older brother might be better fulfilled by his streetwise friend Arthur Fonzarelli. Thus, Fonzie's role was expanded and Chuck was never mentioned again.
2. What show was centered on the Banks family?

Answer: "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air"

"The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" was the story of Will Smith and the Banks family. "The King of Queens" centers on the lives of Doug and Carrie Heffernan. "The Royal Family" lasted only two seasons when its star, Redd Foxx, died during the taping of the seventh episode.
3. On which show would you find Alex, Mallory and Jennifer?

Answer: "Family Ties"

Alex, Mallory and Jennifer were the Keaton children from "Family Ties." "Growing Pains" centered on the Seaver family and the Tanner children were on "Full House." Incidentally, Candace Cameron, DJ Tanner from "Full House," is the real-life sister of Kirk Cameron, Mike Seaver of "Growing Pains." While "Family Matters" was about the Winslow family, the most famous character was Steve Urkel, a neighbor.
4. Which of the following actors played Dr. McIntyre on "Trapper John M.D."?

Answer: Pernell Roberts

Wayne Rogers played the role of "Trapper John" McIntyre on "M*A*S*H." Howie Mandel and Neil Patrick Harris also played doctors. Mandel played Dr. Wayne Fiscus on "St. Elsewhere," and Harris played the title role in "Doogie Howser, M.D."
5. Which two actors played Darren Stevens?

Answer: Dick Sargent and Dick York

This question leaves one to wonder if James Bond (played by Sean Connery and Roger Moore, et al) would have found Elizabeth Montgomery as bewitching. Dick Clark is perhaps the world's most famous DJ, while Dick Cavett is best known for his talk show. Both have done their fair share of acting, though. George Hamilton, often parodied for his signature tan, has been acting since the late 1950's. And George Harrison was a Beatle.
6. Name the actor that played both a lovable millionaire and a near-sighted eccentric.

Answer: Jim Backus

Forsythe, Hagman, and Booke all played extremely wealthy characters (Blake Carrington of "Dynasty," JR Ewing of "Dallas," Jefferson Davis "Boss" Hogg of "The Dukes of Hazzard," respectively), but none was as lovable as Thurston Howell III on "Gilligan's Island," nor as eccentric as Mr. Magoo. Backus voiced the title role in "The Famous Adventures of Mr. Magoo" in 1964.
7. What was the name of the dog on "Full House"?

Answer: Comet

Tiger was on "The Brady Bunch." Eddie was the Jack Russell on "Frasier." And Jack was Laura Ingalls' dog on "Little House on the Prairie."
8. What was the name of the movie star on "Gilligan's Island"?

Answer: Ginger Grant

Ginger Grant was the marooned starlet. Tina Louise played the part. Ginger Rogers was a star in her own right - she is best known for her work with Fred Astaire. Ginger Lee played the "900 Girl" in the 1993 film, "The Making of '...And God Spoke'." And Ginger Anglin works behind the scenes.

She was a Special Effects Fabricator with "Scary Movie 3," and worked in the Oscar-winning Make-Up Dept for "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe."
9. What were the names of the identical girls on "The Patty Duke Show"?

Answer: Cathy and Patty

While Patty Duke played the double role of the identical cousins, Cathy and Patty (Lane), Mary Kate and Ashley (Olsen) shared a role as Michelle Tanner on "Full House." Betty (Rizzo) and Sandy (Olsson) are characters from the musical "Grease."
10. On which show did Don Knotts not play a character?

Answer: "Knots Landing"

Don Knotts played Deputy Barney Fife on "The Andy Griffith Show." He played Ralph Furley on "Three's Company." And he was Les Calhoun on several episodes of "Matlock." He was never on "Knots Landing." Having passed away on February 24, 2006, he will be missed.
