Can you guess which TV scenes were actually filmed in the 1970s?

Separate the iconic 'Mary Tyler Moore' from the stylish nostalgia of 'Mad Men.'

Every year seems to bring a new wave of 1970s nostalgia, and television is no exception. On popular hit shows like That '70s ShowMad Men, and The Deuce, you can spy some of your favorite '70s fashions, from the threads the actors wear to the decor of the rooms they saunter into. That's because these shows are set in the 1970s, and the scenes are shot to make it look as retro as possible.

But how good of a job do these new shows do when it comes to depicting this seminal decade? 

You be the judge. See if you can tell the difference between select scenes from shows that actually aired in the 1970s — like The Bob Newhart Show, The Brady Bunch or The Mary Tyler Moore Show — and the ones that aired much later, but were designed to take place in the 1970s. 

Take the quiz below and see if you get transported back to your favorite era.

Far out! We can dig your sense for separating authentic 1970s scenes from the shows that can only hope to imitate the original.
