Can you put the many shows of TV icons in chronological order?

Lucille Ball, Andy Griffith, William Shatner and many more starred in shows across different decades.

HIC was her last show, but I'm looking for a '90's show that starred someone mentioned in this quiz!

You're talking about "Bob," aren't you?
cperrynaples Jeremy 36 months ago
Yes, Bob was first a comic book artist, then a greeting card writer! Betty came on in season 2 where she was more Sue Anne than Rose!

Here's a really tricky question: 2 of the stars mentioned in this quiz worked together on a variety show in the mid '60's! Name the stars and the show! Hint: the third star of this show was a woman named Caterina Valente!

Lol I never would have guessed that. Thanks for the reveal though.

I know Monty Python very well and a huge fan. I think we have had conversations about MP. I know I had sent a silly olympics clip months back. I think you have mentioned having the collection though.

Yes, and the song was something she recorded over 60 years ago! You'd be surprized how many young people are inspired by old music!

Yes an impressive bio on her.
