8/10 I missed #2 and #3. I'm not that good with names of characters, and especially ones that are not important.

7/10 and I said it a year ago and I say it now Jerry Van Dyke was a can of nightcrawlers left in the sun as an actor - be it DVD or TAGS or MTM

And now they started a Daily Star Trek quiz. I don't know anything about those episodes. Just some general knowledge of the characters.

I'm really going to miss this 😔 I felt like I was getting together with friends every day to talk about one of my favorite shows. It was great to see all of the opinions about the episodes.

Same here Miss DaniRosa 🤗
It was a real pleasure to make your acquaintance 😊
Agree. We will have to get Carl Benson's Wildcats to play at our reunion.

8/10
I didn't care for Jerry Van Dyke when he was playing these "sad sack," woe-is-me type of characters.
He played a similar type guy on an episode of Gomer Pyle USMC.
He was much funnier(to me) when he was just a clumsy, goofy guy like on Coach, or playing the travel agent manager who goes kind of nuts on an episode of Newhart.

I agree Zip. Loved that show "Coach" Craig T. Nelson is one of my favorite actors. Jerry Van Dyke was great on the show. He was also on his brother's show, "The Dick Van Dyke Show".

Please keep the quizzes coming. Go back to the beginning-season 1 with different questions
Dysall Calhoun1959 13 days ago
Or start quizzes on the color episodes.
I would enjoy the challenge

I thought that Jerry VanDyke as the one man band was hysterical when he bashed his head to work the cymbals. Funny episode

9/10. The names always get me (Robie).

Jerry shoulda kicked the crap outta that circus owner. He not only was fired he was owed 3 months back pay.

I got 10/10, but have to admit this is my least favorite black and white episode.The only ones that come as close to being bad are the Fun Girls episodes. Oh well, not everyone can be a gem.
FredGoss88 Bookman1963 14 days ago
I'd say "Opie's Rival" and "Prisoner of Love" are worse...by a mile.
Calhoun1959 FredGoss88 14 days ago
Prisoner of Love was at the very bottom in my opinion
JHP Calhoun1959 10 days ago
but I liked her bottom:)
