12/12. Fairly easy quiz. One thing I do want to say about DiCaprio though was I thought it was very classy to attend Alan Thicke's funeral and speak highly of him like the two were that tight away from the set. It shows you what a great talent Alan Thicke was and how much he meant to a lot of people. He seemed like the genuine article.
#12 got me, I never liked Sherman Hemsley because of his role on the blatantly black racist show, "The Jeffersons."

Missed #8.
Never watched 'Dallas', in either incarnation.

Leo DiCaprio was in Growing Pains but he got his start in Roseanne as one of Darlene's classmates in home ec!
Another one that is too easy. I guessed on some answers but in most cases the picture makes it too easy.
I was disappointed when the Dallas reboot wasn't able to bring us a grown up Shalane McCall as Charley Wade.
