In "Gunsmoke" how much did a beer cost at The Longbranch Saloon?

[MiHale]

1. On "Monk"...

Which hand did Monk wear his wedding ring?

[rsdsharp]

2. A nickel.

Depending on the time, whiskey ranged from a dime to a quarter.

[red dog 1]

10. Wow! You knew that?

[rsdsharp]

14. Yeah, I'm old, and I'm reliving my childhood five days a week

by watching westerns. Including Gunsmoke.

[Mr.Bill]

19. I do recall one time Festus refered

to a steak dinner that cost "pert near a dollar". The steak looked like it weighed two to three pounds.

[rsdsharp]

20. I don't doubt it. I've seen normal meals cost between

25 cents and 45 cents. A dollar would be a real spurge. Especially for Chester, and probably Festus. Matt paid Chester out of his own pocket; I think it was 8 bucks a month.

[Mr.Bill]

21. The deal was he lost a bet,

I think, and had to buy some guy a steak dinner. The guy was eating it and talking about how good it was. Festus said "It aught to be good, it cost pert near a dollar".

that Klinger always talked about?

[Tripper11]

8. Yes Tony Packo's

I met Klinger in Toledo, nice guy!

11. I think he was my co-favorite judge on "The Gong Show"

(My other favorite was Jaye P. Morgan)

[red dog 1]

13. I also loved Rip Taylor & Arte Johnson on The Gong Show

9. Which member of the cast

of The Waltons was bisexual?

[rsdsharp]

15. Will Geer -- Grandpa. Although I think Ellen Corby -- Grandma -- was too.

Both had been married earlier in life, and both lived with long term, same sex, companions during the show.

[VGNonly]

16. Geer was a leftist activist.

Hung with Arlo Guthrie, Pete Seeger and Burl Ives. He "wouldn't name names" and was blacklisted.

[rsdsharp]

17. Yes, I know, although that wasn't the question you asked.

[red dog 1]

12. How many episodes of Fawlty Towers were produced?

[Harker]

18. Twelve.

Two seasons of six.

[red dog 1]

26. Yeah, there should have been more episodes made.

[Harker]

27. I'm with you on that.

They're timeless for me, but my wife (six years younger) says they're "corny."

22. How did Mike Stoker get cast on Emergency! ?

Hint: Mike Stoker drove the fire engine.

[Angleae]

23. He had a screen actor guild card and could drive the fire engine.

[jmowreader]

24. Two-thirds there...

For the first two seasons, the engine belonged to Los Angeles County Fire Department and part of their contract stated that a qualified firefighter had to be hired to drive it. The only member of the core cast who changed was the captain, so when the company that made the closed-cab engine gave them one as product placement he kept on driving it.

25. Which "MASH" actor played a police lieutenant on "Mannix?"
