4. Correctamundo!

On the 1st one, and close enough on the 2nd (I think it was blue)


As to your question about El Camino...I don't know her name. (Was she on The Jeffersons?

[VGNonly]

5. Marla Gibbs

she was the maid Florida. She's 95.

14. Florence

Florida Evans (Esther Rolle) was JJ's mom on Good Times.

Close, though!

2. On MASH, what was Frank Burns hometown?

[quaint]

3. Fort Wayne?

What state is that in? Did I confuse Wayne Rogers?
Excuse me, I haven't slept recently...

6. Frank was from Fort Wayne IN.

Trapper was from Chicago. Remember Adams Ribs from Joliet Station .

7. Hawkeye, not Trapper John, ordered the ribs from "Adam's Ribs"

(He forgot to order the Coleslaw)

"And for our entre tonight, we have liver or fish"

[VGNonly]

9. It's been a long time since seeing that episode.

I had in my mind that Trapper knew of Adams Ribs.

In the very early episodes, Hawkeye was not from Maine. What state?

[boonecreek]

16. Vermont.

IIRC that was in the first "Dear Dad" episode.

[VGNonly]

17. Yes Vermont.

If I remember correctly Hawkeye also had a sister and perhaps a living mother, in others episodes he said he was an only child and his father was a widower.

I saw Alan Alda at a talk and book signing. I saw Jamie Farr and shook his hand in Toledo.

[VGNonly]

18. A river of liver and an ocean of fish!

[ProfessorGAC]

12. Joliet Station

As that's the city in which I grew up, that bugged me because there were no restaurants at the train station until the 1990s.
They got the addresses & the direction the streets ran wrong in The Sting, too.
That bugged me, too.

(The show won 16 Emmy Awards)

10. F-Troop?

[red dog 1]

11. Nope, good guess though.

(It's a recent TV show)

[JoseBalow]

15. I don't watch much recent TV, I like the old shows

Hmm... I'd guess Columbo, but he was one-eyed, not crossed-eyed.

[red dog 1]

19. Another good guess.

13. Emergency! Paramedic John Gage has a poster of what in his locker?
