All looks right except the bonus round. Whoever said “Love American Style” had it right. “Happy Days” started as an episode on that show.

Not sure about “Gunsmoke” either. It certainly didn’t span five decades. “Star Trek” isn’t right because that started in the ‘60s and ended in the ‘60s...hmmm.

I agree with you on number 7, LOL!

And I loved Max Headroom, but that was an 80’s show.

Great job, thanks for playing!
