9. Kip? No wait, Kip was name of car right? KnightRider.
10. John, no uh, I meant Larry!! hee hee! Three's Company
Nora
Not too shabby! Kudos to both of you. We have so far
#1 is Johnathan Higgins from Magnum, PI.
#3 is MacGyver. (Did he even have a first name?)
#5 is Natalie Green from Facts of Life.
#6 is Dukes of Hazzard, but it's not Roscoe.
#7 is a Smurf. Um, we didn't call him "Gay Smurf," Nora. LOL.
#8 is WKRP in Cincinatti but the character was not played by George Carlin.
#10 is Larry Dallas from Three's Company.
Looks like the odd numbers were easier than the even ones. Still looking for 2, 4, 9 and the correct character from 6, 7, 8. The car from Knight Rider was KITT, not Kip. You have Napoleon Dynamite on the brain!
That's right! HA! It was KITT.
...but, I still love technology
1 Higgins- Magnum PI
2 Wasn't it the helicopter from
Riptide?
3 MacGyver - MacGyver
4 "Mother" - The Jeffersons
5 Natalie-Facts of Life, better
known as Debbie from my work
6 Anus- Dukes of Hazzard (yes, I
know I said Anus)
7 Gay Smurf (Like Nora said)
8 Guy from WKRP in Cincinatti
9 Steve from Ronaldo's Playhouse
10 Larry from Three's Company
Yusuf
Yusuf -- very good!
#4, oh, of course, The Jeffersons! I missed that one.
#9 don't remember that show at all.
Mom
Pink helicoptor: Riptide. Joe Penny and Perry King, pilots. Produced by that guy who did Magnum, The A-Team, and the Rockford Files. The two over the hill beach bums shot stuff (I think they carried AK-47s in the helicoptor) and had a nerdy sidekick who knew everything about computers.
This was, I believe, the first SUV.
And that's George Jefferson's mother, not Aunt Esther, you old beady-eyed fool!

PS, I think in the final episode they revealed McGuyver's first name was Cosmo.

I'm impressed some of you remember Riptide (1984-86).
Cosmo? Are sure you're not thinking of Kramer?
I'll post answers in a few days.
ANSWER KEY
1. Jonathan Higgins - Magnum, PI.
2. The Screaming Mimi - Riptide.
3. MacGyver - MacGyver.
4. Mother Jefferson - The Jeffersons.*

I just realized that I was supposed to participate in this trivia game..... I was so busy that week, I never had a chance to look. But I did play in the other trivia games.
