I’m going to have to qualify my answer here. If there’s more than a 50-50 split on where my fame and/or recognition derives, I’d go with 60-40 TV, although that hasn’t always been true. Vague enough? For the sake of the summary info, though, I’m going with 50-50.
So, RL is:
Male
Not less famous than his father
Alive
An entertainer
Primarily known for acting
American citizen
Not born before 1950
Equally famous for movies and TV
