The "Am I Old?" Test

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
81

I know all of them. I’m 73. BIG fan of the Muppet Show.

82

I knew all of them except Mummenschanz. And I’m only vaguely aware of The Muppet Show. 65

For those who did not recognize Charles Aznavour (most famous as a singer), I recommend one of Truffaut’s great films that he stars in: Shoot the Piano Player.

83

Everybody but him. Just shy of 70, and I actually rarely saw the Muppet Show.

84

19 for sure

50+

85

21 of 24. Just turned 58. And I believe they were all guest stars on The Muppet Show.

86

20; I’m 69

~VOW

87

I got 3. +2 if I include names that I only just recognize (Charlie Sheen, Ben Vereen, shrink to the size of a lima bean!). I’m 44.

88

15 @ age 43, but I’m an old soul.

89

I know all but two fairly well. I mainly remember Juliet Prowse as the romantic interest for Elvis in “G.I. Blues” (on and off-screen).
75

90

And don’t forget Jim Nabors

91

I’m 60 and recognized 17. To show you just how 70s era tv watcher, I recognized most of them from Match Game, Love Boat, and Fantasy Island. And possibly Merv Griffin

92

I got 23 out of 24 (Bruce Forsyth again.) I didn’t recall any of them from The Muppet Show except for Mummenschanz. I know I’m old because I remember Juliet Prose from a forgotton sitcom called Mona McCluskey.

93

I’m 68 and live in the UK.

94

I’m 45. I recognize 8 of them well enough to name something they’ve been in or have been famous for (Twiggy was a model and Ethel Merman swam) and I’m sure I’ve heard of 2 more though I’m not sure what Connie Stevens or Phyllis Diller are famous for.

95

Wouldn’t that be Maurice Chevalier?

96

58, and all but Charles Aznavour and Bruce Forsythe. I see there is unanimity on the source, but that source was not something I engaged with, pretty much ever.

97

Ditto, but age 65.

98

I know all but two. Age 57.

99

Seven on the level of “I’ve heard that name before.” Five, I think, I could name something they’ve been in. Im almost 47.

100

Unless I missed someone the spryest young whippersnapper that has identified their age so far is 37. Damn, we’re old :grinning:. I still vaguely remember when we had a very few teenagers posting on this board. Back in the 1930’s, I think it was.
