Yeesh, another score in the 40s. Oh well, I still came in ahead of **brujaja**. At least when he shows up to kick my ass over some formatting lapse or other, I’ll be able to taunt him with that.

The Harlem Globetrotters were on Gilligan’s Island?!?

Yes, but in a [1981 made-for-TV movie,](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082502/) not on the original series.

I guess I can count myself lucky that Scrappy Doo was after my time. But it sure played hell with my score.

[QUOTE=anyrose]  
Since the implication, based on several of the questions, is that this feud focuses on the 50s, 60s, and 70s, I feel the need to point out that several of these characters, while indeed quite cool, did not arrive on the scene until at least the 80s:

Sonny Crockett  
Zack Morris  
ALF  
Dr. House  
Eric Cartman  
Jack Bauer  
MacGuyver  
Magnum PI  
Sam Malone  
Spike (from BTVS)  
[/QUOTE]

Desperate times called for desperate answers! ( :smack: , but I loved Magnum!)
