It’s actually been explicit on Young Sheldon that the Coopers are Baptist, although whether they are American Baptist, Southern Baptist, Independent Baptist, or what has never been specified.

I may be wrong, but I’m pretty sure that “Born-Again” is a theologism, and not a denomination.

  7. Chesterfield Sound Off Time

Chesterfield was a brand of cigarettes.

“Sound-Off Time” was a live, half-hour variety series with Fred Allen and Bob Hope alternating at hosts, and not very successfully. However, on December 16, 1951, “Sound-Off Time” aired the pilot for “Dragnet.” The broadcast garnered “Sound-Off Time’s” best rating. It’s sponsor, Liggett & Myers Tobacco, promptly dropped the comedians in favor of the cop. – Anonymous
