Yeah, I think you took the character and I took the show.  

 

[AAABatteries]

I thought this would go as a children's show.  I can't believe it was still there.

If I hadn’t already taken Fraggle Rock I probably would have put it there.  I had to double check the spreadsheet a few times.

[rick6668]

I got tagged so I think it's my pick.

41.5 - In Living Color  - Variety

Who could forget Homie the clown, Fire Marshall Bill and The Homeboy Shopping Network.

In Living Color is an American sketch comedy television series that originally ran on Fox from April 15, 1990 to May 19, 1994. Keenen Ivory Wayans created, wrote and starred in the program. 

The title of the series was inspired by the NBC announcement of broadcasts being presented "in living color" during the 1960s, prior to mainstream color television. It also refers to the fact that most of the show's cast was black, unlike other sketch comedy shows such as Saturday Night Live, whose casts are mostly white. It was controversial due to the Wayans' decision to portray black humor from a raw and uncut perspective in a time when mainstream American tastes regarding black comedy had been set by more upscale shows such as The Cosby Show, causing an eventual feud for control between Fox executives and the Wayans.

Other members of the Wayans family—Damon, Kim, Shawn, and Marlon—had regular roles, while brother Dwayne frequently appeared as an extra. The show also starred several previously unknown comedians and actors, including Jamie Foxx, Jim Carrey, Tommy Davidson, David Alan Grier, and T'Keyah Crystal Keymáh. The show introduced Jennifer Lopez and Carrie Ann Inaba as members of In Living Color's dance troupe The Fly Girls, with actress Rosie Perez serving as choreographer. The show was immensely popular in its first two seasons, capturing more than a 10-point Nielsen rating; in the third and fourth seasons, ratings faltered as the Wayans brothers fell out with the Fox network's leadership over creative control and rights.

The series won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Variety, Music or Comedy Series in 1990. The series gained international prominence for its bold move and its all-time high ratings gained by airing a live, special episode as a counterprogram for the halftime show of U.S. leader CBS's live telecast of Super Bowl XXVI, prompting the National Football League to book A-list acts for future game entertainment, starting with Michael Jackson the following year.
 

I don't think so, Homie don't play that!

I was surprised this was still there. 

Not many TV shows can say they changed the NFL's handling of the Superbowl.

@tuffnutt OTC

 

[KarmaPolice]

Love the In Living Color pick! 

THAT was a weekly watch for me (yep, not SNL).     Loved Oswald Bates, Men on _, and Fire Marshall Bill.

Rd 41- Laverne DeFazio- Lead woman in comedy- 1971-1990

 

 

[Zow]

So, is Rogan fine in play by play, or should I re-pick?

I'm fine with it. I assume the judge will just consider his UFC play by play and none of his other TV contributions. 

 

[AcerFC]

Rd 41- Laverne DeFazio- Lead woman in comedy- 1971-1990

 "One, two, three, four! Five, six, seven, eight! Schlemiel! Shlimazl! Hasenpfeffer Incorporated!"

Laverne Marie DeFazio (Penny Marshall) is known for being a tough-talking tomboy. She grew up in Brooklyn, with her Italian immigrant parents. Laverne's parents moved to Milwaukee, where her mother died. Laverne works alongside best friend and roommate Shirley. Milk and Pepsi is Laverne's favorite drink. Her trademark is the script letter "L" monogrammed on her shirts and sweaters, an idea Marshall got from seeing a vintage sweater in the wardrobe department with an initial sewn in the upper left corner, something that would help the audience remember that she is Laverne.

Nominated for best actress in comedy 3 straight years by Golden Globes

I already selected Lou Grant, so I don’t think you can select the same character. Sorry 

Did you select Lou Grant from Mary Tyler Moore or from Lou Grant?  Two different shows so we thought two different possibilities.  Is that not the case?

41.12 1950-1970 leading woman comedy - Lily Munster

[timschochet]

Don’t think so. There have been several characters picked from two shows already: Phyllis, Maude, Frazier, etc. 

 

[Yo Mama]

Don’t think so. There have been several characters picked from two shows already: Phyllis, Maude, Frazier, etc. 

Yeah, same character so he can only be taken once.
