The only one I missed could almost be considered a trick question. I guessed The Chipmunks vs. The Alvin Show, but I remember it being Alvin & the Chipmunks.

Well, 47/50 is?ÿ something I can't complain about since I guessed on probably 6-7 of them.

nailed it..

Funny thing though:?ÿ I watched almost all of those older programs on?ÿa decrepit?ÿcabinet Zenith B&W (of course) that us boys had rescued from some trash pile and set up in our garage.?ÿ TV?ÿwatching was limited in the garage by the ambient outside air temperature, winter and summer.

My folks?ÿrarely allowed Pop's?ÿTV in the house to be turned on any time except when he watched it in the evenings.?ÿ The first time I ever saw it on during the day was November 22, 1963.?ÿAnd by the time "Happy Days" hit the screen I had kids, a house?ÿand a TV of my own.

My?ÿ3 favorite TV series 'stars'?ÿfrom the early days:?ÿ Jack Webb, Broderick Crawford and Stanley Andrews.?ÿ Without google can you name those three tv shows?

47 out of 50 for me. Not too bad for guessing on more than I got wrong.

They (the chipmunks) started a band that they called "Alvin and the Chipmunks" but that wasn't the name of the cartoon.?ÿ I struggled with that one too.
