i missed the year that "Three's Company" came out, it is a shame that we lost John Ritter. He was a great actor

Great quiz A+ You know you are getting older when you saw the original program not the re-run.

Technically, Bob Newhart's character in the show "Newhart" was also a psychologist, really. After all, that entire show was just a prolonged dream sequence by his character in "The Bob Newhart Show." (That is, according to the show's finale, when he wakes up in bed with Emily and describes the amazing dream he had just had.)

I did horrible on the 80's one, yet the one I should do even worse on I get a 70% on. Really Fun rating, because the Three's Co. question ticked me off. I know everything about that show, but you ask about the date!
