This show had a single episode with Desi Arnaz. Also appearing in the episode was Desi Arnaz Jr. In effect, he played Desi Arnaz in a few scenes. In the same episode, someone else briefly played Louis Armstrong ("Satchmo.")
Desi himself played Roy Nitti in at least one scene, and spoke as himself. He also did a poetry reading of Lewis Carroll's "Jabberwocky." (Although, the next week, they did not actually have Charo show up to do a poetry reading as promised.) Later, he did a musical performance, both singing and with the conga drum. Strictly speaking, Jr did not play Sr on stage, but for most people, it probably worked out the same. He played Ricky Ricardo, in effect pretending he was Desi Sr playing Ricky Ricardo. There was also a single episode with Carrie Fisher. Who played a sort-of Annette Funicello role in one of those scenes from a beach movie (beach blanket something-or-other.)

I'm not clear what your point is then. I don't think I'm much older than anyone here. I thought the whole point of this game was to stir memories ,and realize-'oh yeah-I do remember that show !' I'm

In the "Jump the Shark" episode of Batman B&B, they go through all of the ways to JTS listed on that website, including having Ted McGinley on! :lol: George

C) The DC/Fawcett character must be Captain Marvel, now known as Shazam. I think the show is Beat Shazam George
