I thought the quote made it too easy, but it didn't if we had no one following the show.
Green Arrow, of course, has been around since 1941, which is a long time for a character.
Of all the DC super-heroes, the only ones to make it all the way through the 50's were Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, and, believe it or not, Aquaman and Green Arrow!

Right.
The campy "Space Ghost Coast to Coast," where Space Ghost interviewed live personalities (who often had no idea what was going on), was the beginning of Cartoon Network's "Adult Swim."

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

No, but a good guess.
The star of this show (he of the "No brag. Just fact." quote) also starred in "The Real McCoys."

No.
One last clue. The show's title character is never seen, only his father and his son (as the main characters).

The following might be overheard, if some stoner or somebody ran into a certain title character
on the street...
"Dude, you rock! It's about time you got your own television show!
You're too cool to just be a supporting character, even if a different actor was in the other show.
It's not like you haven't been around for a very long time or nothing.
Best of all is how you keep saying
'You have failed this city!' "

"Arrow" (The "other show" would be "Smallville.")
After years in the intergalacttic super-hero business, this character later had his own late-night talk show.
