I stand corrected- Fonz and the gang, traveling in a UFO from space with an alien named Cupcake-my memory of this junk said 'outer space'-but yeah it was time travel-with no Potsie-I wonder how Anson Williams felt about losing out on that easy pay

It's still your turn since you posted the last correct answer.
I only see 2 photos, but I'd say voice actors for the Simpsons.
I apologize for missing my turn earlier. I don't check in daily, and tend to forget. Maybe it would be better if I didn't participate.
I don't know what happened to the pictures of Dan Castellaneta, Harry Shearer, Hank Azaria, or Nancy Cartwright (they were there yesterday); but, you got it nonetheless. Hopefully, you'll check in soon! :)
It is 'Thriller'-and if you haven't seen it, you've missed some darn good tv. Of course, like all anthology shows, there are winners and losers, but when Thriller was clicking, it was genuinely frightening.
If I were to pick one Thriller to start with, I'd say 'The Hungry Glass', starring an extremely young William Shatner. I think youtube has some of them in whole or in part.

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

"The Honeymooners" spawned "The Flintstones," which added Dino, and (maybe) "The Jetsons." (?)

That's how they landed on "GILLIGAN'S PLANET."
I sh* you not.
Fonzie and the Happy Days Gang traveled in TIME.
The Brady Kids stayed in the present.

Ok, while we're waiting....
TV game shows have hosts asking questions of the contestants...
but this TV game show also had the host answering the questions alongside them!

"Ben Stein's Money"?

WIN Ben Stein's Money,
but yes, that's the answer.
In round 1, 3 contestants answer questions.
At the end of round 1, the lowest-score contestant is kicked out,
and Ben Stein takes their podium (and their score is added back to the kitty.)
Whenever a contestant gets a question right, their total goes up towards $5000,
and the kitty-Ben's total- goes down from $5000.
When Ben gets a question right, his total doesn't change but the others
don't get it.
At the end of round 2, the lower-score contestant is kicked out,
and their score is added back to the kitty.
Round 3 is "the best of 10." Ben and contestant are placed in isolation booths.
The contestant can choose to go 1st or 2nd.
Each is asked 10 questions in (I think) 60 seconds, and can "pass" and come
back if there's time.
If the contestant loses, they get the money they won so far.
If the contestant ties, they get the money they won so far plus $1000.
If the contestant wins, they get the $5000-
which is handed to them as cash. Ben's safe (pushed onstage at the beginning
of Round 3) is opened, and Ben counts off the money in each result.
When someone wins the $5000, Ben generally adds after the full count
"I hate you, get out of here!" because it was money otherwise going to
Ben's pocket.

If you check at least once a week, you should be fine.
We're all busy, but can check in every few days for a minute or 2
unless we're having some emergency or traveling.
And I see 2 photos, and 2-3 notices above them about posted images that aren't there for me.

the same twisting staircase was used over and over-in multiple houses-
that won't help much unless you watch several episodes of the show
what might help is the host-who is not wearing his famous monster make up

Boris Karloff's "Thriller"?

Sounds like a good guess. I'm pretty sure that Legosi and Chaney didn't have TV shows; I suspectd that Karloff might have, though I don't remember it.

I've heard of it online.
Perhaps I'll find some episodes of it some time.

Apparently, some episodes are on YouTube, including that one.
I'll catch some in October if not sooner.
Ok, next show....
This live-action show spawned a cartoon that put the characters into the future...
and the cartoon was often mislabeled as being in space instead.
(Even as a small child, that bugged me...)

Bumping this up. I could use another clue. :)

Apparently, the idea was to make a Jetsons spinoff, but the studios didn't
want that, so the concept was retooled to use a current family sitcom
and only use 1 kid for his own character's voice.
They didn't even bring them in for their own musical numbers!

That pretty much narrows it down to two. Since "The Brady Bunch" didn't really do musical numbers until their post-series specials, I'll go with
"The Partridge Family."
