After giving up and looking up the answer on #14 about Fox TV, your question should be " What were their first 2 PRIME time shows". They have listed another show as their first show, but it wasn't in prime time!

14.. Fair enough. What were the 2 prime time shows that began Fox TV?

ERROR Let #17 read, Who rode off after 6 seasons?

 

[VAUConnFan]

14. Married With Children, The Simpsons

16. Sardinia

17. Pernell Roberts who played Adam

19. Thurgood Marshall

20. Schesinger

21. Hooks and Chavous

24. It was equaled by Russell Westbrook; averaged a triple double in a season.

 

[VAUConnFan]

20. Should read Schlesinger. Still not sure of the spelling, but the gist of it...

 

[ed4ourgirls]

16. Libya

 

[FairView]

16..Albania
17..Adam aka Purnell Roberts
18..He continually pushed a boulder up a hill, only to have it roll down again when he got it to the top. So he had to start over again. It's a hell of a way to spend eternity. I hear he's still doing it. Some say he originated Rock & Roll. Okay, I'll stop.
19..Thoroughood Marshall (sp?)
20. I know schlessinger directed Midnight Cowboy.

 

[KnightBridgeAZ]

23 - I know its a battle thingy, but don't remember anything else. WWI maybe? maybe not. But Canadian troops.
25 - Paul von Hindinberg. I don't know if that's right, but he was the President that appointed Hitler Chancellor.

 

[wire chief]

14..Yes, 98 & VAUC give us half (but no to Simpsons). The 2nd was The ______ ______ (comedienne) Show.

15..Trust rbny to know old quality tunes.

16..SVC & Fair provide Albania.

17..VAUC & Fair breathe easy that I admit my mistake.

18..Hey, it's important to note that the damn rock rolled down the hill again. Only Fair does this.
He's boulder than the rest of you.

19..Though now Fair meshes Marshall with rocker George Thorogood. That won't do.
If 4 others can spell Thurgood, why can't you?

20..Oh, you guys mean ARTHUR Schlessinger, the historian? Well, if you mean John, say so! Sheesh.

21..VAUC has both leaders.

22..Newcomer Mcfly does what the rest of you didn't. Shame on you veterans.

23..Knights is a tad sketchy, but accurate. Betcha our Kia was taught more details.

24..SVC & Meyers most accurate.

25..Have no doubts, Knights, have no doubts. He also blew up over Lakehurst NJ

Anyway, all that's undone is 1/2 0f #14
