Subject: TV “Supporting character” quiz #2 (1960s to 1990s TV) COMPLETED
Written By: warped on 06/03/13 at 12:26 pm
Welcome to my 2nd television show “supporting character” quiz.
You name the character (first OR last name) for ½ point, and the TV show the character was on for another ½ point. In many cases the character was on most episodes, they just weren't the main character on the show.
Once again, you might recognize the face and say “but, this person was a guest star on so many shows”. Yes, they might have been, but each person here had a recurring role on a TV show (meaning they were in more than 1 episode of that TV show) I haven't seen every TV show in the world, so I hope a few aren't confusing. :D
Note: I am not looking for the actors/actress real name, just the supporting character’s name they played on the show.
These characters are only from American TV shows, except for 1 Limit removed now

Oh, I KNOW you know Degrassi. And I figured you would know it right away. But my reasoning was: I thought you were gonna save it for last because no one else knew it, so more points for you in the end. Makes sense?
I thought you would chose the easy ones first.
