Some of these shows are synonymous with the networks they originally aired on...to most people anyways. If you watched these shows in reruns, you might not have that knowledge that others had, so we can't blame you that much!

Right!
You missed some of the really difficult ones, but you got most of the instances of a show being synonymous with the network it aired on. You have a little room for improvement, but overall this was a really impressive showing. Great work!

Some of these shows are from years ago, and you can STILL remember their original networks? Man, you are a television genius. It just goes to show how synonymous some networks become with their most popular programs of all-time. Great job!
