What tv show is associated with a character named Guido Scalici?
Answer: WKRP in Cincinnati episode "who's on first"
In this episode Johnny Fever owes money to a guy after having taken part in a poker game. Problem is he doesn't have the money. He owes the money to a guy named Guido Scalisi, who in turn sends one of his thugs, "Dave", to the station to collect. When Dave confronts Fever, Johnny tells him he's Andy Travis and that Andy is his fictional brother Randy. Needless to say hijinx ensues. I always thought that was the perfect name for a mobster.

This is a question for people of a certain vintage(read: old farts, like me). The great news journalist/broadcaster Walter Cronkite only physically appeared in 2 tv shows that were either comedy or drama(ie. not news, documentary, or voice only). Please name them.

Keeping along the same lines, who was Vito "the big knife" Machete?

I didn't know answer, so I looked it up, he actually appeared physically in 3 tv shows not 2.

I'm sure you're right. Let's wait and see if any answers come in. I tried to emphasize comedy or drama, as in non-reality. Perhaps I worded it poorly.

Total guess but I'll bet he appeared on Murphy Brown.

Very good, shack!!!
In this episode Wojo's girlfriend made brownies for everyone in the detective's room. She didn't tell him there was hash in them, and those who ate some got stoned. A hilarious episode.
