FYI: When one or more players does particularly well in a trivia subcategory, I will frequently challenge them personally with increasingly difficult questions from the same subcategory. So far, I have stumped @unassuming in Happy Days only once.

Robert Urich - Soap, (Peter Campbell), and Tabitha, (Paul Thurston), 1977-78 TV season - but @unassuming didn't think of this one, so there's at least one more.

Here's a question I asked in an older trivia thread, let's see how good your memory is!

1-Actor who played the same character on 2 tv shows, simultaneously
2-He appeared in all but one episodes of both shows, which means he's a main cast member
3-these 2 shows at one point aired at the same time, that is the 2nd show started 3 years after the first show started


Who?
