Live Poll: Funny Women of Television

@mariojacobs ,

Thank you for changing the period to a question mark.

The video shows the funny women associated with each of the television shows. It would be helpful to people taking the poll to include the names of these women for each of the shows on your list. I realize that this will be a lot of work. But it would make your poll suggestion much better.

@dan_dassow​ I hope I got some names right, actually I think the video is kind of confusing and it includes no names...

@mariojacobs​ ,

From what I can tell, you got the names right. Some shows, like Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In, The Golden Girls (1985–1992) and Designing Women (1986–1993), have multiple funny women. I will review the video and post additional names if warranted.

The Golden Girls (1985–1992)

Bea Arthur, Betty White, Rue McClanahan, Estelle Getty

Designing Women (1986–1993)

Delta Burke, Dixie Carter, Annie Potts, Jean Smart

@dan_dassow​ thank you very much, that's a lot of research.

@mariojacobs​ ,

Fortunately, the list of television series in your list is in the same order in the video. Surprisingly, I immediately recognize all but one of the women in the video, so this only took me around 45 minutes to do.

@mariojacobs​ ,

Thank you for adding the women I listed above. I realized after reviewing the list that I missed the women for these two shows. Both shows are ensemble shows with women over 18 and teenage/pre-teen women.

9. The Brady Bunch (1969–1974)

Florence Henderson, Ann B. Davis,

Women under 18 years old at the time of the series:

Maureen McCormick, Eve Plumb, Susan Olsen

10. The Facts of Life (1979–1988)

Charlotte Rae, Cloris Leachman

Women under 18 years old at the time of the series:

Lisa Whelchel, Kim Fields, Mindy Cohn, Nancy McKeon

@dan_dassow​ thanks, and I added to Bewitched:

Agnes Moorehead, Sandra Gould, Alice Pearce, Marion Lorne

@mariojacobs​ ,

@dan_dassow​ thanks, and I added to Bewitched:

Agnes Moorehead, Sandra Gould, Alice Pearce, Marion Lorne

It's a good idea to add the additional funny women to Bewitched.

It looks like you have all of the "funny women" covered for this poll.
