Ok

All in order but for

3. song sung blue, Neil Diamond.
13. Car 54 Where are you?

An early role for Herman Munster,

Impressive Sockster.
Ha ha. Can’t get Neil out of my head now. I do like that song, obvious now I know, but never would have guessed it.

car 54 is before my time, so wouldn’t have got it either. I’ll have a crack at your next lot later on today.
Mary Anne all the way!

Car 54, a vague and hazy recollection of it as a fill in re-run years ago. Probably as popular as that dreadful kiddult friends but 54 has better actors and is better written.

I only got Greenacres because of the reruns. I don’t remember much about it other than the theme song. Vaguely recall there was a pig in it & a blonde with massive cans. Eva Gabour iirc.

The pig was called Arnold. He has a cult following.

No doubt our American friends have set up a church in his honour dial 1900 Mix a lot to donate.

22 was in error as well, but you’re in the right decade. It’s the first line of a chorus. Blondie covered Hanging, but they didn’t write it or were the first to perform it. It’s a hard one. Everything else seems smug.
