Kudos to John Hardly, Tedham Porterhouse, Charcloth, Naemanson, and Jeri! Especially Charcloth...I didn't think anybody would remember "My Mother, the Car"! And bravo to everyone else who knew. Jeri, don't apologize: I know the words to all of them! MMario, thanks for the great links! But I'd go with the answer that THRUSH doesn't stand for anything...something in a spinoff book doesn't count, in my book!

Just for ease of reference:

1: The Beverly Hillbillies
2: Gilligan's Island
3: Secret Agent
4: The Mickey Mouse Club
5: The Patty Duke Show
6: F Troop
7: Mr. Ed
8: Car 54, Where Are You?
9: My Mother, the Car
10: The Addams Family

Thanks for playing, everybody!

Aloha,
Mark
