It's So Hard to Get Good Help

Name the helpers or assistants in each of the following:

  1. Name the servant/houseboy in "Bachelor Father."

  2. Name the valet in "Charlie Chan."

  3. Name the housekeeper in "The Courtship of Eddieâs Father."

  4. Name the governess in "The Farmer's Daughter."

  5. Name the ranch hand/cook in "Fury."

  6. Name the maid in "The Jetsons."

  7. Name the maid in "Make Room For Daddy."

  8. Name the ranch hand in "My Friend Flicka."

  9. Name the ranch hand in "The Real McCoys."

  10. Name the cook in "Wagon Train."

(NOTE: The original answer for #10 given by General Bumble was "Mushy." This apparently inspired Pus complaints. Bumble soon admitted that multiple versions of "Wagon Train" may have caused confusion, and besides, "Mushy died." And so "Cookie" was also accepted as a correct answer. With 5-points-or-nothing Hour Bonus scoring in effect, apparently this concession had no impact on any team's score. The odd thing is that the character listed in "The Directory to Prime Time Shows" is neither Cookie nor Mushy, but "Charlie Wooster.")
