The Hillbillies themselves were Buddy Ebsen as the widowed patriarch Jed "J.D." Clampett; Irene Ryan as his mother-in-law, Daisy May "Granny" Moses; Donna Douglas as his daughter Elly May Clampett; and Max Baer Jr. as his cousin's son Jethro Bodine.

I dunno if I ever knew that.

then Samantha had a brother because Tony and Angela were together throughout the show and when it ended. And I'm pretty sure Jed was Jethro's legal guardian, so he and Ellie May were like brother and sister. I think all 3 picks are fine, but technically maple leafs was right.

No, Jed was Ellie May's father and Jethro's uncle, though he took care of them both.

Like I said, I think all three picks are fine. All three were non traditional family systems, but within the dynamic on the show, all three were basically siblings.

Yeah I agree completely.

MikeVic · 01-19-2009, 02:01 PM

There's still two picks out there that HAVE to be made!!

Raiders Army · 01-19-2009, 02:12 PM

10.7 POW Camp (Hogan's Heroes) - Location

Raiders Army · 01-19-2009, 02:14 PM

Ah, I see everyone picked bad guy, so I am safe to say I should've picked COL Klink as my bad guy instead of Joy Turner, but oh well.

cartman · 01-19-2009, 02:18 PM

Please tell me larry and DeTox sent in lists. I am SO ready to announce my pick, and revel in the inevitable glory.

DeToxRox · 01-19-2009, 02:31 PM

I am here brah

cartman · 01-19-2009, 02:32 PM

w00t! And I see larry is viewing the thread.

larrymcg421 · 01-19-2009, 02:34 PM

I sent in a list, but I see the doc hasn't picked for me yet, so I'll review and make sure my pick hasn't gone.

Danny · 01-19-2009, 02:37 PM

Four of us here, we will just need Karl to come on to finish this up.

larrymcg421 · 01-19-2009, 02:38 PM

10.8 Ethel Mertz, I Love Lucy - Best Friend

Lucy and Ethel were a great team. In fact, perhaps the most memorable I Love Lucy moment doesn't even involve Desi. It is the chocolate factory scene where Lucy and Ethel fall behind schedule as the conveyor belt starts moving too fast for them to keep up.

DeToxRox · 01-19-2009, 02:39 PM

10.9 - Santas Little Helper, Simpons - Pet

cartman · 01-19-2009, 02:40 PM

Ok, I'm giving people time to sit down, to prepare themselves to fully understand and appreciate my pick. Coming up...

larrymcg421 · 01-19-2009, 02:41 PM

Uh oh...

MikeVic · 01-19-2009, 02:41 PM

Nice pet pick.

BrianD · 01-19-2009, 02:42 PM

You better not fail to deliver.

MikeVic · 01-19-2009, 02:42 PM

Vicki's already taken cartman.

Danny · 01-19-2009, 02:43 PM

Both Ethel and Santa's little helper are good picks this late.

Danny · 01-19-2009, 02:44 PM

It's taken too long, Cartman's last pick has been removed from the draft.

Maple Leafs · 01-19-2009, 02:45 PM

That pick sucks, cartman.

Maple Leafs · 01-19-2009, 02:45 PM

Suprised nobody took Sideshow Bob.

larrymcg421 · 01-19-2009, 02:46 PM

Prediction: He will pick God/Jesus from some show that had him as a major character.

Danny · 01-19-2009, 02:46 PM

You just ruined my last pick, I was going to take him as brother.

MikeVic · 01-19-2009, 02:46 PM

As the sister?

cartman · 01-19-2009, 02:47 PM

For my final pick, I go into the category of 'sister'. This is another definite outside the box pick, but in the realm of sitcoms it makes perfect sense. My pick is:

10.10 Buffy Wilson, Bosom Buddies - Sister

This character is the 'sister' to Tom Hanks' Kip Wilson, when he needs to keep his female identity in place, and not get kicked out of the all-women's hotel where he is staying. This construct was a key reason the plot was able to work. Plus, it gets Tom Hanks on my team.

larrymcg421 · 01-19-2009, 02:47 PM

Oh I didn't know he was picking sister.

MikeVic · 01-19-2009, 02:49 PM

That's an OK pick. I'm still waiting for a couple of picks though!!

larrymcg421 · 01-19-2009, 02:49 PM

Clever, but I was expecting some controversy. No one will be cussing you out over this. Disappointing.

Dude, no one is going to pick from DeGrassi Junior High.

Danny · 01-19-2009, 02:50 PM

10.11 Cory Matthews, Brother - Boy Meets World

One of my favorite shows growing up.

Maple Leafs · 01-19-2009, 02:52 PM

I would have used Hanks as the alcoholic uncle from Family Ties.

No not that show!

MikeVic · 01-19-2009, 02:52 PM

Not bad brother pick too.

MikeVic · 01-19-2009, 02:52 PM

Can I just mention who I am shocked isn't picked?

after Karl picks, sure

MikeVic · 01-19-2009, 02:54 PM

Hurry up Karl!

Danny · 01-19-2009, 02:55 PM

Karl has pet left, can your suggestions be used as a pet?

MikeVic · 01-19-2009, 03:02 PM

Neither of them can.

Buccaneer · 01-19-2009, 03:08 PM

Lots of good picks, lots of very awful picks.

MikeVic · 01-19-2009, 03:09 PM

I'll wait until the draft is over.

I think it'll be fun to figure out some people that weren't picked.

Bravo. That is an EXCELLENT pick. I loved that show.

Tasan · 01-19-2009, 04:27 PM

The more I think about Boy Meets World, the more I wish I had remembered it. There are some real good characters to use in there.

MrDNA · 01-19-2009, 05:09 PM

TO-PAN-GA!

MrDNA · 01-19-2009, 05:12 PM

Er... also, spreadsheet updated w/ everything except Karl's last pick

Karlifornia · 01-19-2009, 06:02 PM

10.12 Salem, Sabrina The Teenage Witch-pet

Salem was a rogue wizard punished to living 100 years in the form of a cat. Sabrina. He was always willing to give Sabrina and her aunts advice, usually involving the use to spells. Voiced by former ESPN personality Nick Backay.

mckerney · 01-19-2009, 06:04 PM

The reason everyone failed the housekeeper category:

DeToxRox · 01-19-2009, 06:05 PM

Kudos to Karl for start and ending the draft with shitty picks!

cartman · 01-19-2009, 06:06 PM

woot! Now we can talk picks that we thought should have been made.

I really thought someone was going to take Lurch in the Butler/Housekeeper/Nanny category.
