#1 is not Irene Cara but she was a musician. You don't hear this one's name much anymore.

#5 is Flo but the show wasn't called Mel's Place.

Good job with #1 & 6.

#5 The name of the program was "Alice".

I'm a little a late getting here again. I did know Flo from Alice and the lady from Welcome Back Kotter.

# 3 at first I thought might be from the first Stepford Wives or maybe Helter-Skelter - but that's not right. It's Patty Hurst.
The cop is sure familiar. I don't think it's Night Court though.

Only 2 to go! Hints:
#1: Her initials are M&M.
#4: We're a few years too early for Night Court. Don't focus on the character. Focus on what he is and where he is.

Marilyn Mccoo? She sang with Billy somebody -- not Ocean -- Marilyn Mccoo and Billy... right?

Billy Davis, Jr.? She hosted some music talent or dance show too, but I don't remember what it was.

He's a cop and he's in a squad room, Is this the Mod Squad?

Billy Davis, Jr -- yes, they did have a variety show for a bit. Is that #1?

#4 -- "Precinct" something - something "Precinct"?
