Jamboree 2021 - Unit 12 - Decades!

Jamboree - Unit 12
May 25, 2021

Decades!

All correct answers are worth three points.

FADS & CRAZES
1980s

The rise of these colorful, mini leather, kickable beanbags started in the 70s, but gained national popularity in the early 1980s.

At the peak of their popularity in the mid-80s, these seemingly unattractive dolls were a must-have toy for Christmas. Riots occurred as parents literally fought to obtain them for children.

An Oscar-winning actress gets on the floor mat and shows the world her exercise regimen. Leg warmers and spandex were not optional.
Name the actress turned exercise guru.

KINGS & QUEENS
1970s

A Middle Eastern royal, who took over the throne in 1952, marries an American named Lisa Halaby in 1978.
Name the Middle Eastern country.
Provide his royalty name.
Provide her royalty name.

COMING & GOING
1960s

A popular comedian hosted (or co-hosted) the Academy Awards every year from 1956 through 1962.
He was replaced in 1963 by a famous singer of Italian descent who had *alleged* ties to the mob (I said *alleged* so don't come for me).

Name the comedian/host.
Name the singer.
Special Co-Host Bonus: Which animated character appeared on film alongside the Academy Awards co-hosts five years earlier?


BEFORE & AFTER
1950s

In the early days of television, reruns of episodes were sold into syndication with alternate titles to distinguish the reruns from first run ("new") episodes if the series was still running in prime time television. When a popular police procedure TV show (produced and starring a handsome and talented MM on this Bored) went into syndication, it was renamed for the "shield number" of the handsome and talented main character. Got all that, you guttermouth punks?
Name the original show.
Name the syndicated re-title.
Name the handsome and talented star.
Name the handsome and talented TV cop.
