The puzzler

There is never enough fun. So here is some more. It's a trivia game.

To get it started, Here are a few questions.

By The Way, looking up stuff on Google should only be used if a sufficient number of people have made incorrect guesses.

First question: How many burners were on Granny's stove after the Beverly Hillbillies moved to California?

Next: What kind of car did Maxwell Smart drive?

Who was the voice for Tennessee Tuxedo?

I know the second one anyway, it was a Sunbeam Tiger, the one with the Ford 260 V8.

??? Don't you mean "Don Adams"?

Oh, and as for the burners, wasn't the answer "one", she did all her cooking out by the ce-ment pond on a bonfire, didn't she?

One and the same for both.

OK Good. Granny had eight burners on the stove in the kitchen.

Maxwell Smart's car was a Sunbeam Alpine. There were a few episodes in which he drove another car. I don't remember that one.

Don Adams was Tennessee Tuxedo.

Here are two Tennessee Tuxedo questions:

What was his pal's name?

On every episode, Tennessee had a different type of job. Sometimes he was a painter, sometimes he worked at the general store, etc. The one thing that was in common, though, he always worked for the same man.
What was that man's name?

Don't remember Tennessee's pal's name except that he was a walrus.

The other car used in the Get Smart series was a Karmann Ghia (poor man's Porche).

Hi Rudy, the car was a Sunbeam Tiger (same car as the Alpine, VERY different engine).

I might be wrong on this but I think Tennessee worked for a guy named Quigley.

As I read this the name Chumley came into mind..but perhaps that was the sidekick for Top Cat?

Here is another question. What was the dogs name on Gilligans Island?

Tennessee Tuxedo's pal was named Chumley.

Still looking for the man's name that Tennessee worked for.

I did not know there was a dog on Gillian's Island. Obviously I don't know the dog's name.

Ok, the man that Tennessee Tuxedo always worked for was Stanley Livingston.

So now for another question: Category, Beverly Hillbillies.
What is the name the family gave to the pool table in one of their parlors?
