John loves classic sitcoms, but he’s particularly crazy about sitcom moms… although he prefers certain ones over others. See, he likes Roseanne Conner, but he doesn’t care for Peg Bundy. And he’s crazy about Marion Cunningham, but not so much for Clair Huxtable. And he definitely likes Shirley Partridge a whole lot more than he likes Carol Brady.

Given these clues, which of these four TV sitcom moms would he like the best? And why? Good luck!

Edith Bunker
June Cleaver
Laura Petrie
Lucy Ricardo

Here is the SOLUTION.

  1. I thought Laura Petrie since she, like the other sitcom moms that he likes, has 6 vowels in her first and last names (I counted the y in Shirley Partridge).

  2. I thought it was the double letter thing until you got to the last one.

  3. i thought he favored ABC network moms until Carol Brady ruined it for me…

  4. Yep – got it on the nose… Of course I thought it was an alphabetical thing (the later of the two in the alphabet, by first name)…

  5. I too thought it was ABC network sitcoms, as all of the prefered TV moms were in ABC sitcoms. Even though “Leave It To Beaver” was on CBS for one season, it spent the next 5 on ABC. So, I chose June Cleaver.

    FYI…
