Default Mork and Mindy marathon on SciFi

Why? Because it is jeep related...

I just walked through the living room and the wife was scanning through the channels and I saw that was on!

I'd forgotten she drove a Jeep!

Trivia question:

Where did Mork first appear?

That Jeep pictured on the box is the actual Jeep, not a picture of the model. Minus one point for you.

Actually it is a 1972 CJ 5 and the model pic is incorrect...

They apparently used two different Jeeps for the show, as I distinctly remember her driving the CJ-7 in a couple of the shows yesterday.

i'm gonna have to say I disagree and give him back a point lol the one in the show definitely looks like a CJ5 and even if it isn't the roll bar is wrong. it had a custom roll bar it looked like to me.

Yes, but the picture on the box is an actual picture of Pam Dawber and Robin Williams in a Jeep, not a picture of the model in the box, so yes, they did use both a CJ-5 and a CJ-7 in the show.

Guess they didn't plan on a bunch of bored Jeepers analyzing the details 30-some years later!
