...why all these shows in the 60
s have the title of the show be the name of the main ACTOR? And yet the CHARACTER'S name in the show is somewhat different? I just don't get why they had to use the actor's real name, like Mary Tyler Moore in "The Mary Tyler Moore Show", in the title and
slightly change her name in the actual show. Maybe it's just me, but I find it odd.
I was wondering the same thing! The only reason I can think of is that they were trying to attract viewers by naming the shows after well-known actors..but its definitely odd.
