PUZZLERIA! SLICES: OVER (1110 + 98) SERVED

Welcome to our February 16th edition of Joseph Young’s Puzzleria!
Our featured puzzle this week is another excellent wordplayful Appetizer contributed by our friend Patrick J. Berry (screen name: cranberry) of Jasper, Alabama. It involves a singer, sitcoms, movies, married couples, and a talk show host. ’Tis a veritable “Roll Tide” stickler about role players.  
Also on our menus this week are a QUARTET ⇩⇩⇩⇩ of “Let’s play doctor” Riffing-Off-Shortz-Slices;
ONE ⇩ “Let’s play the name game” Slice; and
ONE ⇩ “Cabinet fever” Dessert.

So, TGIF: Think Good, It’s Friday. 
And, TPFI: Thank Patrick For Inventiveness. 
As puzzlemaster Will Shortz once said, you can have a lot of fun 😊 on the Puzzleria! blog.

Appetizer Menu

Casting Connubial Couples Appetizer:
Sitcoms on Satcoms and silver screen stars

The two lead characters in a 2010 movie share their first names with two lead characters in a popular long-running current TV sitcom. Both pairs of actors portray married couples. 
Drop a letter from the sitcom-wife-character’s last name, then rearrange the letters in her full name to get the full name of a female singer who gained popularity in the 1980s. The husband in the movie admits to his wife that this singer is the object of his sexual fantasies. 
The movie and the sitcom both have two-word titles, and both stars (★★)  in the movie also had lead roles in their own sitcoms. The female movie actor helped create and has occasionally made cameo appearances on a sitcom starring an actress who was also a castmate of the male movie actor in his sitcom. 
One more thing: Change one letter in the movie title, and you’ll get the name of the talk show franchise originated by a host who would later switch networks. 
Shortly before he retired (but subsequently came back looking much different, and appearing in a different format), the movie actress surprised him by doing something to ensure that “this would be the last time (she would) have to really dress up for a talk show.” 
★ What are the titles of the movie and the sitcom? 
★ What are the characters’ full names in both the movie and sitcom? 
★ Who is the singer? 
★ Who is the actress who has worked with both movie leads, and what shows are these? 
★ What talk show was it, who was its host, and how did the actress in the movie surprise him?

Name Game Slice:
Charles Charles bo-barles, bo-na-na fanna fo-farles, fee fi fo-farles...

Think of five people with the first names Charles, Hayden, Mia, Ryan and Samuel. If you have the right five you ought to be able to tell what they all share in common. 
What is it?
Hint: All these people are sufficiently well-known to have Wikipedia pages.  
“Brian” could be substituted for “Charles,” if you like.


Riffing Off Shortz Slices:
Amazing Grace Anatomy 

Will Shortz’s February 11th NPR Weekend Edition Sunday puzzle reads:
Name part of the human body in six letters. Add an R and rearrange the result to name a part of the body in seven letters. What is it?
Puzzleria!’s Riffing Off Shortz Slices read:
ONE:
Delete the final letter of a seven-letter word for a part of the human body. Reverse the order the fourth, fifth and sixth letters to form a three-letter synonym of the word formed by the first three letters. What is this body part?
TWO:
Name part of the human body in seven letters. Subtract an R and rearrange the remaining letters to form names for two creatures  with very similar shapes. What body part is this? What creatures are these?
THREE:
💃 Name part of the human body in seven letters. 
💃 Subtract one of the consonants that appears twice in the word and rearrange the result to name a part of the body in six letters. 
💃 Remove the final three letters from the seven-letter body part to name a four-letter body part. 
💃 Finally, remove from the seven-letter body part four letters that can be rearanged to form a synonym for “story.” Rearrange the remaining three letters to form a body part.
What are the seven-letter body part, the six-letter body part, the four-letter body part and the three-letter body part?
FOUR:
(Note: Do not attempt to solve this puzzle before or during dining... or while ingesting food of any sort!)
Name part of the human body in six letters. Add an R and rearrange the result to name a part of the body in seven letters. 
The first four letters in each of these body parts can be rearranged to form the same vulgar four-letter term that is associated with one of the body parts. 
What is this vulgar term and what are the two body parts?

Dessert Menu

Quemoy And Diplomatsu Dessert:
Henry Cabinet Lodge?

Name a member of a United States president’s cabinet who served sometime during the 20th century. Add a letter within the first name to form the name of a country.
