  1. I was going to say that they are all sitcom actors.

  2. But we’re asking about the characters; not the actors.

  3. Great quiz! Thanks for once again making walking into work a little less painful.

  4. I got it! They share last names with Presidents. Taylor, Pierce, Jefferson, and whatever Will’s last name was.

  5. last names of presidents! Truman, Taylor, Pierce, Jefferson……
