  2. The picture you have associated with The Bob Newhart Show is actually a picture of Bob Newhart’s second show Newhart.

  3. Loved this quiz but I have 1 correction. The episode of the “Bob Newhart Show” that is described is from the first show with Suzanne Pleshette. The picture is from the second series.

  5. #7: Wrong. It wasn’t a cardboard box; it was a wooden one.

  7. I got 7/10. Somehow I swapped The Simpsons, South Park and … West Wing. How odd.

  8. 9 out of 11. The Simpsons and Happy Days were the ones I got wrong.

  9. Wow – surprisingly I got a 9 out of 11. I guess I watch too much TV. The Bob Newhart Show and Cheers were my downfall.

  10. I got a perfect score!

    She says with mixture of pride and shame…

  11. 9/11. Switched The Simpsons and Happy Days too. What threw me off was the imagination aspect; I thought for sure that meant the Simpsons.

  12. I got 9 out of 11. Same as MikeTrig I flip flopped Happy Days and The Simpsons.

    As soon as I saw the title of the quiz my first thought was “As god is my witness I thought turkeys could fly.” Although the better scene in the show was Les describing the “horror” as the turkeys fell from the sky.

    Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!

  13. Me again – I just found that you can actually watch the Turkey episode of WKRP online at IMDB.com.

    recapcha – be purchasers – even the recaptcha is trying to bring us out of the economic funk

  14. 9 our of 11 (I switched Seinfeld and Newhart.) Still – I think I watch too much TV!
