- Thank you for making my first quiz succesful. I got nineteen responces
- and every question was answered by at least two people (so no extra
- points, sorry). The point system was one point for each name. If I
- required a first and last name that I gave one point for each.
-
- And now the answers:
-
- 1. The Fonz (Happy Days)
- Arthur Fonzerelli. Most people gave me both names. Ray Hamel informs
- me thathis middle name is Herbert
-
- 2. "Punky: Brewster (Punky Brewster)
- Penelope. Only four people got this
-
- 3. "Potise" Weber (Happy Days)
- Warren. Got by 7 people
-
- 4. "Buck" Rogers (Buck Rogers)
- William. Answerd by 8. Also one nicjname mentioned in the show's
- opening
-
- 5. "Bones" McCoy (Star TRek)
- Dr. Lenard McCoy. almost everyone got this]
-
- 6. "Scotty" (Star Trek)
- MOntgomery Scott. More people got the last name then the first.
-
- 7. Ace (Dr. Who) (1st name only)
- Dorthy. Only two people got this.
-
- 8. The Chief (Get Smart)
- Thddeus. 10 people got this.
-
- 9. "Wojo" (Barney Miller)
- Stanley Wojohowitz. I was very lenient on spelling on this.
- Interestingly, twivce the number of people got the last name then
- the first
-
- 10. "Coach" (Cheers)
- Ernie Pantuso. The biggest problem on this was some people answered
- with Hayden Fox from Coach.
-
- 11. "Beaver" Cleaver
- Theodore. Most got this
-
- 12. "Boner" (Growing Pains)
- Richard Stabone. Another case of more people getting the last mane
- name than the first
-
- 13. "Bull" Shannon (Night Court)
- Nostrodomus. Only two people got this one. The joke was that his
- mother named him after the hunckback (yes I know, it was part of the
- joke)
-
