That’s not an easy quiz. I had no clue on the TV show question, since I never watched it.

I got 13 out of 20.
Funny thing is, most of my correct answers came from viewing HBO’s John Adams...
Who says you can’t learn anything from television! :-)

Not an easy test by any stretch of the imagination. I only got 14 of the 20 correct.

You are absolutely right about the HBO John Adams series. I remembered Adams’ defense of the British soldiers from that series when answering the question about it in the quiz.

I got 15 out of 20, but I realized fairly quickly that there was only one person/answer for each question and each wrong answer left the person in the answer pool.

Except for the West Wing question I found it a challenging quiz.
