Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. "Psych" starred James Roday and Dulé Hill as Shawn Spencer and Burton Guster (Gus). This show had lots of quirks and inside jokes. One item appeared in every episode. What was it?

Answer: A pineapple

While you will not see Alfred Hitchcock, there was an episode that paid tribute to Hitchcock's movies. Listen closely to the theme song. It occasionally changed words or style to fit with a particular episode. My favorite version was in Spanish.
2. "Psych" episodes usually included Shawn Spencer's father. What long time TV star played him? He once played a womanizing lawyer.

Answer: Corbin Bernsen

Corbin Bernsen of "L.A. Law" (1986-1994) played grumpy Henry Spencer, former policeman. The episodes often began with flashbacks of when Sean and Gus were boys. Corbin then appeared as a younger Henry by wearing a toupee.
3. Which character on "White Collar" was a great con artist, escaped from prison, and ended up working with the FBI?

Neal Caffrey was played by handsome Matt Bomer. Caffrey was a great asset to the FBI, but was often tempted to return to his old ways. He usually had his own agenda which may or may not have been the same as his boss' Peter Burke.

Answer: Jessica Pearson

About the only thing to be found in Michael's refrigerator in his bare loft apartment was a few cups of yogurt. Yogurt was often mentioned in conversations as well.

Michael Westen played by Jeffrey Donovan was a spy who was "burned" and dumped in his home town of Miami, where he used his skills to help people.
