Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. They moved to West Covina for Josh.

Answer: Rachel Bloom

Rachel Bloom played Rebecca Bunch on the CW comedy/musical "My Crazy Ex-Girlfriend" beginning in 2015. A show about a slightly (well...more than slightly) obsessive young woman and her goal of being with her ex-boyfriend, Josh (played by Vincent Rodriguez III) at all costs.

She moves to West Covina, California in the beginning of the series and, soon after, reinserts herself into his life. The show is also punctuated by song-and-dance numbers of all genres as she battles her psychological issues.
2. They needed to go back!

Answer: Matthew Fox

Matthew Fox played Jack Shepard in TV's "LOST" for six seasons, leading the survivors of Oceanic Flight 316 as they struggled to live on a Pacific Island (which, as it seemed, was more than just an island) and contact the world beyond the sea. Jack made it off the island at the end of season four, but it became clear after further revelations that he and the five others he fled with needed to return to make things right.
3. They could read humans' minds.

Answer: Anna Paquin

Anna Paquin played Sookie Stackhouse, the main character of all seven season of HBO's "True Blood", the supernatural mystery series adapted from novels written by Charlaine Harris. It was revealed in earlier seasons that Sookie could read minds, an ability later linked to her fairy ancestry. Part of Sookie's interest in Bill (played by her real-life husband, Stephen Moyer) was that, as a vampire, his thoughts were unreadable.
4. They couldn't escape Kilgrave.

Answer: Krysten Ritter

Krysten Ritter played Jessica Jones in the Netflix series of the same name, part of the Marvel Universe. In season one, Jessica faced off against Kilgrave, a man with the ability to convince others into doing anything with the power of supernatural suggestion.

He had previously convinced her to be his accomplice and lover, but she was able to break free of their abusive relationship. Kilgrave was played by David Tennant.
5. They were the neighbour we rarely and barely saw.

Answer: Earl Hindman

Earl Hindman played Wilson, the rarely-seen, always heard neighbor of Tim Allen in "Home Improvement". Wilson often provided sage advice to Tim and the Taylor family when they needed it most, but his face was never shown in full (it was always obscured by something) until the show's final episode in season eight. His full name was Wilson Wilson, Jr.
6. They knew nothing!

Answer: Kit Harrington

Kit Harrington played Jon Snow in HBO's fantasy show "Game of Thrones" starting in 2011. A bastard son of Ned Stark, the King of the North, Jon Snow takes a spot at The Wall, overseeing the border to the far north as a watcher. Much of his story, as such, takes place far away from the events in King's Landing and elsewhere.

It's during one excursion over The Wall that he meets Ygritte, a Wildling woman who says the famous line "You know nothing, Jon Snow."
7. They were always looking for advice from Wilson.

Answer: Hugh Laurie

Hugh Laurie played Dr. Gregory House on the FOX TV show "House MD" for eight seasons, solving some of the toughest cases at Princeton Plainsboro Hospital with his dedicated team. While the show was a procedural case-wise, it also followed the struggles of House himself (and his addiction and life), his friend Wilson, the head of the hospital, and the staff therein.

The show was loosely made to reflect Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes, but in a modern, medical environment.
8. They were... or weren't... on a break

Answer: Jennifer Aniston

Jennifer Aniston played the role of Rachel Greene on "Friends" for ten seasons. While this sitcom had a number of different storylines over its ten years, one of the major threads was the will-they-or-won't-they relationship between Rachel and Ross (played by David Schwimmer) wherein they not only got into relationships several different times, but got married in Vegas and had a child (eventually).

The phrase "we were on a break" became an instant pop culture meme in the 2000s.
9. They couldn't be spared a square!

Answer: Julia Louis-Dreyfus

Julia Louis-Dreyfus portrayed Elaine Benes in this one. The show in question is "Seinfeld". In this particular instance, Elaine, in a stall at a movie theatre, was angry with a woman who refused to hand her a single square-- even a single ply-- of toilet paper when she found that she was out.

She later discovered that the woman was dating Jerry and exacted her petty revenge on this minuscule act in her life. But such was the case with most of the things that happened on the show.
10. They were a restaurant owner...and a secret agent?

Answer: H. Jon Benjamin

H. Jon Benjamin plays both Bob Belcher (in "Bob's Burgers") and Sterling Archer (in "Archer") in this question, though in one episode of "Archer" he seemed to play both. Many wouldn't recognize him by appearance, but this actor has appeared in a number of animated shows including the two above, "Family Guy", and "Venture Bros.". With his distinctive, low voice, he's often in a comedic role; he also hosted "Jon Benjamin Has a Van".
