Suddenly Susan Trivia Questions
1. Shortly before Susan became involved with Jack, she was very upset to see him kissing another woman. Who did she see Jack kissing?

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 3

Answer: Maddy

Susan was demoralized to see Jack kissing Maddy in the Christmas episode "Yule Never Know". In the following episode, "A Kiss is Just Amiss", Susan confided in Vicki about her feelings and what she had seen (and naturally, Vicki immediately told everyone else at "The Gate"). Maddy offered Jack a physical relationship with no emotional commitment, but Jack declined. Susan finally admitted to Jack that she wanted to have a relationship with him, but he declined her advances as well.

2. Barbara Barrie co-starred as Nana (Susan's grandmother, Helen Keane). Which popular 1970s sitcom did Ms. Barrie also co-star in?

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 2

Answer: Barney Miller

Barbara Barrie portrayed Barney Miller's wife, Elizabeth.

3. In addition to being a popular actress, Brooke Shields has enjoyed an extremely successful modelling career. Which other famous model/actress appeared on "Suddenly Susan"?

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 1

Answer: Kathy Ireland

Kathy Ireland was one of the first supermodels. She appeared twice on "Suddenly Susan", as Terri (Adam's ex-wife). Kathy and Brooke share a common physical characteristic: very bushy eyebrows.

4. Jack Richmond was Susan's first boss at "The Gate", and one of her main romantic interests. In the series opener, Susan left Jack's brother at the altar. What was the jilted brother's name?

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 1

Answer: Kip

Kip appeared in three additional episodes during the run of the series. Susan also had a memorable evening with Jack's brother-in-law, Flip, in the episode "Was it Something I Said?"

5. During the episode "The Wish List", Susan bemoaned the fact that she hadn't achieved any of the goals she set for herself during the sixth grade. One of those goals was to kiss a 1970s teen idol. Who did Susan want to kiss?

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 3

Answer: Leif Garrett

Susan actually got to meet Leif in this episode, and she admitted her teenage desire to kiss him. To her subsequent dismay, Leif became instantly infatuated with her.

6. Luis and Todd shared many escapades together. They once attempted to make their fortunes by marketing hideous bell-bottom pants, an ill-fated venture that was doomed from the start. What were those pants named?

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 2

Answer: Lemon Legs

Lemon Legs were bright yellow, skin-tight bell-bottoms. Luis and Todd both wore them, claiming "they're not just for women anymore". Beyond their ghastly appearance, Lemon Legs suffered from another fatal flaw: the material they were made from spontaneously combusted.

7. Todd Stites was the music critic for "The Gate". What was his favorite song?

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 1

Answer: "Praise You" (Fatboy Slim)

Sadly, we learned this fact during the poignant memorial episode for David Strickland, "A Day in the Life" (the third season finale). The final tribute at the end of the episode read, "The Gods of Comedy Looked Down Upon You and Smiled". Rest in peace, David.

8. Todd's parents (Attica and Nectarine) were refugees from the 1960s, hippies who Todd said "didn't wear underwear". Todd once gave his mother a bra, apparently the first one she had ever owned. What did Nectarine do with it?

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 2

Answer: Made it into a bird feeder

Attica and Nectarine were played by Tom Smothers and Susan Ruttan. They appeared in three episodes, "It's My Nana and I'll Cry If I Want To" and "Oh, How They Danced" (a two-parter).

9. In one episode, Todd became overprotective of his visiting sister, because she was going out on a date with Jack. What was his sister's name?

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 1

Answer: Oxnard

It turned out that Todd's worries were unnecessary. When Jack tried to kiss Oxnard, he discovered she reminded him so much of Todd that he couldn't go any further.

10. Nestor Carbonell played Luis Rivera, photographer for "The Gate" magazine. What nationality was Luis?

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 1

Answer: Cuban

Luis spoke often of his Cuban heritage. Two episodes ("A Boy Like That" and "5,947 Miles") centered around visits from his Cuban relatives.

11. Jerry appeared in several episodes, and he was totally enamored with Vicki. On one occasion, Vicki caught Jerry staring at her breasts, and she told Todd to "tell him to stop staring at my ____!"

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 3

Answer: Twin Pods

Jerry really was the ultimate nerd. He lived with his parents, his bedroom was literally a shrine to "Star Trek" and "Star Wars", and he once arrived at "The Gate" sporting full Darth Vader regalia.

12. Throughout most of the series, one story arc dealt with Luis and his fixation on one of the women who worked at "The Gate". Who was Luis enamored with?

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 2

Answer: Maddy

Luis was smitten with Maddy from the very first day she arrived at "The Gate", but Maddy did not feel the same toward him. Much later, when Maddy was trying to manage her alcohol problem, she started smoking, but found the habit disgusting. She then turned to Luis to replace cigarettes, and they became involved in a relationship which (inevitably) failed.

13. During the fourth season, "The Gate" had a second staff photgrapher, Oliver Browne, who became Susan's primary love interest. Who portrayed Oliver?

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 1

Answer: Rob Estes

Rob Estes played Oliver, but all four actors were associated with "The Gate". Bill Stevenson was Pete, the gay mail room clerk during seasons 1-3. Judd Nelson portrayed Jack Richmond, the magazine's owner during the first three seasons; in the fourth season, the magazine was taken over by Ian Maxtone-Graham, played by Eric Idle (of "Monty Python" fame).

14. Todd once spent far too much money on something, in the hopes of getting a date. What did Todd buy?

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 3

Answer: Tupperware

In the episode "One Man's Intervention is Another Man's Tupperware Party", Todd purchased so much Tupperware it was delivered in large boxes on a hand cart. Meanwhile, Maddy's co-workers arranged an intervention, due to her escalating alcohol problem.

15. Vicki Groener is best known for her obnoxious personality, flaming red hair, and outlandish wardrobe. She once dated a professional ice hockey player named Ulf. What was Vicki's job at "The Gate"?

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 1

Answer: Restaurant Critic

Vicki was the restaurant critic for "The Gate". Before she married Rabbi Ben Rubenstein, Vicki went with him on an ill-fated kibbutz in Isreal; in her absence, Todd and Luis competed for the vacant food critic assignment.

16. In the episode "The Billboard", a sexy picture of Susan was depicted on a billboard advertising "The Gate". How did Susan appear on that billboard?

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 3

Answer: Fully clothed

Susan initially objected to having her picture taken, because she believed that she didn't photograph well. However, Oliver took an excellent shot, which Ian decided to use for the billboard. Susan didn't take any of her clothes off for the picture, but the billboard was still steamy by all accounts. At first, Susan didn't like the extra attention, but she quickly became very self-centered due to her new notoriety; she ultimately crashed her car while trying to get Vicki to look at the billboard.

17. Andrea Bendewald portrayed Maddy Piper, a high school classmate and nemesis of Susan. Vicki once stole something out of Maddy's office. What was it?

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 1

Answer: A vase

Vicki took the vase because she was annoyed that Maddy didn't give her a wedding gift. Both Maddy and Vicki thought the vase was a valuable original, but it later proved to be a cheap knock-off.

18. Which 1960's-era rock band made an appearance on "Suddenly Susan"?

From Quiz "Suddenly Susan" Volume 1

Answer: The Turtles

The Turtles appeared in the episode "Sometimes You Feel Like a Nut", and performed their signature song, "So Happy Together".
