Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Lynette Scavo: I am a brilliant, successful mother of five. I was married to my husband, Tom, for more than twenty years before we separated. I survived cancer, a tornado and a troubled childhood. I am often considered controlling and critical. What show am I on?

Answer: Desperate Housewives

Lynette is played by talented actress Felicity Huffman. In 2005, Huffman won an Emmy award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for the role. She was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in Television Series Musical or Comedy in 2005, 2006 and 2007.
2. Nora Walker: I am the widowed matriarch of a large, close but complicated family. I have two daughters, Kitty and Sarah and three sons, Kevin, Tommy and Justin. I am on the show "Brothers & Sisters".

Answer: true

Nora Walker is portrayed in the show by award winning actress Sally Field. As Nora Walker on "Brothers & Sisters," she has won the Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series and a Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor, as well as multiple Golden Globe nominations.
3. Mr. Gold: In the town of Storybrooke, I am an entrepreneur, a landlord and a generally disliked man. Some may even call me evil, and I might have to agree. But I have my reasons. My fairytale counterpart is Rumpelstiltskin. You can see me on the NBC drama, "Grimm".

Answer: False

Robert Carlyle is as fantastic as ever on ABC's "Once Upon A Time", as Mr. Gold/Rumpelstiltskin. Although it is true that he is not such a nice man, it is also true that he has a lot of good reasons not to be, the most significant being the loss of his one true love, Belle.
4. Aria Montgomery: I'm a high school student with dreams of being a writer. Along with my three best friends, I have been a suspect in the murder of Alison DiLaurentis and the victim of harassment by the true killer for more than a year. I'm in love with my former English teacher. What show am I on?

Answer: Pretty Little Liars

"Pretty Little Liars" is a teen drama based on Sara Shepard's series of books of the same title. It follows the lives of four friends after the disappearance and murder of their clique leader. After a year the girls begin getting mysterious threats, messages and interference from an unknown presence known only as 'A'.
5. Eli Goldsworthy: I'm dark and mysterious and my chosen mode of transportation is a hearse. I'm a writer and a hoarder and I fell hard and fast for Clare Edwards. She broke up with me, then I intentionally crashed my car, hoping it would bring us back together. It didn't. What show am I on?

Answer: Degrassi

Munro Chambers plays Eli on the third installment of the Canadian teen drama franchise, "Degrassi". Eli has had a lot to deal with since coming to Degrassi, besides a disappointing love life. He was the target of a relentless bully, he was diagnosed as bi-polar and his first girlfriend died as a result of being hit by a car.
6. Vince Masuka: I'm the lead forensics investigator for the Miami Metro Police. I am known for my innuendos and I have a huge - albeit unrequited- crush on my co-worker, Deb Morgan. What show am I on?

Answer: Dexter

C.S. Lee brings Vince Masuka to life on the Showtime series "Dexter", a show based upon the novels by Jeff Lindsay. Dexter is a serial killer who kills other killers and distasteful characters, and Masuka (Masuoka in the books), though close to Dexter personally and professionally, has no idea who and what his friend really is.
7. Dr. Eric Foreman: I am a neurologist at Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital in New Jersey. Here, I'm often at odds with my most ornery colleague, a brilliant diagnostician with a bad attitude. He hired me in part because I am a former juvenile delinquent and he believed that would help identify misbehaving patients. What show am I on?

Answer: House

On "House", Dr. Foreman is played by Omar Epps. The character's past is not probed too intently on the show, but we do know that he has a brother with a sketchy criminal past, a deeply religious father and a mother who suffers from Alzheimer's disease.
8. Elliot Stabler: I am a detective with Manhattan's 16th precinct. I have been partnered with Detective Olivia Benson for over a dozen years. I am a dedicated cop but I admittedly become obsessed with cases. My personal feelings often interfere with my work which sometimes effects my performance. You can watch me on the show "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit".

Answer: True

"Law & Order: SVU" is the first spin off of the popular "Law & Order" franchise. As with the original series, "Law & Order: SVU" stories are usually 'ripped from the headlines' and loosely based on real crimes that have been in the news.
9. Jesse Pinkman: I am a drug dealer who teamed up with my former high school chemistry teacher, to cook and sell the most amazing crystal meth on the market. I am estranged from my family and my girlfriend died from a drug overdose. What show am I on?

Answer: Breaking Bad

"Breaking Bad" is the story of a mild mannered high school chemistry teacher who is diagnosed with lung cancer at the beginning of the series. He turns to a life of crime, cooking and selling meth with a former student, Jesse Pinkman, desperate to secure his family's financial future before he dies. I never miss a chance to pimp out this critically acclaimed show and recommend it to everyone as the best show on TV.
10. Roman Grant: I'm a self-proclaimed prophet at the most powerful man at Juniper Creek, the compound where I live with my expansive family. My daughter, Nicole, abandoned the compound and the family to marry my nemesis, Bill Henrickson. What show am I on?

Answer: Big Love

Another amazing prime time drama, HBO's "Big Love" is about a family of fundamentalist Mormons. They live in Utah and practice polygamy. Roman Grant is played by Harry Dean Stanton, who besides an actor is a singer and musician with a career spanning more than fifty years.
