Woot! I got them all right, except for the last one.

I heard about this show in the radio. Is it any good?

Ditto, Nauriel.

I only missed the one on Lincoln. Probably because I make a point of sleeping through U.S. history...

xD My teachers never make us remember dates---- so I wouldn't know either, Astinos...Knighty of whatever because man, I can't keep track of who the heck you are ! >.<

I like the show ---- it's a bit boring if you were a genius, but if you actually don't know the answer to some of these, you either a) learn it, or b) laugh about it.

The host is also a catch! Jeff Foxworthy is love.

I haven't actually seen this show, but it sounds good. What channel would it be on?

Hehe... and amazingly I got all of them right except the one about Abe Lincoln. As a Brit in a World History class I find it quite hard to remember any dates!

I'm not sure if it airs in the UK, Larael.... so you''ll have to see if anyone else in UK have seen it or maybe try googling it.

It's an interesting idea for a show, I watched most of the episode on Thursday. But I found it got somewhat dull after a while. I got most of them right, but like Haldir, I don't know those kinds of details about American politics.

Who wants to join me in bringing back the lady?

Sometimes the time changes since it's a new show --- it's trying to find a good stationary airing time. It's usually on FOX, Thursday nights though. It's an hour long, so it'll either be at 8 or 9.
