Not too shabby for a spring chicken like me, eh?!? :mrgreen:

I got 16, and quite a few of those were way before my time, but Mom and Dad taught me well.

...who are over 55. Wow, Jaye, SilverLady, you were schooled well in trivia if you got those. Especially the commercials--you may see an old show on a cable channel, but you won't see Brylcream being advertised!

I breezed though it, Charlee--I spent WAY too much time in front of the tube when I was young.

The right answers are:

4.) A
Wrong. the answer is C. Chet Huntley

Jack Benny said "Say good night, Gracie." and Gracie Allen replied, "Good night, Gracie."

I missed Peter Pan. Forgot about Mary Martin, but could have sworn Doris Day played him. Maybe on one of her TV shows? Cathy Rigby did though.

Donna,
My mistake on that answer was because I hit the wrong key. Your answer of Jack Benny is totally wrong because you got the wrong person. It was George Burns who said " Say good night Gracie " with which she replied " Good night Gracie "
See we botj can make mistakes.

18/20 on both tests, and I'm willing to bet I'm younger than most here (hint: I thought Bob Dylan barely still trusted me, but I was off by a decade.) I guess I'm just a pop culture junkie at heart ... but not obsessive about it.
