Thought we’d do something to kick-start those brain cells.

Oh man, I only knew a total of three answers. In my defence, I'm pretty sure some of them would be easier for your American readers to answer. That's my excuse, anyway :-)
I'm going with Sarah on this one. I should be all over the 80's/90's era. Could do real damage to the self confidence - so I'll go with a lack of information/experience versus the ignorance/poor memory option. Karma chameleonically yours.
I'm rubbish. I only knew 2 answers.
ERm.. TV:
1) Tracey Ullman Show
2) Oooh I know this one! Rebecca - Diane was replaced by Rebecca! LOL! I can't remember her name - KIRSTY ALLEY!! Phew!
and that's all folks!
LOL! hey it's MONDAY!! Brain (all one cell of it) is still lost in the weekend!
Take care
x
I only got two as well - the Simpsons and the last movie one. If it's any defence, I was born in England in 1980...
erm I know the answer to lots of these questions.. I do! I swear! I can picture their faces, but I just can't think of their names.
Being a fan of trivia and the 80s, I can get some of these...
The important question: name your 80s crush....
Winona Ryder and the girls in Bananarama.
I only knew one. LOL - I would love to use Sarah's excuse as I don't live in the US, but I did live there in the 80s and 90s.
Okay....real answers....
Movies
1. Better Off Dead (my wife just introduced our daughter to it this weekend)
2. Johnny Depp
3. Jamie Gertz
4. Val Kilmer
5. Pulp Fiction
Music
1. Rhodes?
4. Dark Side of the Moon ?
5. Rosanna Arquette
TV
1. Tracey Ullman
2. Alley
3. MST3K
4. Miami Vice
5. Dennis Miller
I'm terrible with trivia. But it's Rosanna Arquette in Toto's music video, I think they were dating at the time. Well, not the whole band. :) (I don't think!)
I should know these answers. I in awe of Mock if he got these off the top of his head.
I was only 100% positive on 2 answers. I spent the 80s and early 90s under a rock suffering from amnesia.(And who could blame me? The awful hair, the shoulder pads and stirrup pants...*shudders*)
These are harder than I thought they would be! 80's - I don't think I watched tv (we only had 2 channels anyways where I was), 90's - I blame it on the long days and nights I spent studying :D
TV was my best friend growing up (I turned 10 in 1980) and movies my friends in college (obviously hitting 20 in1990).
Beyond Top 40 and the Beatles, music wasn't much of a factor...so, those questions were harded...
Pulp Fiction and Kirsty Allie. I feel knowledge-less :-(
I read this (before I got to the questions, mind) and thought, "Oh, I am SO gonna OWN this!"
Yeah. I think I knew a total of 2? Maybe 3? By the time I got to, "Ooh! Rosanna Arquette! That's Rosanna Arquette!" I had already decided I needed a major brush-up on my 80's & 90's.
Great post, Alex! :)
Sarah, I'll buy that excuse.
Accidental, too early in the morning?
Kitty, you knew two though!
Nick, that's a good excuse.
Rhonda, you just had to know one.
Mock, very good! And you just saw that movie this past weekend??? I could recite the whole movie to you I've seen it so many times.
Cate, now she's married to Richard Marx.
Lisa, now that's stuff I tried to forget.
AnnaLisa, you got two!
Ah geez.
Movies:
Better off Dead... love the hamburger guitar solo
?
?
?
Pulp Fiction
Music:
Randy Rhodes
Yikes... um, I heard this recently and forgot. From Day of the Dead?
Uh oh.. I have no idea.
The Wall.
Phht... I have no idea.
TV:
The Tracy Ulman show. I was a fan.
Kirstie Alley.
?
?
Dennis Miller
Ugh. I don't feel so smart all of a sudden. I was stumped a bunch there.
I'll give someone else the chance to win, since I know all he answers and it wouldn't be fair. Just kidding. I know three answers, so I'll pass. :)
Teresa
I feel rusty. Eek. And this is such a fun thing! I love trivia (but I'm TERRIBLE at it)!
Hmm, best-selling console, is it Playstation? (It's the one we own, lol).
You will have to go back another decade or two for me to know the answers...was too busy during that time to notice.
Now who doesn't remember Better Off Dead or Mystery Science Theater 3000?
Dude, I failed most of those questions. I seriously doubt even Google could've saved my game at this point!
I know the first one (Better Off Dead), but it's downhill from there.
Less Than Zero, Twister, and The Lost Boys? Arg. I can picture her face, but don't know her name.
Replacement for Shelly Long: Kirsty Ally.
Well, it's better than I expected from myself ;)
ask me about the late fifties and sixties and I'm well away. eighties and nineties unless it's to do with DANIEL I haven't got a clue,
Just taking a rest to sort my family out, one of my followers has ordered and recieved my book.
Yvonne.
This was a toughie but fun! And I usually pride myself on my 80s memories, lol. The only answer I knew for sure was Kirstie Ally replacing Shelly Long - Cheers was a must watch show during my college years. I'll guess Michael Jackson's, "Thriller," as album to stay on the charts for 778 weeks.
I answered every one... I am a total nerd, cause I got them all correct. Either I have to get out more or go on a game show.... Thank you Alex... the Chuck Norris of Chuck Norris's...
Jeremy
Dude. I can't answer even one of those. I even think of myself as a movie buff. Guess not.
Rusty, you knew most - but not The Wall! Think older Floyd.
Teresa, that was three!
Jen, you are the first to get that right - and it was PS2.
Jeffrey, and you are such an 80's music buff!
InLuv, you got those right though!
Suzie, yes to the first, way off on the second.
Jeremy, I expected nothing less from you.
Man O Clay, sorry!
Dear Lord, I need to brush up on my Pop Trivia!
Great quiz, Alex. That's why I only know the same two TV answers as Old Kitty. But I still like Boy George.
Happy Monday.
xoRobyn
Just when I thought I didn't know the answer to any of these...Weren't the Simpsons on the Tracy Ullman (sp?)show? Shelley Long was replaced by Kirstie Alley.

PS. I tried to find a "contact me" space on the A-Z blog so I could reach a host per your message at the beginning of your post, but couldn't. I'm totally excited about this and would love to do a post. :) Just not sure how to reach anyone. :( Woot!!

Lol usually I know most people's trivia answers, but this quiz has me stumped and it feels unfair to google. :-D
Oh, dear. I only know Kirstie Ally. Where have I been all my life?
Since I don't know any of those answers I'm going to claim I was abducted by aliens during those years and experimented on so my memory was wiped clean and that's why I have no clue. It's totally not because I'm uncool. Nope it was the aliens.
I'm going to be hearing "Twooo dollars!" in my head all day.
Zero, Zip, Nada.
I think I got three right. Pretty sure that's an "F".
I must have dream-walked through the 80's, because I hardly remember anything. :(
Karen, yes - you got two!
Baygirl, you got most. Not Atari though.
Leovi, no, wasn't MJ.
Lynn, I can help set you up with a post! And the movie you are thinking of was One Crazy Summer - but that's not the answer.
Lurker, and you scored!
Laura, but I knew you'd get one.
Dafeenah, I'll accept your alien abduction story.
Kelly, and I bet it makes you smile every time.
About the only one I know, or think I know, is that JOhnny Depp was killed in Nightmare on Elm street.
I'm lousy at this trivia.
Movies: Only one I know is the last one--Pulp Fiction
Music --record-setting album? Dark Side of the Moon?
TV-- Tracy Ullman Show- I don't recall ever watching it, but I've heard that thing about the Simpsons many times.
Dennis Phillips is in my head for the last one, but I don't remember him being on SNL.
Lee
A cat's memoir?
Wrote By Rote
I know two of the answers: Randy Rhoads in a meaningless plane crash that never should have happened and the girl from Dirty Dancing ... ummm, what's her name. Well, at least I got the movie right.

movie, pulp fiction
music, white zombie drink? thriller?
tv, in living color, kirstie alley
playstation
fun fun!
It's so sad that I don't know these. I lived through the eighties. However, I was young. That's my excuse.
Melissa, Better Off Dead was a classic. Love that show!
Oh, I know some of these but not all of them.
My friend John Sellers wrote a book called the PCAT--the Pop Culture Aptitude Test. It was hilarious!
I actually knew most of these! I didn't even cheat and look them up. :) *pats young self on the back*
Charles, you are correct!
Lee, you got three - and figured you'd know the music one.
Stephen, Rhodes is right, Jennifer Grey is not!
Melissa, you tripped up on the music, but nailed the others.
Jay, you the man! Now what was the gaming console?
Robyn and Tara, you got a few of them.
Clarissa, sadly I wasn't!
Lydia, I need to read that.
I should know all these answers, but I only know a few. I see your Karma/triber on the side bar. I'm there too. I'm not sure what to do with it. LOL You need to explain that in a future blog post. :)
LOL! Thanks for the chuckle: name your 80’s crush. (And I’ll tell you right now, it was NOT the Culture Club!!!!)
I loved 'The Love Cats' by The Cure and 'Gold' by Spandau Ballet, but I was primarily a Queen fan.
Have no idea about the other questions, so I feel quite the pop culture dunce!
I used to be pretty good at trivia, but you stomped me on most of them. This brings back memories of when the claws would come out during Trivial Pursuit! Julie
Sadly, I kept having that tip of brain feeling on all but three of these, that "oh, I know that one, but whats-his-name again?" feeling. For the answers I did get:Better Off Dead for the movie quote.
Johnny Depp was in Nightmare on Elm Street.
Kirsty Alley on Cheers.
The "I Want My Two Dollars" quote is something of a husband-wife joke around my household - our kids don't get it, and most of our family and friends don't but we laugh over that line together frequently.
Whoo hoo! I knew 4! =P I sucked at the music, but oh well. TWO DOLLARS! bahaha...I love Cusack...so much.
I normally consider myself pretty well versed in the realm of pop culture but you have proven otherwise.
Movies:
Johnny Depp was in Nightmare on Elm Street. Is the actress Jami Gertz? The quarter pounder with cheese quotes comes from Pulp Fiction.
Music:
Yeah. I've got nothing.
TV:
Kirstie Alley replaced Shelly Long.
I think Michael Mann might have produced Miami Vice.
Bonus question:
I'm going to guess Nintendo?
I only knew three off the top of my head.
PS there is a link problem to the A-Z Blog.
Oh GAK! I was busy working with emotionally disturbed kids during the '80s. No TV, very little of anything else. The only one I think I know is...wasn't it Kristie Alley who took over when Shelly Long left?
I'm achingly bad at pop culture trivia. The only one I knew was the Pulp Fiction reference.
1. Better off Dead
2. Uh...
3. Jamie Gertz?
4. Dang I don't remember anything about that movie.
5. Pulp Fiction. :) "Royale with cheese"
6. I'll take a pass
7. From zombies that were white.
8. He's someone's grandpa?
9. Wham! (haha)
10. Kim Cattral?
Oh boy, I did really bad, didn't I? Ah well, it was fun anyhow. THANK YOU for mentioning my blogfest - you are amazingly thoughtful and kind. :)
This was fun, Alex!
Movies:
1-?
2-Johnny Depp
3-Jamie Gertz
4-?
5-Pulp Fiction
Music:
No clue on any of them...:(
TV:
1-In Living Color???
2-Kirsty Ally
3-?
4-?
5-?
Bonuse Question:
Wii???
Had to guess on some and others I was stumped. Can't wait to find out the answers!
Ciara, I have no idea what to do!!
Madeleine, I don't think you're a dunce.
Tyrean, we joke about that line as well. My wife and I both spout movie lines at each other on a regular basis.
MJ, you got all but the last one.
Southpaw, thanks for pointing that out. That link always messes up.
Bish, you got one!
Nicki, you should've had all of them. Turn in your 80's badge.
Jamie, you got a couple right!
Well, I'm terrible at pop culture. I only know a few answers: Johnny Depp was on Nightmare on Elm Street, Kristie Alley replaced Shelly Long, and Michael Mann produced Miami vice. Boy that worked the brain cells.
Mason
Thoughts in Progress
Samuel L. did the quote for Tarrentino's Pulp Fiction.
mmm...the two dollars thing is from a John Cusack movie where he skis. I just can't remember the name. Oh "Better off dead" that's it.
Actor that was killed...Johnny Depp I believe?
I thought White Zombie was named after Rob Zombie.
The actress that replaced Shelly Long was the one that did Fat Actress and is John Travolta's friend. Kirstie Alley? That might be her name.
Dennis Miller is the guy from SNL
Going with Nintendo for the best game console thing.
That's all I could get.
Couldn't you make this multiple choice?
I know one! Shelly Long was replaced by Kirstie Alley. Yay! I was beginning to feel like a total looser.
I know about 80% of these answers, but since I'm in the dentists chair getting my tooth drilled while I read my favorite blogs - I will leave it at that!
True Romance is one of my all time favorite movies.
"What's a Drexel?"
Okay, I have no clue.
This is where I can say I am having a "blonde moment" and get away with it!
Right?
Oh, I meant to say Dennis Miller--I listen to him on the radio sometimes. Dennis Phillips is the name of a magician whom I know.
Lee
Tossing It Out
I'm in a state of disbelief that Better Off Dead is not more well known. My best friend from high school and I spent about a year watching that -every- weekend.
Mason, you got three!
Michael, not Nintendo. And you would think White Zombie was named after Rob, but it wasn't.
Christopher, that would be too easy!
Heather, I believe you. And sucks you're at the dentist.
Single, I'll take that answer!
No you got it, Lee.
Andrew, Better Off Dead is a classic. An accurate representation of being a teen in the 80's.
Pulp Fiction
Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon
Kirstie Alley
You guess the questions :)
Happy Monday!
ROFL - Great fun. Thanks for letting relive the 80's. "I want my two dollars." (my added quote) Say anthing.
Um, got any question for us old folks? 60's would be good, but I could probably handle 50's and 70's, too.
I did know Kirstie Alley replaced Shelly Long, but I think everyone had that one..
Carol, very good!
RaShelle, close, but wrong Cusack movie.
LD, you still got one!
Good gracious. I'm dead in the water. I can picture Shelly's replacement in Cheers, but can't think of her name. And that was the only one I came even close to naming!
I got TWO! Ozzy Osbourn and Kristie Alley. Do I win a major prize? A pat on the back? A go directly to jail; do not pass go card? Something? I'll settle for a small degree of self-satisfaction.
Oh m an, those are hard! The Cheers one is Kirsty Ally (or however you spell her name). Gosh I don't think I know any others! I thought the tv show that parodied other movies was Mystery Science Theatre, but I think that may have been later than 88-99...good questions, Alex!! I want to say Nintendo is the best selling game console but honestly I have no idea...I only say that because your questions are about 80s/90's stuff ;p
Damn, those are some hard questions. I'll throw in the towel right now :( Though (I think) I know that White Zombie was named after a 1930s horror movie about traditional, Voodoo induced zombies that were used as slaves.
I'd be up for doing an A-Z guest post if you guys need an extra pair of hands on board.
This is why I'm so bad at this kind of thing. Entertainment history, news and the names of artists never stick in my head.
Oh I don't know most of these.. I'm pretty sure it was Johnny Depp for the first question:)
I don't know any of the movies. How terrible.
The music--the second last one I'll guess Michael Jackson.
The last one I acutally know-Rosanna Arquette.
TV-The Simpsons originally aired on the Tracy Ullman show. Shelly Long was replaced by Kirsten Alley.
For the bonus I'll guess Nintendo.
Wow, I really need to brush up on my pop culture.
You going to post the answers at some future date? I'm clueless but curious. =D
Lee, you may have the warm fuzzy feeling!
Abby, you got the MST3K one right - so few have.
Jamie, awesome!
Mary, she was the inspiration for the song, but not the one who danced in the video.
Donna, I will post the answers on Wednesday!
Oh, my word, the only thing I might possibly know is the Nightmare on Elm Street question (which I regret EVER WATCHING, EVER!!!), and I don't know the answer anyway, but I'll randomly guess Robert Downey Jr. And the best-selling game console EVER? Shoot. I'm guessing ATARI?
I only had two answers in the TV category. Pretty bad, huh?
Seven. I watched too much MTV in the 80's.
Um . . . I have no idea. :P LOL.
I ran on empty on those questions, Alex. My mind is filled with trivia that no one knows or cares about. Sherlock Holmes would say my not knowing means that with the absence of those facts there is more room for me to keep the facts that amuse and are needful. He, for example, did not know how many planets revolved around the sun.
Have a great new week, Roland
Heather, no, but I will post the answers on Wednesday.
Helena, better than none!
Tonja, you and me both!
Roland, and I'm just a storehouse for a plethora of useless pop culture knowledge!
I stink at pop culture. Seriously! I only know 2 answers for sure.. so sad!
And we don't even own a game console ... although my son once had a PS2 for a while. Does that count? :)
I don't know if it's a good thing or bad thing that I knew way too many of those answers! :)
Well, I managed to get two right. Then I asked my wife to play along. Silly me. She puts me to shame every time we play a trivia game.
Fun post, Alex! (Can we get multiple-choice answers next time, please?) :)
I think I knew one answer...and I might be wrong. Kirsty Ally replaced Shelley long on Cheers. That's about it.
Such a wipeout!
CRUD, not Atari? Must be Nintendo? Now I'm going to cheat and look it up.
I'm guilty of not knowing the answers to even half of those questions. I hang my head in shame. I want to tag in my husband who is much better at trivia than me, but he's in the other room tapping away on his laptop!
I watched Cowboys & Aliens on the weekend. Good flick!
Jemi, it does when that's the answer!
DL, we'll say it's a good thing.
Bryce, it would be too easy!
Angela, at least you knew one!
Heather, neither.
Christine, it's just a fun movie.
I got 4 for sure, but was the last TV one Dinnis Miller? I just can't imagine him hosting a game show, though he's got bills to pay, just like the rest of us.
My mind is slow. I can't even remember the name of the actress that replaced Shelly Long and I know her. Crush of the 80s, Michael Jackson :) But this is fun, you should do more of this :)
You know that stuff is right up my alley, right? I know crap little else, but I do know my trivia...
I can't resist doing at least one though... Royale with Cheese.
Great trivia questions. The first movie question stumped me. I knew the others. It's no small feat to stump my movie trivia knowledge (w/o the aid of google, which I'm sure some folks used :).
Oh, but what was Christian Slater's first movie? It was Star Trek VI.
Oh god, I knew far too many answers. I guess it is okay, i was an 80's teenager. I cannot think of the girls name from Less Thank Zero, Twister etc., but I can hear her voice as clear as day right now in my head. She has a very distinct voice. Oh, and for the game console. It has to be Atari. Am I right?
Will, he did indeed host a game show!
Oceangirl, I think I will.
MsMariah, the first one is a classic.
Mark, very good.
Melissa, not Atari.
LOL Did you get a trivia book as a holiday gift? I know none of these. Guess I'm a different kind of nerd.
Let's see...
Johnny Depp was killed in Nightmare on Elm Street. Jami Gertz appeared in Twister, etc., Quarter Pounder quote is from Pulp Fiction.
I'm gonna guess Rosanna Arquette was the hot blond in Rosanna, but I'm sure that's wrong. Kirstie Ally replace Shelly Long.
Those are all my guesses - pretty sad when I was a teenager in the 80s and should know all of these!
Movies
1 - "Better Off Dead" - Classic Cusack.
2 - Johnny Depp
3 - Jami Gertz (also from "Still Standing" with the amazingly under-appreciated Mark Addy)
4 - Val Kilmer?
5 - Pulp Fiction
Music
I don't have a clue on any of these, unless I cheat.
TV
1 - The Tracey Ullman Show
2 - I'll assume it was Kirstie Alley, unless there was someone else that came in as a replacement between the two.
3 - MST3K is the only thing I can think of.
4 - MIAMI VICE...ahem...sorry about that.
5 - ??? At least two of those I don't ever pay attention to. I'll let you figure out which.
Bonus - That would be the glorious PS2. The Xbox360 might be the fastest to reach certain benchmarks, but the PS2 has it be by more than 2 times (and I only know those because of the research I did for my tech post on December 27).
Movies - 5/5
Music - 0/5
TV - 5/5
Typical. I love music, but only pay attention to the melodies and the lyrics, not the trivia. (And rarely the lyrics.) But I loves me some movie trivia.
Tough one. I can only answer three of the questions without google.
* Simpsons? The underrated "The Tracy Ullman show"
* Cheers? A much thinner Kirstie Alley
* I'll guess at the Nintendo 64.
Mary, no, but I do play a lot of trivia games.
Susan, the song was about Arquette, but she wasn't the dancer. You got the others though.
Joshua, correct on all guesses! No one is getting the gaming one right.
Nate, we should play some time!
Maurice, not the Nintendo 64.
Well...now I'm really confused, unless I'm misunderstanding your response (which is highly probable because I'm exhausted and brain-fried right now). I know the DS is set to surpass the PS2 later this year, but the PS2 has over 153 million units sold.
I'm shocked on the console answer! I looked it up. WOAH, just shocked. Although I do have one of those illustrious consoles myself.
darn it. late to the game. I know the tv ones, but some of the others are really hard without looking up.
Greta trivia..wish I knew the answers. I was born in the 80's and everyone I knew who grew up with me always fondly described the 80's with the same word..."confusing." ;)
I think I knew a whole two answers! it was so hard resisting the temptation to Google them :-)
Pop culture is not my strong point. It might be my weakest. Do I get points for being the least knowledgeable person when it comes to pop culture? I should!
The console may be the best-selling Nintendo DS.
Hi Alex - okay - here's the thing... I don't know any of the answers... I'm officially rubbish!
still wanted to say hi :)
Hehehe...
Lx
I knew the Shelly Long/Kirstie Alley answer...but that's all. I'm so depressed...
No, you got it, Joshua. Just so few have gotten that one right.
Heather, as do I!
Budd, no cheating.
Mark, I would call the 80's 'cheesy' myself.
Sangu, answers tomorrow!
Nisa, do you mind a tie for that title?
Hi Laura!
Patricia, don't be depressed.
Johnnny Depp! For all of 'em! oh wait Kristie Allie for all of 'em.
I knew only two answers, and I am too embarrassed to list the answers for fear I would be wrong.
I am not old.
I'm amazed at how many of these I knew. Man, that really makes me feel old, Alex. Thanks! I was such a headbanger back in the 80's. Big hair and all. Not good with the video game stuff though. I never was into them. But music, TV, (books,) and movies, oh yeah!
That was fun!!
Pulp fiction. Its funny but for some reason I remember Vincent? and 'Le Big Mac'
You lose your bet - I don't know any of this stuff.
Copyboy, which is it man????
Nancy, you rocker chick!
Patsy, I'm sorry.
Okay, so I suck at this pop culture even though I was born in the 80s. The only answer I knew was the Pulp Fiction one... but I get extra points because Q.T. movies are awesome, right??
I suck at all things trivia. My mind draws a blank. Now, my hubby is really good at this stuff. He should have gone on a game show and won us some moola! This is fun even though I'm clueless!
I'm so bad at this. Even if I know a movie or song, I can't remember the titles, or names etc. Argh. :-)
Alexia, yes you do!
Lynn, I usually beat my wife at trivia games as well.
Angela, sorry!!
<--totally clueless. :P
oh my gosh, i only know the cheers answer: kirstie alley. right? christy
Dang. Forgot about the Bonus Question!
I think it's either going to be the Playstation2 or Nintendo DS. I will go with Nintendo DS with all the Christmas sales racking up!
That's my best guess.
Bonus question...Atari 7800! My crush was George Michael :-) Just saying. I think I got about 4 of the answers. And it was Randy Rhodes, I've been to his grave about 3 times, met his mom, brother and sister. Wonderful people.
