	Some of the best moments in television history were when MH would try to stump the audience by offering fifty dollars to anyone who could produce some dignity or self respect.

	Bobman1:	Jan 28th, 2012 at 04:49 GMT	5 points
	@ElisDaddy, you stole that from Dennis Miller's "Off White Album." Still, a fine joke.

	ElisDaddy:	Jan 28th, 2012 at 05:23 GMT	2 points
	@Bobman1, I only steal from the best. I knew another fan would recognize it.

	shoff:	Jan 28th, 2012 at 05:41 GMT	2 points
	The clue for MM should say "starred" instead of "stared."

	rockgolf:	Jan 28th, 2012 at 05:43 GMT	8 points
	These days I'd pay $50 to see Dennis Miller produce some dignity or self-respect.

	TheLuggage:	Jan 28th, 2012 at 05:55 GMT	2 points
	All the things that MY was in and I can only recognize him Austin Powers.

	barnztormre:	Jan 28th, 2012 at 05:57 GMT	6 points
	I would think Meryl Streep has a bigger pedigree than Mira Sorvino. My two cents.

	adhair:	Jan 28th, 2012 at 06:08 GMT	11 points
	I was expecting Wahlberg to show up under MM.

	I'm old enough that I can't recognize MZ as the initials to Mao Tse Tung... I also remembered all about the Monty Hall problem, but couldn't remember the man's name! Oh well, I never watched the show.

	You're missing an E in Etheridge.

	freaky69az:	Jan 28th, 2012 at 09:35 GMT	6 points
	I've never heard of Michael Urie. Midge Ure was the lead singer of the 80s band Ultravox. Not sure that's any better, though. A Martha Quinn sighting! Kudos!

	fizzybun:	Jan 28th, 2012 at 10:16 GMT	6 points
	Enjoyed this but, being English, there are so many US orientated answers that I'm guaranteed to fail!I'm also too old to change my spelling of Mao Tse Tung. A bit too ambiguous when translated into English spelling. Of course, you could have used Mark Zuckerberg.....

	cardfan:	Jan 28th, 2012 at 15:07 GMT	5 points
	MW would have got all these right. There would have been a lot of blood on the keyboard.

	kristifree:	Jan 28th, 2012 at 17:36 GMT	6 points
	I tried Madonna Ciccone for MC...

	Badgerhawk:	Jan 28th, 2012 at 17:59 GMT	3 points
	Too many actors and actresses. Would like to se more historical figures in there.

	xolkan:	Jan 28th, 2012 at 18:36 GMT	1 point
	yikes when I read the MN clue(the tennis one) I typed in Martina Hingis first.

	ahamilton:	Jan 28th, 2012 at 19:34 GMT	3 points
	The word "former" is unnecessary in the MT clue. It should read "Prime Minister of the UK from 1979-1990".

	Big_E:	Jan 28th, 2012 at 23:13 GMT	2 points
	Ahh Martha Quinn. She definitely had that 80s thing about her...

	Pogues:	Jan 29th, 2012 at 03:50 GMT	4 points
	14 of the 26 answers are directly associated with Hollywood...there's more to fame than movies and TV.

	danshaggy292:	Jan 29th, 2012 at 17:40 GMT	1 point
	Anyone else rather optimistically try Missy Elliott?

	aznemesis:	Jan 30th, 2012 at 01:21 GMT	2 points
	"These days I'd pay $50 to see Dennis Miller produce some dignity or self-respect." Now, that is a good joke. Miller hasn't seen one of those in years.

	It's a neat touch that you accept the correct name for Gandhi, and that the initials work out anyway! Good quiz.

	UVAfan33:	Jan 31st, 2012 at 05:12 GMT	2 points
	Good quiz. Though I'd say Mick Jagger is probably the 3rd most famous "MJ"
