	My father's love of old comedy duos saves me again. Thanks Dad!

	So, you're saying "Doctor" isn't a first name?

	Beatlezfann:	Oct 19th, 2011 at 18:28 GMT	65 points
	my odds of getting the Jekyll and Hyde answers correct dropped drastically after Dr. and Mr. werent accepted

	Where are Latka Gravas and Vic Ferrari?

	Thanks for accepting alternatives for Meriwether. I think I used the Cinderella spelling.

	Then why did he answer to "Hey" Abbott?

	DyslexicGod:	Oct 19th, 2011 at 19:41 GMT	22 points
	Roy Rogers, Jim Abbott, Elvis Costello, Doctor Jekyll, Mister Hyde, Agent Scully, Carl Lewis, Steve Martin, Woody Allen, Laura Engels (although misspelled) - these all need to be accepted so I can get a better score. Thanks

	more please!

	good quiz. nice mix of easy and challenging.

	Breathing a sigh of relief that Siskel and Ebert were relatively high on the list. RIP Siskel, movie fans everywhere miss you.

	Guess I've watched too much baseball in my time ... saw "Scully" and reflexively typed "Vin."

	Bobman1:	Oct 19th, 2011 at 21:23 GMT	1 point
	This reminds me of that great line in the movie Stand By Me: "you were so scared, you ran just like that fat guy, Abbott Costello...." Missed one and was really banking on Hyde's first name being simply Mister. Who knew monsters had first names too!

	i agree dysleicgod!!

	Tony and Peter really must be accepted for Abbott & Costello ;)

	pirate6711:	Oct 19th, 2011 at 22:47 GMT	5 points
	Of course I'm the moron who put "Carl" for Marx and went on to guess various Marx brothers (actors) before giving up.

	Groucho -no? Harpo, Chico.....Zeppo....um......Bimbo...?

	Sorry, Roy Rogers didn't dance with Fred Astaire.

	Rachelkachel:	Oct 19th, 2011 at 23:33 GMT	7 points
	Funny that so many more people get "Meriwether" than "William". I guess it's more memorable.

	wetookthebait:	Oct 19th, 2011 at 23:40 GMT	1 point
	Was wondering if "Cassius" can be accepted as Ali's first name.

	RandomFlake:	Oct 19th, 2011 at 23:44 GMT	7 points
	@smartster - Merryweather is from Sleeping Beauty, not Cinderella.

	bromonster:	Oct 20th, 2011 at 00:18 GMT	9 points
	In my idiocy, I typed in Mr. instead of Ginger for Rogers

	arm:	Oct 20th, 2011 at 00:18 GMT	3 points
	Thank you sporcle for reminding me that I have to read Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Friday!

	JustANiceGuy:	Oct 20th, 2011 at 00:53 GMT	-1 points
	Who names their child "Meriwether"? Poor kid. Glad Sporcle accepted my misspelling of the name.

	Todd1952SF:	Oct 20th, 2011 at 02:29 GMT	0 points
	I was surprised that "Grace" didn't work with "Allen." Though George and others on their radio and TV shows addressed her as "Gracie," she was always billed as "Grace Allen." Also, I'm surprised that spellings other than "Meriwether" are apparently acceptable.

	There's something off about the stats for me. They don't show my correct answers or where I fall on the curve. Good quiz, though.

	MandaandKris:	Oct 20th, 2011 at 04:19 GMT	2 points
	@alabamapaladin I believe the character of Dana Scully was named after Vin Scully.

	You should accept Robert for Bob Woodward as that is actually his name!

	Anyone else tried Montgomery for Burns?

	sivi125:	Oct 20th, 2011 at 17:57 GMT	1 point
	I wonder how many people got Carl right just because they misspelled Karl.
