	Isn't Rudy's name supposed to Keshia, with the i before the A? I got it because I only put her last name, but I noticed the first name seemed a little off

	Leonardo Dicaprio was a child actor in Growing Pains before he became a movie star.

	I can't believe how few people are getting the "One Day At a Time" actress. What a HOTTIE!!!!

	I couldn't think of how to spell jo's name from facts of life or i would have had them all...her brother was Alice's son on the show Alice. I swear to god it was EAN but maybe that was the guy from L&S who played lenny or was it squiggy no...lenny

	I love that sporcle always allows "NPH" as the answer for neil patrick harris. also that NPH has been the answer in at least 2 recent quizzes

	22/30. Better than I thought Id do.

	JoeGrzzly:	Apr 17th, 2009 at 10:39 GMT	0 points
	Dickie Roberts should be a bonus answer.

	I actually got 6, who pays attention to real names of kid actors anyways?

	spurtle:	Apr 17th, 2009 at 12:41 GMT	-2 points
	I got 9 out of 10. Not bad for someone who isn't American.

	The actress who played Mary Camden is absolutely gorgeous

	FWIW, I only got NPH because of his appearance on Harold & Kumar

	This gets annoying but Wil Wheaton as Westley Crusher for Star Trek The Next Generation. Was he young enough to be considered a child actor?

	sub:	Apr 17th, 2009 at 13:38 GMT	2 points
	@Christopher Weigand: Wheaton played in a bunch of other roles (not all TV, either) before TNG. Stand By Me, for example. According to IMDB he was 15 at the time when he played in TNG.

	Sparky:	Apr 17th, 2009 at 14:05 GMT	-3 points
	^ I was so hoping the Stand By Me crew would be in there. Sadly these are American TV shows rather than films, so I only really got Fred Savage. I was expecting to see Wil Wheaton, River Phoenix, Corey Feldman, Ethan Hawke, Dakota Fanning, Shirley Temple, Scott Baio, Jodie Foster.... but nope! Maybe there could be a Child Film Stars quiz.

	Not to be too nitpicky, but Michael J. Fox was 21 when Family Ties started

	Why the heck did they do Elizabeth Berkley and not Tiffany Amber Thiessen?

	sammyhain2364:	Apr 17th, 2009 at 15:32 GMT	1 point
	I find it rather sad that Miley Cyrus is the most popular one guessed right.

Anybody else imdb Frankie Muniz? What a douche.

	croppja:	Apr 17th, 2009 at 16:33 GMT	-3 points
	@Rich raymond. That actress is NOT a hottie. Far from it actually.

	Dodge:	Apr 17th, 2009 at 17:01 GMT	-1 points
	Why in God's name is Hannah Montana on this list?! Jesus Christ, get that trash off of Sporcle.

	MissInformed:	Apr 17th, 2009 at 19:13 GMT	4 points
	I don't usually list omitted ones, but...what, no Melissa Joan Hart (from Clarissa Explains It All and Sabrina The Teenage Witch)?

	LoveShack:	Apr 17th, 2009 at 19:32 GMT	0 points
	being young and English I have only seen Malcolm in the Middle. I got Hannah Montana because that's pretty common knowledge. In all I had only heard of 5 of these actors though. Fail.

	lulubelles:	Apr 17th, 2009 at 19:47 GMT	4 points
	As a brit I'd heard of more of the actors than the tv shows. I totally agree with Sparky, a child-actors-in-movies quiz would be good

	cocky:	Apr 17th, 2009 at 20:34 GMT	3 points
	I don't think Hannah montana or 2 1/2 men should have been included since all the others are stars of shows that are now off the air.

	smillerakalilnoz:	Apr 17th, 2009 at 21:24 GMT	-3 points
	Why the heck did Sporcle put Elizabeth Berkely for Saved by the Bell??? Just b/c she got naked in Showgirls. Mario Lopez or Tiffani-Amber Thiessen would have been a more suitable actor to put for Saved By The Bell.

	Little Opie Cunningham on a sporcle quiz!

	Dunk:	Apr 17th, 2009 at 23:13 GMT	1 point
	I remembered Gary Coleman's name by remembering the Chuck Norris "fact": "Only one person has ever survived a roundhouse kick to the face from Chuck Norris. That man is Gary Coleman and he hasn't grown since."

	Somehow I don't feel too bad about forgetting Joey Lawrence. Now I just need to wipe his from my mind yet again.

	all_saints_day:	Apr 18th, 2009 at 20:26 GMT	4 points
	You have "Saved By They Bell" written instead of "the Bell".

	jawa88:	Apr 20th, 2009 at 21:29 GMT	2 points
	I think if you put Blossom for Joey Lawrence, pretty much everybody would get it. WHOA!!!

	alicealice:	May 3rd, 2009 at 16:59 GMT	1 point
	haha I did appallingly on that - maybe because I'd only heard of four of the shows! lol. But yeah, just wanted to point of that it should surely be 'child and teenage actors/actresses'? not to be all feministy, just so it's right :)

	jadeeeee_x:	Jun 13th, 2009 at 19:59 GMT	3 points
	there is nothing wrong with hannah montana, shes an actress just like the rest of the girls on that list so shes in the quiz, dont see the problem with that?! :-S!

	buppyspek:	Aug 4th, 2009 at 17:06 GMT	2 points
	I agree with jawa88 - Blossom would be a much better clue for Joey Lawrence.
