	Um...the movie is called that THING you do. No plurals. But it's sweet to see that you can type in oneders and it accepts.

	WadeGarrett:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:03 GMT	2 points
	This should have included Big Mountain Fudgecake from King of the Hill.

	Nuclear_Knuckles:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:04 GMT	4 points
	"Old Timey music"? How old are you Sporcle?

	zigra:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:06 GMT	9 points
	@Nuclear - that's what they call it in the movie. Makes sense to me to include it in the quiz. And I think the AD band came up too soon - I wanted a chance to see if I could get it right!

	ku_sucks:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:06 GMT	2 points
	timmy and the lords of the underworld!!! actually, i'm glad that isn't on here. too obscure, i wouldn't have remembered it if that episode wasn't on last night :) (south park, btw)

	willthelion:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:06 GMT	14 points
	Who could forget "Baby on Board" from the Be-Sharps first album? A classic.

	ku_sucks:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:06 GMT	6 points
	props for the bonus answer!

	RyanUR:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:10 GMT	5 points
	No New Main Street Singers? Hey, wha' happen'?!!?

	Lucy:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:12 GMT	3 points
	I put 'Tobias Funke's Natural Good Time Family Band Solution' SO CLOSE YET SO FAR!! How annoying. I did really badly on this one. What about Turk's air band in Scrubs - Cool Cats? :)

	Tim_Allen:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:16 GMT	18 points
	The bar uses an applause meter. That is why it is so important that you all come and applaud only for my band, Scrantonicity 2. Not Scrantonicity, which I am no longer a part of.

	greekmike:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:18 GMT	4 points
	No Zack Attack?

	WienerJa:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:18 GMT	7 points
	I guess "This is Spinal Tap" would have been too easy...

	Evan:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:22 GMT	4 points
	tim allen, i was just about to post until i read yours. Scrantonicity II should count as an answer too.

	cmkeller:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:22 GMT	11 points
	Geronimo Jackson (unless someone can provide hard evidence that they were real) should also count for LOST.

	Jeremy:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:30 GMT	5 points
	Thank you for making Sonic Death Monkey an acceptable answer or I would have been bitter.

	Josh:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:36 GMT	9 points
	The quiz really shouldn't accept "Wild Stallions". The misspelling is part of the humor.

	jawa88:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:36 GMT	2 points
	agh, couldn't remember how to spell dethklok...=(

	Chiaprofessor:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:39 GMT	-1 points
	I can't remember the name, but how about the band that played at the prom in '10 Things I Hate About You'. That would be a toughie.

	gopaladins:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:42 GMT	9 points
	the first thing i thought of when i saw the title of the quiz was "the beets," from nickelodeon's Doug. i need to grow up.

	gopaladins:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:43 GMT	5 points
	what was the bonus answer? there should be a way to find out bonus answers. i feel like i've been missing out on stuff.

	Salukimars:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:47 GMT	5 points
	Citizen Dick > all

	TenaciousBuzz:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 20:50 GMT	2 points
	Tonight we rock Portland!!!

	bsd987:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 21:01 GMT	1 point
	@gopaladins - so did i. that one should have been there

	Liberal:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 21:02 GMT	-2 points
	No Spinal Tap? What about BluesHammer for Ghost World? Or Zack Attack from Saved by the Bell? Bonus?

	Sal_Paradise:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 21:02 GMT	6 points
	What about Ted's band in Scrubs?

	Mabius:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 21:06 GMT	2 points
	Kinky Wizards in High Fidelity? No?

	pete:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 21:06 GMT	4 points
	glad that Sonic Death Monkey/Kathleen Turner Overdrive/Barry Jive + Uptown 5 are all accepted but there is another band in that movie, the Kinky Wizards (the two skater kids).

	bluesixstring:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 21:08 GMT	4 points
	:muscles: They are actually a real life band. I had, for a while, considered doing a cover band that only did songs by fake bands (Main St Singers were going to be one of them). I didn't think enough people would get the joke to make it marketable though.

	acroarcs:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 21:12 GMT	2 points
	I had "You All Everybody" stuck in my head while doing this quiz, but thanks to reading gopaladins' comment, now I have "Killer Tofu." Thanks!

	Distiller:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 21:15 GMT	2 points
	1/20. You All Everybody!

	Kicking222:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 21:20 GMT	-2 points
	Interesting... in the first ten seconds, I knew eight and knew I would never get the other 12. (I forgot Dr. Teeth, but that was the only one there was any question on.) Good quiz, good quiz. And like Pete, I'm glad the alternate names for Barry's band are accepted (I went with KTO), but like Mabius, I think the Kinky Wizards also need to be acceptable.

	ZeppoMarxist:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 21:24 GMT	0 points
	I'm so glad Geronimo Jackson counts. Made my day.

	Skizzle:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 21:24 GMT	1 point
	Great quiz, but really hard.

	Nuclear_Knuckles:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 21:36 GMT	0 points
	Zigra, I only saw the movie once a long time ago. If that's what they call it in the movie, I withdraw my mild complaint. Thought the Sporclers just didn't know what to call that old-fashioned stuff.

	Annie1:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 21:46 GMT	-1 points
	My first thought was Frozen Embryos from My So Called Life. Oh well. Fun quiz.

	mike adams:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 22:22 GMT	0 points
	Dethklok is very real ...saw them live in Montreal this summer oh and a shout out to the Zit Remedy from the early Degrassi days of course

	DerKomissar:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 22:51 GMT	1 point
	Hot Daddy and the Monkey Puppets should also be accepted for Full House.

	Klingsta:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 22:55 GMT	4 points
	WE NEED THE BEETS FROM DOUG!!!

Comment below threshold: show it

	drza:	Mar 6th, 2009 at 23:10 GMT	-1 points
	I almost got the full house one but thanks Jeebus there was a Simpsons reference otherwise I would've got shutout. 13 of these shows/movies I've never seen,I've seen the office a handful of times but Ive never seen a band,havent watched muppets,bill n teds or full house in 10+ years probably,watched big lebowski once years ago. Only other one I shouldve got was Coming to America. I need to get in more :)
