	Really, I spelt the Sixth Sense director's last name right on the first try? I believe this is the first time in my life I ever did that successfully.

	I'm glad it didn't say 'Dirctor of the movie 'The Village'' but not glad i had to spell 'Shyamalan'

	Boogie Nights - what a great film

	how is it even possible that saturday night live has a higher % than saturday night? you have to spell the latter to get the former.

	@david I wondered the same thing. Then, out of curiosity, I reloaded the quiz and tried "SNL" which worked. That's probably how it happened.

	Shouldn't 1001 arabian nights be acceptable, not just arabian nights?

	jhsyodles:	Aug 27th, 2009 at 04:52 GMT		2 points
	david, it is because you can type "snl" for saturday night live and still get the right answer, but then you wouldn't get credit for saturday night. That is what happened when I took the quiz.

	Monday Night Football is still on the air- just on ESPN not ABC

	Got 2 bonuses- one a tv show and the other a person

	JoeFish:	Aug 27th, 2009 at 05:03 GMT		7 points
	Yes, the phrasing of the Monday Night Football clue could be better. I know the clue's trying to say "They used an intro song by Hank Williams Jr. from 1970-2005" but it makes it sound like the show went off the air in 2005, which isn't the case. Otherwise, great quiz, and somewhat tough!

	Vicki Lawrence was 1973, not 1971

	And speaking of song years, Moody Blues released that song in 1967 alright, but it didn't become a single until 1972!

	Bay City Rollers in a quiz! Fantastic...

	I'm amazed that so many people can spell Shyamalan - I gave up on it in the end!

	anybody else surprised at the choice of shakespeare play over a midsummer's night dream? I always thought that one was more popular.

	JoeFish: Actually, MNF did not always use the Hank Williams Jr. intro, thank goodness. That intro started many years later.

	Alternative (and more accurate) answers for the collection of folk tales include: The/One Thousand and One Nights, or The Thousand Nights and One Night.

	i thought the Shakespeare play was A Midsummer Night's Dream.

	I dont know who the dirctor or The Sixth Sense was, but M. Night Shyamalan was the director.

	I dig the color scheme for this quiz. I enjoy being able to type white letters on a black background. It was very suitable for a quiz about night!
