	So saddened not to see "[Title Character] 1986-1990" for the letter 'A'.

	Enos012:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 18:21 GMT		19 points
	Like the quiz but NCIS is not a word.

	tm16scud:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 18:24 GMT		7 points
	Do hyphenated words and abbreviations really count?

	ScottEmerson:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 18:29 GMT		45 points
	Psych > Punk'd. By a lot.

	@ScottEmerson, especially with the reboot of Punk'd with Justin Bieber as host.

	Tony_A:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 18:37 GMT		11 points
	Also, House > Heroes. By a lot. Especially with Dr. House as the quiz avatar. I also miss Monk.

	Tel:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 18:38 GMT		7 points
	Could have had Judd Apatow's follow up to Freaks and Geeks for 'U'. And the short lived Andy Richter sitcom for 'Q'

	moviegoer74:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 18:44 GMT		0 points
	Echoing what some others have said, it's lame to include NCIS and JAG. There is a show now that starts with "U." (And there was last year when the quiz was made: "UnderCovers"). And Urich not Ulrich. And there are some obscure Q shows you could have used (assuming you don't want to count Quincy, M.E. which I would say is closer to being a one word title than NCIS).

	lancehoch:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 18:48 GMT		1 point
	Along similar lines about NCIS, he title was formerly "Navy NCIS" and "NCIS: Naval Criminal Investigative Service." Not exactly one word.

	jdreyfuss:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 18:48 GMT		9 points
	I don't think an initialization like NCIS and JAG or a hyphenated compound like X-Men and Yu-Gi-Oh counts as a single word.

	NotThere:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 18:55 GMT		10 points
	Surprised not to see Friends and Lost.

	NS7:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 18:59 GMT		3 points
	Entourage needs the 2011, show ended in this summer

	Juvo415:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 19:02 GMT		10 points
	I call shenanigans on NCIS, JAG, X-Men, and Yu-Gi-Oh (and iCarly is also debatable). If the theme of the quiz is "one word" then it should answers that are obviously one word. What about "Xena" ("Warrior Princess" could be seen as a subtitle).

	SporcleAdmin:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 19:08 GMT		6 points
	Hey all, thanks for the feedback. We swapped out the initialisms. And our apologies to Booger for the lack of homage.

	pineappleexpress:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 19:17 GMT		2 points
	Lot of good shows left off for lassie, icarly,etc.

	rockgolf:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 19:23 GMT		2 points
	@SporcleAdmin: But ALF was another initialism - Alien Life Form.

	rockgolf:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 19:24 GMT		15 points
	Considering the lack of a letter "U" on this quiz, I guess Poppy Montgomery's new show on CBS this fall is actually... "forgettable".

	katipo12345:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 19:43 GMT		6 points
	Monk... miss it :(

	Koltrane:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 20:08 GMT		5 points
	A couple of U shows: Undeclared, Underdog.

	Koltrane:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 20:10 GMT		0 points
	Also, it's a bit hokey, but there was Quarterlife.

	Colmar:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 20:11 GMT		1 point
	After reading the above, I thought it'd be fun to mention a few more: Frasier, Glee, Jackass and Popular.

	amwoods13:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 20:19 GMT		10 points
	If you're going to do an A-Z quiz, you really should use all the letters when there are answers that fit every letter as stated by many above.

	TimeAndTide:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 20:34 GMT		1 point
	June Lockhart was on "Lassie" for only 6 of its 17 year run -- 1958-64. So the clue "June Lockhart (1954-1974)" is a bit misleading. Incidentally, according to Wikipedia, "First-run Lassie was televised September 12, 1954 to March 24, 1973." If this is right, then (1954-1974) is a bit off.

	jbrwk5:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 20:39 GMT		15 points
	@All: this is not the quiz I created. Idk how it got changed but I did originally have Lost, friends, and psych and I avoided cartoons. I also had Ironside instead of iCarly among others that were somehow changed. I also gave the network instead of actors (although I wish I had thought of giving the actors.) I'm sorry some of you didn't like it, but like I said, this isn't my quiz.

	crouchingdomo:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 21:05 GMT		0 points
	Also feeling like calling shenanigans on hyphenated words, but I guess I could have read the directions more closely...

	Jamessir:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 21:47 GMT		3 points
	ANY other actor for Oz and I woulda been in...lol. Bah! :)

	Devdan:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 22:07 GMT		4 points
	Gah, I thought of NewsRadio, but then figured it was two words...

	Bobman1:	Oct 24th, 2011 at 23:08 GMT		-1 points
	I'm partial to the Richard Benjamin Star Wars spoof Quark. Instead of Chewbacca they had Ficus--half-man/half-plant. Does anybody aside from a real devotee of the show think Dave Foley's show had a one word title? Really threw me.
