	You shouldnt list the shows in alphabetical order. Makes it way too easy to just guess any reality show/game show you know in the right slot.

	@CraigBerger Since the average score on this quiz is 30% and barely 10% get more than half of the answers, I'm going to go out on a limb and say there's nothing easy about this quiz, even in Alphabetical order. That's just there to help.

	Michael Larson is awesome, he figured out a way to beat the game show. If anyone has not seen Michael Larson on Press Your Luck I highly recommend watching it on youtube as it is quite entertaining.

	I can't believe I missed Charles Van Doren. My mind was totally not attuned to going back to the 50's.

	How about some love for Terry Fator?

	@Sprout: Great game! One suggestion: for Ken Jennings, you should also accept both Grand Slam and Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?, since he won substantial amounts of money on both. ($100,000 and $500,000 respectively)

	Taya Parker won Rock of Love Bus not Rock of Love

	Looks like I need to watch Quiz Show again.

	BonnieH:	Nov 16th, 2010 at 12:44 GMT		0 points
	I'm glad to say I don't watch as much reality tv as I thought I did. I did recognize Charles Van Doren but could only remember the movie, not the name of the show.

	Bonnie, you've never looked more beautiful.

	drlisa:	Nov 16th, 2010 at 13:35 GMT		2 points
	I am ashamed at how well I did on this quiz. Seconding the Terry Fator love as well.

	MikeN:	Nov 16th, 2010 at 13:46 GMT		2 points
	No famous winners of Weakest Link? THis was my guess for Kathy Griffin.

	monstro:	Nov 16th, 2010 at 15:05 GMT		2 points
	5/30. I feel OK about that.

	McManda:	Nov 16th, 2010 at 15:49 GMT		1 point
	I'm disappointed that only 17% of people know that Michael Voltaggio won Top Chef. His season was the best! But then again, my 17 correct put me in the 96th percentile, so I suppose people that sporcle, on average, don't watch reality tv much.

	Squinta:	Nov 16th, 2010 at 16:57 GMT		1 point
	Reality TV is terrible! I don't know why I even bothered with this quiz.

	WithShoes:	Nov 16th, 2010 at 17:09 GMT		2 points
	Thanks for putting on Michael Larson! That episode was scary.

	Jules824:	Nov 16th, 2010 at 18:19 GMT		9 points
	Fun quiz but I wouldn't exactly call the contestants on any of VH1's "of Love" shows winners.

	asta:	Nov 16th, 2010 at 19:12 GMT		-1 points
	I watch a lot of reality tv but I only got 3 cos they are all american shows would be nice to have some british as well

	itsacon:	Nov 16th, 2010 at 19:17 GMT		1 point
	The mix of British and American TV makes it almost impossible. I got a fair number (7) from knowing the names, guessed on most of the rest by cutting and pasting (possibly too much time) since I honestly don't know reality show winners, just the names of the shows, but the Brit versions didn't even cross my mind.

	alkeiper:	Nov 16th, 2010 at 19:18 GMT		-2 points
	@asta, I like to imagine the British have better taste than to bother with reality television.

	heyitsbryan:	Nov 16th, 2010 at 19:48 GMT		3 points
	@alkeiper Actually, some of America's most-watched reality programs were inspired by British versions, including American Idol, Big Brother and Dancing with the Stars.

	FoxyRhino:	Nov 16th, 2010 at 20:25 GMT		2 points
	Big Brother was a Dutch programme first.

	RichN95:	Nov 16th, 2010 at 22:02 GMT		3 points
	@alkeiper. Seriously, you could not be more wrong. Reality TV/Quiz show formats are more or less Britain's top export industry these days. Simon Cowell owns 70% of the country.

	I remember how big of a deal it was at the time when John Carpenter won his show.

	giveupyet:	Nov 16th, 2010 at 22:51 GMT		2 points
	Great quiz/idea! I agree that it may be better to not have the shows in alphabetical order, but you're right, the scores still aren't particularly high. I was surprised by some of the shows absent and present, but it's good because you made it internationally applicable (ex: Britain's Got Talent, etc.).

	Pearl Harbor, Kennedy Assassination, Princess Diana's death, 9/11, when John Carpenter won the Million....you'll always remember where you were when they happened.

	dlutz77539:	Nov 17th, 2010 at 01:25 GMT		1 point
	Do people not know who Dr. Joyce Brothers is, or is it that people don't know that she won on a quiz show? (her special category, btw, was boxing--you could look it up)

	TheLuggage:	Nov 17th, 2010 at 03:36 GMT		0 points
	Is there anyone here who would NOT have won the million dollars (without using lifelines) if given the same questions John Carpenter had. I mean ridiculously easy for a million dollars.

	featherfish81:	Nov 17th, 2010 at 20:40 GMT		1 point
	@dlutz - I don't know about most people, but I knew who she was, but had no idea what quiz show she won. The same with the other celebrities, actually.

	bluedirt2:	Nov 19th, 2010 at 00:44 GMT		1 point
	It doesn't work right.
