    Well the only way to try and avoid the wooden spoon IMO is to get more people entered who might not know as many.

    I might yet award a wooden spoon for each category, so who knows we could have 7 winners and 7 wooden spoons, just hopefully not 1 person getting all 7. :D

    No need, I've already entered.

    I'll see if anyone worse ( not saying you are the worse so far ) might enter with a shameless plug on the TV battle thread. :D

    Here from the greatest TV show thread...love this! Round one in and extremely confident with it.....all those weekends glued to the sport on a Saturday during the 80's has finally paid off!!

    Definitely showing my age, had a first run through the rest of the rounds, definitely gets much harder as the years go up...I might have 2 tops from the 2010's ones ffs

    Yeah gets tougher as you get more recent, probably because Amazon and Netflix started producing their own shows and some people may not have Netflix or Amazon and unless they get picked up by main stream TV might not get well known.

    What doesn't help too, and I'm awfully guilty of this, is the ability to skip intros now.

    I'll listen to the theme tune the first and last episode of a series, but rest of the time I'll skip it to get straight to the action.

    Even worse when you're only given 15 seconds of it, to try get the brain cells engaged.

    I’ll get the final rounds to you this evening. There’s a few that are on the tip of my tongue that’s what delayed me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 71,799 ✭✭✭✭Ted_YNWA


    It will take you about 2 mins to check my answers, more blanks than anything else.

    Rounds on the way....stumped now and can do no more no matter how many times I listen through.

    Maddening too as there are a couple I know I'll be kicking myself about....., strong start I think...then wobble...good mid section, and then down into the abyss we go!


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,705 ✭✭✭✭Electric Nitwit


    Just sent in round one, few guesses!

    I currently hadn't 0/10 on round two, I'll try to improve that before sending it in :p


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    The only round I have any confidence in is sports.

  • Registered Users Posts: 20,341 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    I have until the end of tomorrow, right ?

    because I'm a broken man right now trying to think of some of them. I'm not going to win, but I really dont want to submit until I get all the ones I should know :D
