Star Trek?
Maybe it was only shows that lasted more than a season or two.
And seems like all the questions were Prime Time shows....so that would negate Disney and Mickey.

edit on Wed Aug 9 2023 by DontTreadOnMe because: clarity...as Star Trek had a very brief run on prime time.

Yep, same here. Most I remember, but some I missed when we changed continents. However, most are iconic and were globally aired.

LOL, I didn't realise there were question until I read it here. I just instinctively went for the pictures. It's how I 'read' books as a child, no need to change my ways at my age.

I am sorry but you are wrong. The original Star Trek series first aired from 8:30 to 9:30 pm, it was in prime time. Whoever made the list to make the questions probably just looked up a list of popular TV shows and did no further research.

I am still disappointed in this being called 'The Ultimate Classic TV Trivia Quiz". There is nothing ultimate about it and very little trivia challenge.

What show was this line always said, "John Frank William 899"?

In what show was the radio call sign KMG365 used?

Now those are trivia questions?

Interesting! I look into it when I get the chance.

Yes, that quiz could easily have gone on for 200+ questions if they had broadened their horizon. It is obviously US-centric, and as DTOM suggested, probably catering to prime time shows, and perhaps specific viewers or their demographic specific readers.

Perhaps the site has a suggestions box you could write to.

Great! And yes, I prefer hunting for old shows, usually on YouTube. I once found the whole of the Speed Racer animated series... I need to check it's still there.
