Well, umm, hmm. Okay. There was a tie for first place, as both K. Michael Wilcox (AKA me) and Joe Wright finished with scores of one, and Craig Barker was right behind us with a score of two. Only one answer appeared on more than one entry, and that was "Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?" for the Marx Brother(s) movie. [I had "A Night in Casablanca", myself.] For Joe, this answer was the one not counted, but Craig's thrown-out answer was used on the next question, about the soap actors. [Sorry, Craig, but you're not going to convince me that Sean is a more unusual name than Jude.] A few other quick highlights: The closest grouping of answers came with the Richard Harris question, where all answers came from a period between 1970 and 1976. Otherwise, most answers were marked by divergence. The "Scream" victims were all from different films. [One more entrant and that wouldn't have been possible.] The "X-Files" shared titles were with different series: "Deep Space Nine", "Highlander" and "The New Avengers". The Weird Al songs were from different albums, as were the Beatles covers. And the Best Song winners were all from different decades. Since I mentioned discounting Craig's answer, I should mention that my answer in the soap category was Drake Hogestyn as John Black (Days of Our Lives), and Joe's was Finola Hughes as Anna Devane (General Hospital). Incidentally, when I mentioned before that "Sunset Beach" had a wonderful answer (which no one used), I was referring to the character of Tim, who was played by an actor named Dax. K. M. Wilcox
