Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Pam

Answer: Jim

Jim Halpert and Pam Beesly are co-workers on the U.S. version of "The Office" (2005-2013). Jenna Fischer and John Krasinski played the fictional couple so well many people actually believed they were together in real life. Throughout the second season the feelings between Pam and Jim grow, despite the fact that they each have an ongoing relationship with other people.

In season 6 it is revealed that Pam is pregnant, and the couple gets married. They wind up with two kids, i.e., Cece and Philip.
2. Cory

Answer: Topanga

Topanga Lawrence and Cory Matthews from "Boy Meets World" (1993-2000) had a relationship from the very beginning. They have known each other since they were kids, and their relationship continues through middle school, high school and college. In the last episode of the series in season 7, they marry and move to New York. Cory is a teacher and Topanga is a lawyer.
Talk about "'til death do us part", in 2014 they spin off into "Girl Meets World" where the protagonist is their daughter Riley.
3. Tami

Answer: Eric

Eric and Tami Taylor are the main couple on "Friday Night Lights" (2006-2011).
Connie Britton (before "Nashville") plays Tami, the wife of the East Texas football coach Eric Taylor, played by Kyle Chandler (after "Early Edition"). Tami, originally a guidance counselor turned principal, and Eric were one of the most grounded, lovable and loving married couples on the small screen. Five seasons of a solid, unbreakable relationship provided all of us with hope for the bonds of marriage and for the future.
4. Mitchell

Answer: Cam

The ground-breaking relationship between Mitchell Pritchett and Cameron Tucker from "Modern Family" (starting in 2009) showed us a world where gay men could have love, marriage and family without all the snickering stereotypes. They were just one of the three families of the Jay Pritchett patriarchy, with the everyday problems facing all relationships. Additionally, issues like Mother's Day and gay weddings are dealt with humorously and with sensitivity.
5. Carmela

Answer: Tony

Despite what Tony Soprano did for a living and despite his many issues, including the extra-marital affairs, Carmela (nee DeAngelis) Soprano remained steadfast and loving throughout the six seasons of "The Sopranos" (1999-2007). Tony and Carmela started out as high school sweethearts, married young and had two children, i.e., Meadow and A.J.

Although Tony and Carmela have some major problems, split up and live separately for a while, they wind up reconciling and remain together until the end.
6. David

Answer: Maddie

David Addison and Maddie Hayes, the bickering, on-again-off-again couple from "Moonlighting" (1985-1989), were played by Bruce Willis and Cybill Shepherd. The back story showed how model Maddie Hayes got bilked out of a fortune by her accountant so she decides to sell her Blue Moon Detective Agency to recoup some of her losses. Private eye and employee David Addison talks her out of it, and the two go on to solve crimes together, all the while engaging in sexual banter.
7. June

Answer: Ward

Unless you're too young, who could forget the perfect parental unit of Ward and June Cleaver from "Leave It to Beaver" (1957-1963)? Ward (Hugh Beaumont) coming home from work to dispense wise advice to his two sons, Wally and "the Beav"; June (Barbara Billingsley), a stay-at-home mom, vacuuming the house in her dress, heels and pearls.

The perfect family, living in the perfect suburb of Mayfield...even their problems were perfect, as told from the child's point of view.
8. Dylan

Answer: Kelly

Sometimes you needed a scorecard to tell which couple was together on "Beverly Hills, 90210" (1990-2000). One of the more stable twosomes at West Beverly High was the James Dean-like character, Dylan McKay (Luke Perry), and Kelly Taylor (Jennie Garth). Kelly had been Brenda Walsh's best friend; that is, until Kelly betrayed Brenda by stealing her boyfriend while Brenda was on vacation in Paris. With friends like those, who needs enemies?
9. Trixie

Answer: Ed

Although the couples on "The Honeymooners" (1955-1956) were Ralph and Alice Kramden and their upstairs neighbors Ed and Trixie Norton, most of the "action" (or the dialogue) was between Ralph and his best pal, sewer worker Ed Norton. Ed represented the calm within Ralph's perpetual storm and the sanity to Ralph's craziness. Ed and Trixie's relationship, while secondary to the plot, always seemed to be a warm and loving one. Even after all these years, I can't think of a better 'second banana' than Art Carney as Ed Norton!
10. James

Answer: Florida

Although it was a comedy show, "Good Times" (1974-1979) always seemed to have a realistic edge, with the Evans family who lived in a housing project in Chicago. James and Florida (who used to be Maude Findlay's housekeeper) and their three children lived in a poor, black neighborhood in the inner city.

The protagonists were supposed to be James, played by John Amos, and Florida, the incomparable Esther Rolle. They were supposed to be the role models, i.e., the Ward and June Cleaver, in a very different world.

However, the focus drifted, highlighted J.J. ("Dy-no-mite!"), and became a mockery of itself.
11. Temperance

Answer: Seeley

If you believe that opposites attract, then Dr. Temperance Brennan and FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth from "Bones" (which began in 2005) make a very credible couple. Brennan is a forensic anthropologist and a best-selling novelist. While that combination may seem a bit unrealistic, it is exactly the resume for Bones' creator, Kathy Reichs. Brennan and Booth begin solving crimes together, find themselves falling in love and, finally, get together.

After 11 seasons, the couple is married with a home and two children, i.e., Christine and Hank (and an older half-brother Parker).
12. Doug

Answer: Carrie

Doug and Carrie Heffernan are the main couple on "The King of Queens" (1998-2007). They live in the New York City borough of Queens where Doug delivers packages for International Parcel Service (a UPS-like company). Doug (Kevin James) and Carrie (Leah Remini) live in a house in Rego Park, Queens in a solid, understanding and loving relationship.

There is only one problem...Arthur Spooner, Doug's father-in-law, who also lives with them. Arthur is the foil against which a lot of the comedy is set; he is played by the wonderful Jerry Stiller ("Festivus for the rest of us").
13. Lily

Answer: Marshall

Lily Aldrin and Marshall Eriksen from "How I Met Your Mother" (2005-2014), first met on their first day at Wesleyan University. As with all relationships, this one had its ups and downs but, for the most part, after Lily returned to New York, she and Marshall got engaged, married and had a son named Marvin Wait-for-it Erikson who was born in 2012, with two more kids soon to follow.
14. Matt

Answer: Kitty

One of the oldest and most long-lasting couples has to be Marshal Matt Dillon and Kitty Russell from "Gunsmoke" (1955-1975). While the writers deliberately made their relationship 'ambiguous', i.e., ever consummated?, the feelings between the lawman and the saloon keeper were obvious throughout the years.

While the pair seems to eschew public demonstrations of affection, only kissing once in all that time, we still get the feeling that there was something going on behind the closed doors of the Long Branch, before Miss Kitty left in the penultimate season.
15. Daphne

Answer: Niles

One of TV's longest examples of unrequited love, was that of Niles Crane and his intense feelings for Daphne Moon on "Frasier" (1993-2004). Dr. Niles Crane was Frasier's brother; he was also a psychiatrist who lived in Seattle, Washington. Beautifully played by David Hyde Pierce (winning four Prime Time Emmys for the role), Niles pined for Daphne who was his father Martin's physical therapist. Niles was married twice, i.e., to the unseen, anorexic Maris and the controlling plastic surgeon, Mel...but his heart always belonged over the moon, to Daphne.
