UHF Trivia Questions
1. What does "UHF" stand for?

From Quiz UHF

Answer: Ultra High Frequency

UHF stations are virtually non-existent now, in the age of DVD's and reality television.

2. What is the big rival network that tries to turn U62 into a parking lot?

From Quiz UHF

Answer: Channel 8

Channel 8 is the big rival network run by the ruthless R.J. Fletcher who buys the small UHF from Uncle Harvey and tells George he's going to turn it into a parking lot. Luckily, this didn't happen, thanks to Stanley.

3. Who plays the slow-witted Stanley Spedowski?

From Quiz 'UHF' Weird AL

Answer: Michael Richards

4. Weird Al's manager directed the movie. What was his name again?

From Quiz UHF

Answer: Jay Levey

Jay had never directed a feature-length movie before, and Al had never starred in a feature-length movie before. It still turned out awesome, though!

5. What are the names of George's aunt and uncle?

From Quiz UHF

Answer: Esther and Harvey

Uncle Harvey won the deed to U62 at a poker game. After some strong arm-twisting from Esther, Harvey agreed to let George run the place.

6. "Ahhh, a red snapper! Mmmmm, very tasty!" was spoken by which game show host?

From Quiz We Got It All On "UHF"

Answer: Kuni

This came from "Wheel Of Fish," hosted by Kuni, played by Gedde Watanabe. Of course, Phyllis Weaver (the game show contestant) traded it away for what was in the box, which was nothing. Stupid! Very STUPID!

7. What was Stanley's prized possession?

From Quiz 'UHF' Weird AL

Answer: His mop

Although stolen, Stanley's mop is his prized possession that helps the love of his life, janitorial work.

8. How do you spell Weird Al's last name?

From Quiz UHF

Answer: Yankovic

That's right, world! YANKOVIC! Yank-oh-vick! As opposed to the common mispronunciation, "Yankovich." Mr. Yankovic has been pleasing audiences since the 1980's. He is well-known for his parodies, but writes his own songs, too!

9. "Why are you so afraid of that pathetic tub of lard?" Who was George talking about?

From Quiz UHF

Answer: Edna

Big Edna was George and Bob's boss at the burger joint. Of course, Big Edna overheard this conversation with Bob and she hurled the two of them out the door so hard, I didn't think they'd ever hit the ground!

10. "Don't move...slimeball" was the ominous warning uttered by which character?

From Quiz We Got It All On "UHF"

Answer: Gandhi

Gandhi was played in this movie by Jay Levey, Al's manager and director of "UHF." He was featured in the segment, "Gandhi II." No more Mr. Passive Resistance...he's out to kick some butt!

11. What does George feed Bob-o the clown?

From Quiz 'UHF' Weird AL

Answer: Dog treats

They were supposed to be cookies.

12. (While George is watching "The Beverly Hillbillies") "What good is havin' 68 million dollars, I ask you?!" Well, this mornin' it's good for doing what?

From Quiz UHF

Answer: Gettin' a lot of papers signed for Mr. Drysdale

George falls asleep after watching this and has the cool computer-animated dream featuring the song "Money for Nothing/Beverly Hillbillies".

13. What does the watermelon taste like?

From Quiz 'UHF' Weird AL

Answer: poop

'This is good watermelon, tastes like poop!' -Stanley

14. Here's a toughie. What was written in big, bold letters on the side of Stanley's little truck that he drives out onto his show in?

From Quiz UHF

Answer: Stanley's Wrecker

If you're a true fan, you would pay close attention to a vital detail like this!

15. Complete this sentence spoken by the bum who always asked for change: "That penny was worth a fortune! When I cashed it in, I had enough money to buy a whole bunch of shares. And I got me a real neat watch... it's a _______, see?"

From Quiz UHF

Answer: Rolex

R.J. Fletcher wanted a Rolex from his son on Father's Day and was disappointed when he didn't get one. Ironically, the penny he gave this bum outside the office was "worth a fortune" and he bought a Rolex with it. Fletcher had just lost the station, so seeing the bum's Rolex was the straw that broke the camel's back.

16. "Gun control is for wimps and commies. Listen, let's get one thing straight. Guns don't kill people. I do." Which character spoke this line?

From Quiz We Got It All On "UHF"

Answer: Earl Ramsey

Ivan Green was chosen to play Earl Ramsey only because he could scrunch up his face.

17. What type of fish does Weaver land on?

From Quiz 'UHF' Weird AL

Answer: Red Snapper

'Ooh, a red snapper, is very tasty.' -Kuni

18. Here's a bigger toughie. Stanley changed from a red shirt into a grey one during the telethon. Then he's kidnapped by Fletcher's thugs. Where did the shirt come from? (It says on the front)

From Quiz UHF

Answer: Walter's Dude Ranch

Again, true fans don't miss this kind of stuff! Personally, I think it would have been funnier had it come from Crazy Ernie's.

19. Who was the returning champion on the Wheel of Fish who had to choose between the Red Snapper (hmmm... very tasty) or The Box?

From Quiz UHF

Answer: Phyllis Weaver

Poor Phyllis Weaver. She says, "I'll take the box... the box!" Kuni replies, "Good, let's see what's in the box... Nothing! Absolutely nothing! Stupid! You're so stupid!"

20. Who tried to teach poodles how to fly?

From Quiz We Got It All On "UHF"

Answer: Raul Hernandez

Originally, Raul Hernandez was supposed to be a deliveryman who somehow got his own TV show. However, certain scenes had to be redone after Trinidad Silva's death.

21. What's in the box?

From Quiz 'UHF' Weird AL

Answer: 'Nothing! Absolutely nothing!'

22. How many guys sitting on a park bench does it take to do a Rubic's cube?

From Quiz UHF

Answer: 2

In the movie we see two guys on a park bench (one of which is blind). The blind one fiddles with the Rubic's cube and holds it in front of the seeing old guy asking, "Is this it?" The other guy says, "Nope." And then they try again. "Is this it?" "Nope." "Is this it?" "Nope."

23. After George and Bob got fired from the burger joint, they went to George's apartment. George wanted to know what time it was. How did he find out?

From Quiz UHF

Answer: A karate student shoved his arm through the wall

George's apartment was next door to Kuni's karate school. It was loud and noisy, but George didn't seem to mind.

24. "Just call me 'Mr. Butterfingers'" was the reaction when which character cut off his thumb?

From Quiz We Got It All On "UHF"

Answer: Joe Earley

Joe Earley was the shop teacher on the original version of "Town Talk," played by the great Emo Phillips. He amputated his thumb giving a table saw demonstration. This was one of the reasons "UHF" got a PG-13 rating for excessive violence. By today's standards, it seems kind of tame.

25. What does George dip his hot dog in a Twinkie with Easy Cheese in?

From Quiz 'UHF' Weird AL

Answer: milk

26. What is the very first line of the movie?

From Quiz UHF

Answer: "Señor! We must not go any further! Look!"

This is from the "Indiana Jones" daydream sequence. George's associate warns George not to go into the cave, because of an ancient symbol on the wall that means "certain death for anyone who enters." In the end, George gets flattened by the huge boulder.

27. "I've got red cars, I've got green cars... I've got enough cars to ___."

From Quiz UHF

Answer: choke a camel

This was Crazy Ernie's used car commercial. He did threaten to club a baby seal "to make a deal", but the correct answer for this question was "choke a camel." Interesting expression.

28. Which cast member of "UHF" did not star in a television show after the movie was released?

From Quiz We Got It All On "UHF"

Answer: Trinidad Silva

Trinidad Silva starred as Jesus Martinez on "Hill Street Blues," but that show finished its run before "UHF" came out. He died in July of 1988, before finishing his scenes for the movie. Michael Richards was, of course, Kramer on "Seinfeld," Fran Drescher was "The Nanny," and Weird Al had a short-lived Saturday morning show on CBS called "The Weird Al Show."

29. What is hanging from the mirror of the helicopter?

From Quiz 'UHF' Weird AL
