Banana Splits Trivia Questions
1. There were four members of the Banana Splits. If Fleegle is a beagle, what animal do you think "Snorky" was?

From Quiz One Banana, Two Banana

Answer: elephant

Snorky is a great name for an animal with a really big snork.. errr, snout. Similar to Harpo Marx, he has the dubious infamy of being the only character who didn't require a voice actor. He simply never said anything. Oddly, the Snorkster started off as a really hairy being (a cross somewhere between Cousin ITT and a woolly mammoth). In the second season, he's all clean-cut and respectable.

2. The "Banana Splits Show" was a creation of which cartoon company?

From Quiz "The Banana Splits" - Rock and Roll Animals

Answer: Hanna Barbera

William Hanna and Joseph Barbera gave us many classics such as "The Jetsons" and "The Flintstones".

3. Prince Turhan and Princess Nidor led the Arabian Knights against the evil Bakaar. What was the name of their little donkey?

From Quiz Hanna-Barberra's 'Banana Splits'

Answer: Zazu

He may have been little, but his hind legs sure packed a wallop!

4. How many Banana Splits were there?

From Quiz "The Banana Splits" - Rock and Roll Animals

Answer: Four

Remember the song? "One banana, two banana, three banana, four. Four bananas make a bunch and so do many more".

5. On 'Danger Island,' what was the name of the native who was friends with Morgan and came to the aid of the castaways?

From Quiz Hanna-Barberra's 'Banana Splits'

Answer: Chongo

'Uh-Oh! Chongo!' was Morgan's cry when he needed his friend's assistance.

6. Usually some type of music was involved on "The Banana Splits Adventure Hour". One song featured a man with a deep voice who was famous for "I Can't Get Enough of Your Love, Babe". Do you know who he is?

From Quiz One Banana, Two Banana

Answer: Barry White

The song was called "Doin' the Banana Split" and is part of the compilation of 45 EPs sponsored by Kellogg's (of cereal fame) and featured on the show. The Banana Splits usually pretended to be playing the songs against psychedelic backgrounds. Barry White. Who'd have thought?

7. Fleegle, the Beagle, played what musical instrument?

From Quiz "The Banana Splits" - Rock and Roll Animals

Answer: Guitar

Fleegle was the leader of the gang, and he always had his tongue sticking out. Fleegle was voiced by Paul Winchell who also did the voice for Tigger from "Winnie the Pooh".

8. Who was Secret Squirell's companion?

From Quiz Hanna-Barberra's 'Banana Splits'

Answer: Morocco Mole

Okay, that one was TOO easy!

9. Bingo, the drummer, was what kind of animal?

From Quiz "The Banana Splits" - Rock and Roll Animals

Answer: Gorilla

Some may argue that he was an orangutan, but Bingo was a gorilla. Animal, from the "Muppet Show", reminds me a lot of Bingo.

10. What was the Hillbilly Bears' daughter's name?

From Quiz Hanna-Barberra's 'Banana Splits'

Answer: Floral

There was Pa, Ma, Floral and Shag.

11. One of the Banana Splits members was an ape/monkey with a name that is the same as a game. Who was he?

From Quiz One Banana, Two Banana

Answer: Bingo

Well, THERE's a game I've never played and don't intend to until I'm at least 65. Bingo (who we think is a gorilla) is the drummer of the group. His choice of name was most likely related to The Beatles as a take-off on Ringo.

12. Drooper was also a guitar player. What kind of animal was Drooper?

From Quiz "The Banana Splits" - Rock and Roll Animals

Answer: Lion

Drooper was a lion, and he reminds me a lot of Pete Puma from Warner Brothers cartoon fame.

13. In 'The New Adventures of Huckleberry Finn,' who was the voice of Injun Joe?

From Quiz Hanna-Barberra's 'Banana Splits'

Answer: Ted Cassidy

The late Ted Cassidy is most remembered for playing the character Lurch on 'The Addams Family' in the 1960s.

14. In the second season of "The Banana Splits Adventure Hour", one of the segments, "Danger Island" were all repeats. What blond heartthrob actor of the time, more well known for "Airwolf", played the role of Link?

From Quiz One Banana, Two Banana

Answer: Jan-Michael Vincent

Jan-Michael Vincent was credited as "Michael Vincent" while being filmed for "Danger Island". Unfortunately, despite many bit parts in movies/TV, his life path degenerated significantly after "Airwolf". The other three choices are more recognized as singers and are not natural blonds.

From Quiz "The Banana Splits" - Rock and Roll Animals

Answer: Keyboards

Snorky never really talked. He simply "snorked" or "honked".

From Quiz Hanna-Barberra's 'Banana Splits'

Originally started by MGM directors William Hanna and Joseph Barbera (of "Tom and Jerry" fame in the movies), the company had hits with "The Flintstones", "The Smurfs", "Yogi Bear" and "Scooby-Doo", amongst others. The alternate choices are usually more associated with movies rather than television.

From Quiz Hanna-Barberra's 'Banana Splits'

20. Which segment of the show featured teen heartthrob Jan Michael Vincent?

From Quiz One Banana, Two Banana

Answer: Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In

All of the shows listed above were aired in 1969, but the only one with a stage prop of a wall with windows/doors opening so people could tell jokes was "Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In".
