Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which country administers Gibraltar?

Answer: United Kingdom

The rock of Gibraltar was captured by the British and the Dutch in the War of the Spanish Succession in the name of an Austrian Archduke. In 1713 it was officially ceded to the British in the Treaty of Utrecht, and has been under British sovereignty ever since.
2. What country is the Sistine Chapel in?

Answer: Vatican City

The Sistine Chapel lies at the heart of the Vatican City, the smallest country in the world. The Chapel is the home of the Pope, the head of the Vatican. The ceiling of the chapel was done by Michelangelo Buonarroti, one of his more famous works.
3. Who played Sam Malone on "Cheers"?

Answer: Ted Danson

In its first season, "Cheers" was ranked last in popularity. However, this delightful comedy soon became a big hit, and even spawned a spin-off starring Kelsey Grammer based on his character on the show, Dr. Frasier Crane.
4. Lake Baikal lies near the border of which two countries?

Answer: Russia and Mongolia

Lake Baikal is the world's deepest freshwater lake, and has almost as much fresh water as all of the Great Lakes (of North America), combined. Research into the mysteries of this lake always reveal new things.
5. The flag of which of the following country has a crown on it?

Answer: Liechtenstein

Liechtenstein is considered by many Swiss people to be the "canton that wouldn't join the union", and it remained independent to this very day. It is a constitutional monarchy, and its flag is red and blue, with a crown in the top left corner.
6. In which year did "Saturday Night Live" debut?

Answer: 1975

This funny comedy was aired first on October 11th, 1975. Some famous people who have played on "SNL" were Jimmy Fallon, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Martin Short, Ben Stiller, Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock, Mike Myers, and Will Ferrell. There are many more famous actors that have been regulars on the show because it was a launching ground for many acting careers.
7. Which one of these actors was NOT on the original cast of "Not Ready For Prime Time Players"?

Answer: Bill Murray

"Not Ready For Prime Time Players" was what later became "Saturday Night Live". They could not use the name because there already was a show on the air with a similar name hosted by Howard Cosell. When it was cancelled in 1976, the name was taken by NBC and given to their running show.
8. Mr. T. played which of these characters on the "A-Team"?

Answer: B.A. Baracus

This show was about a group of renegades and runaways from the American Army that were framed for a crime they didn't commit. Though they were outside the law, they were considered to be the 'good guys' and saved countless citizens from oppression and injustice. Stephen J. Cannell wrote the show, and would cameo often as the army officer trying to recapture the A-Team.
9. Which of these are NOT a character on NBC's "Pretender"?

Answer: Mark Smythe

The show revolves around Jared, an orphan who has an abnormally high IQ and can assimilate himself into any situation. The people who trained him are against America, so he escapes, and runs into adventure after adventure.
10. Which of the following men never played James Bond in a movie?

Answer: Christopher Reeve

Christopher Reeve played Superman in the movie production of the popular comic book. Ironically, the actor who played the 'Man of Steel' was thrown off of a horse and paralyzed from the neck down. Christopher Reeve died on October 10th, 2004, of a heart attack.
