Answer: Ally McBeal

Created by David E Kelley, Calista Flockhart starred in the role of the title character. The show ran for five seasons, first airing in 1997.

2. Which show, first airing in 2006, dealt with a man married to three different women in Utah?

Answer: Big Love

"Big Love" ran for five seasons. It starred Bill Paxton as the man leading a very complicated life juggling three families that were living in suburbia in three different (but conjoined) households.

3. "Cold Feet" was a comedy-drama TV series produced in Australia about Australian families.

Answer: False

"Cold Feet" was a British production with a largely British cast. Starring James Nesbitt and Helen Baxendale, it followed three couples through various challenges in their lives.

5. Kyle Chandler starred as a man named Gary who received a newspaper every morning with the next day's headlines on it. What was the name of this cult show that ran for four seasons?

9. Which teen sitcom revolved around a girl and the show she hosted on the internet?
