Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Canadian actress and director, Sarah Polley, starred as the little girl Mary in the pilot episode which was called what?

Answer: The Inheritance

No stranger to Canadian tv, Polley would also go on to star in the show "Ramona" based on the Beverly Cleary books and "Road to Avonlea" as Sara Stanley. Of course, she is famous more recently for movies such as "Go" and the "Dawn of the Dead" re-imagining.

2. The comic book centered episode "Tales of the Undead" starred this "favorite martian" as Jay Star?

Answer: Ray Walston

Walston's character in this episode has been cheated out of the rights to his own comic creation. Interestingly, this kind of mirrors the rights issues that "Superman" creators Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster faced, but it is unknown if this influenced this episode's story or not.

3. What cursed antique does actor Colin Fox use in the episode "The Poison Pen" to create prophecies that lead to deaths?

Answer: quill pen

This is not the only episode that Fox guest stars in. In fact, he is also featured in the season 2 episodes "Tails I Live, Heads You Die" and "The Butcher". He also guest starred in another cult horror tv series, "Forever Knight".

4. Which actor from tv's "Just Shoot Me" guest stars as a gardener who uses a cursed mulcher to kill people in exchange for money in the episode "Root of All Evil"?

Answer: Enrico Colantoni

Not only does this episode feature one of the strangest antiques, the cursed mulcher, but it also features the second and last appearance of Micki's fiance, Lloyd. After realizing that Micki's new life of hunting down and retrieving cursed objects doesn't leave much room for him, Lloyd breaks off the engagement.

5. What cursed antique is featured in the episode "Wedding in Black" which features guest star Carolyn Dunn?

Answer: snow globe

While she may not be a readily recognizable actress, Carolyn Dunn is familiar to anyone who has watched "Friday the 13th the Series". Considering she was in four episodes of the show and often playing Ryan's love interest, people even speculated that she was dating the actor who played Ryan, John D. LeMay, but that was not true.

6. Another actress who was in four episodes, Kate Trotter, starred in what season 2 episode that featured a cursed antique radio?

Answer: And Now the News

This episode also featured actress Wendy Lyon who was in "Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II" and "Anne of Green Gables" as Prissy Andrews. She was not the only person from the "Avonlea" universe to appear in an episode. In fact, many of the actors and actresses who were either in the "Avonlea" movies or tv show also guest starred on this show.

7. While not featuring very well known guest stars, the season 1 episode "Faith Healer" was directed by what famous director?

Answer: David Cronenberg

This episode marked Cronenberg's return to the small screen. He had previously directed several episodes for Canadian shows in the early 70's. Many fans of "Friday the 13th the Series" consider this episode to be one of the best.

Answer: pool cue

Many actors and actresses from "Friday the 13th" appear in other works together. Justin Louis shares one of these connections with Sarah Polley from the pilot episode. They appeared together as husband and wife in the "Dawn of the Dead" re-imagining.

9. What former "Law & Order" ADA and "Crossing Jordan" star appeared in several episodes?

Answer: Jill Hennessy

Acting in multiple episodes as different characters on this show is not an uncommon thing. However, Hennessy has the distinction of being one of the guest stars who has been in the most episodes in a single season. Of the four episodes that she appeared in, one was in season two, but the others were all in season three.

10. One of the show's beloved guest stars, Denis Forest, appeared in what episode in which his character turns his wife into an obedient dog with a cursed dog leash?

Answer: My Wife as a Dog

Even though the premise to this episode sounds silly, many consider it to be Forest's powerful performance in it that makes watching it worthwhile. But, Forest was also talented in other aspects as he dabbled in painting, sculpting, and writing.
