Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In the medical show 'House M.D.', Gregory House (Hugh Laurie) has a love interest played by Lisa Edelstein. Who is this?

Answer: Lisa Cuddy

Dr. Lisa Cuddy is the Administrator and Dean of Medicine of the hospital at which the series is based. As such, she is often at odds with the sometimes weird approach that House applies to his treatments.

2. Patrick Jane (Simon Baker) works under the direction of which feisty boss, played by Robin Tunney, in 'The Mentalist'?

Answer: Teresa Lisbon

Patrick Jane's wife has been murdered, and he joins the CBI as a consultant, solving cases on the way to finding his wife's murderer, 'Red John'. Always on the periphery of the plots is the possibility of a 'connection' between Jane and Lisbon. Jane's deductive powers put Poirot and Holmes to shame.

3. In 'Inspector Morse', Chief Inspector Morse (John Thaw) pursues criminals (and love interests), with the assistance of which Detective Sergeant played by Kevin Whately?

Answer: Lewis

This detective series is set in and around the University town of Oxford (England) where Morse studied. Driving a vintage car, and appreciating fine wine and opera, Morse makes life hard for Lewis, but they work well together.

4. Michael C Hall plays Dexter Morgan in this series, 'Dexter'. In season five, Julia Stiles guest stars as which partner in crime with Dexter?

Answer: Lumen Pierce

Lumen Pierce has been rescued from a gang of rapists by Dexter, whom she witnesses executing one of them. Together, they hunt down and kill the rest, becoming closely attached along the way.

5. In 'Bones', FBI agent Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz) works closely with which scientist, played by Emily Deschanel?

Answer: Temperance Brennan

Temperance 'Bones' Brennan is the straight-laced, literal forensic pathologist who is Booth's partner and real love interest in this show. Montenegro and Saroyan are her co-workers and Burley his short term girlfriend.

6. Although in a relationship, Ian McCallum (John Hannah), also has feelings for which co-worker played by Zara Turner in the series 'McCallum'?

Answer: Angela Maloney

McCallum and Angela Moloney work together as coroners, while Joanna Sparks is his live-in partner. To be fair, the 'sparks' only begin to fly while Joanna is overseas for a lengthy period.

7. In 'Midsomer Murders', DCI Barnaby (John Nettles) is ably assisted by which sergeant played by Daniel Casey?

Answer: Gavin Troy

Although the others were cast characters, Sergeant Troy is Nettles' best-known assistant in 30 episodes of this excellent British Crime show. For a 'quiet' country location, the setting seems to provide more than its fair share of violent crime.

8. Callum Keith Rennie stars as Det. Ben Sullivan in 'Shattered'. Camille Sullivan plays his partner. Who is this partner?

Answer: Amy Lynch

Ben Sullivan continues to have blackouts and personality changes in this police show, 'Shattered'. His son has disappeared and his wife left him. The usual police cases are interspersed with these issues.

9. 'Haven' stars Lucas Bryant as Nathan Wuornos on the police force in this Maine township. An FBI agent arrives in town and stays, solving various mysteries. Played by Emily Rose, who is she?

Answer: Audrey Parker

Based on a Steven King story, 'The Colorado Kid', the small town of Haven is the scene of mysterious happenings, not the least of which is the history of Audrey Parker. The main male character, Nathan Wuonos, a local cop, has the unusual trait of literally 'feeling no pain'.

10. Hercule Poirot (David Suchet) is often assisted by this character, played by Hugh Fraser. Who is he?

Answer: Captain Hastings

Poirot employs 'the little grey cells' to solve mysteries with the help of Hastings, Japp and Miss Lemon. One of Agatha Christie's protagonists, Poirot has a very well-developed sense of self-importance. Fraser also featured in the excellent 'Sharpe' series of films. Colonel Mustard? Wrong game :-)
