Parenthood Trivia Quiz

Answer: Braverman

The Bravermans are the family that the show "Parenthood" centers on. The father is named Zeek, and the mother is Camille. They have four children, Crosby, Adam, Sarah, and Julia. Adam married Kristina, and they have two children, Max and Haddie. Sarah married and divorced Seth Holt, and they had two children together, Amber and Drew. Julia married Joel Graham and they had a daughter named Sydney. That leaves Crosby, who was not married when the show began, but has a son named Jabbar.

Answer: He is an alcoholic.

Haddie's parents gave her several reasons why she should not date Alex. Not only was he too old for her (he was 19 and she was 16), but he was also too grown up for her. This was not because of the age difference, but because he had been homeless and lived as a grown man and not as a teenager.

The biggest reason, however, was because he was once an alcoholic. He had been sober for six months, but Adam and Kristina still didn't like the idea of their 16-year-old daughter dating an alcoholic. They did not forbid her dating him because he was black, though Haddie believed this was the case.

Answer: Asperger syndrome

Max, Adam and Kristina Braverman's son, suffers from Asperger syndrome, which is a form of high-functioning autism. Max did not know this until episode 17 of season 2, and Adam and Kristina had the difficult task of explaining autism to their son in episode 18 of season 2.

Answer: Basketball

Alex plays basketball a lot, and is very good at it. He teaches Max to play, under the suggestion of Haddie. He also played a game with Adam Braverman, who did not really want Alex to play, but ended up seeing how great of a player he was and how good he was with Max.

Answer: "I see you, I hear you"

In the beginning of season 2, Zeek Braverman was struggling with his marriage to Camille. When he got angry, he would calm himself down by telling Camille, "I see you, I hear you". This was also the title of the first episode of season 2. He did not just tell this to Camille, though. He began saying it to anybody when he began to feel mad or frustrated.

Answer: Bugs

Max loves to study and collect bugs. Because of his Asperger's, he has bad communication skills, but a great memory, and he is able to tell you about nearly any bug, including where it lives, its diet, and its average size. He loves bugs, and for his birthday party, his parents hired him a man (who also happened to have Asperger's) to perform a bug show.

Answer: Guitar

Amber Holt, Sarah Braverman's daughter, plays the guitar. She started when she was very little, and her dad taught her to play, before he and Sarah divorced. Amber also sings, and writes her own music and songs.

Answer: Julia

Julia Graham was obsessed with having a second child with Joel, her husband. She did everything she could to become pregnant, including calculating the days she would ovulate and taking medications to become pregnant.

Answer: Gaby

While Jasmine was away, Crosby had an affair with Gaby, Max's behavior specialist. He once dated a girl named Katie. Racquel is a woman who likes Joel, and tried to kiss him even though he's married, and Renee is Jasmine's mother.

Answer: Sarah

Maura Tierney was originally supposed to play the part of Sarah Braverman on "Parenthood". However, she had breast cancer, and in 2009, it was announced that the show would have to be moved. Tierney was replaced by Lauren Graham. Sarah once worked at the shoe factory with Adam, but wrote during her free time. In episode 18 of season 2, she was told she should become a playwright.
