Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What two stars of "Six Feet Under" had noticeable roles in the high school flick "Can't Hardly Wait"?

Answer: Lauren Ambrose (Claire) and Freddy Rodriguez (Rico)

Lauren played Denise, Preston's best friend and Freddy played T.J., one of three sidekicks to Peter Facinelli's Mike Dexter. Eric Balfour (Gabe) is also part of the large cast of "Can't Hardly Wait", however his character Hippy Guy (Steve)was not a big part of the movie like Lauren Ambrose and Freddy Rodriguez's characters were.

2. There is an actor whose character's last name in "Can't Hardly Wait" was Fisher (the last name of the family on "Six Feet Under").

Answer: True

Seth Green played Kenny Fisher, an old friend of Denise (Lauren Ambrose) whose "gotta have sex tonight" in "Can't Hardly Wait". The two end up together at the end of the movie, sort of.

3. Four of the regular cast members of "Six Feet Under" have starred opposite Mel Gibson in a feature film.

Answer: True

Lili Taylor starred opposite Mel Gibson in his kidnapping thriller "Ransom". Freddy Rodriguez starred opposite Mel Gibson in "Payback", Eric Balfour played Mel Gibson's daughter's boyfriend, Cameron, in the romantic comedy "What Women Want", and Ed O'Ross (Nickolai, the florist guy) had a part in "Lethal Weapon" and oldie but goodie in the Mel Gibson filmography.

In the 1995 movie "Clueless", directed by Amy Heckerling, Jeremy played Elton who was consistently trying to hook up with Cher (Alicia Silverstone) while she was trying to hook him up with her friend Ty (Brittany Murphy). Eric Balfour was seen on the tv show "Clueless" in the fall of 1997.

Answer: Peter Krause

Peter guest starred as Daniel Musser in two episodes of "Party of Five" in 1997 -- "Fight or Flight" and "Zap". Lauren Ambrose also appeared on "Party of Five" but I didn't include her in the list of choices so I would not confuse you!

6. What other 1990's television show (which aired back to back with "Party of Five" for several seasons) did Peter Krause guest star on (this time in 1992)?
