Thursday Thirteen: Golden Girls Trivia Challenge
Another Wednesday has rolled and around, and I realize that I have not posted the answers to my Thursday Thirteen from two weeks ago! Thea from I'm a Drama Mama was the only person to get them all correct. Way to go, Thea! But I must add that Malcolm from Pop Culture Dish got most of them right as well. (His recent pledge to not use the internet on quizzes is quite commendable.) Thanks for playing everyone!
Here are the answers from two weeks ago. Click here to see the post.

2. Rachel McAdams and Tina Fey were in Mean Girls.
3. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are in Baby Mama.

It's obviously been far too long since I've seen Golden Girls--I couldn't answer ANY of the questions! Well, except the last one. I think Blanche was my favorite. Unless I've mixed up the names....

I sent the responses. I haven't watched in a while so I have forgotten a couple of the answer. I always make a guess, sometimes I am right.

I am a huge fan of the Golden Girls too, I haven't seen it in awhile as it is on very late here, but I always enjoy watching for the good laughs.

I loved the Golden Girls, but there's no way I can remember ALL those names. Happy T13!

Great list idea, but I'm afraid I did not do well at all... :(
Happy TT :)

Oh, dear. I'm afraid I always wanted to just slap every one of those golden girls a good one.
Guess I won't be doing well in the trivia contest...;)
