Re: My Bizarre Quiz...

You guys are good!! Great job so far...did i make it too easy for you???

Re: Re: My Bizarre Quiz...

Not quite. I was close to grasping at straws. I almost tried to claim that "port" was a color.

Re: My Bizarre Quiz...

(quid, i was thinking the same exact thing when i was making this up.. )

Re: My Bizarre Quiz...

Publish or Perish and Mind Over Mayhem:

Initials are "MOM" and "POP."

Murder Under Glass is initialed "MUG," having to do with coffee.

Re: My Bizarre Quiz...

Excellent job David...that was my favourite one...I just thought it was kinda cute.

Now to my disclaimer...I sorta made a mistake on #4.......I know..I know...let me hear you all groan...it really should be only 4 titles not 5, because one of the props is actually the murder weapon in a way.
Heck..I wouldn't sweat too much on the last two questions because the answers are kinda dumb.

Re: Re: My Bizarre Quiz...

Somehow I missed Etude in Black (sorry cass, I know he's your guy) and I was willing to accept port as a color.

Re: My Bizarre Quiz...

I should have included port as a color...
And what do you mean TFL?...when you say you missed Etude, do you mean you haven't seen it?

Re: My Bizarre Quiz...

Great quiz.

For #1: Are these the only titles where additional punctuation is used? The colon and the hyphens?

Re: My Bizarre Quiz...

Regarding the prop question:

Book?
Blueprint?
Negative?

Re: My Bizarre Quiz...

Yay! Yay! Yay!....Great job E!
You got it right about the punctuation thingy..
And the props thing too..the last one would have been Any Old Port in a Storm..where a bottle of port is in the episode. The one that I messed up on was I originally included Short Fuse in this category, but a short fuse was actually the murder weapon.

Thanks to everybody, I sometimes screw these quizzes up, and I did a bit this time, as I said, I aint no Headache...but I'm trying.....Yay!!

Re: Re: My Bizarre Quiz...

Of course I have seen Etude in Black, like most people on this board I have seen every Columbo. What I meant was I didn't think of Etude when I was thinking of titles with colors. I just thought it was ironic that I didn't think of that title considering who came up with this quiz in the first place.

Re: My Bizarre Quiz...


Very cute TFL!

And I sort of thought you had seen it..but I just misunderstood you. But you would be surprised how many people here, who post regularly, haven't seen all the episodes....myself included. I have seen all the original 45 but very few of the newer ones.

Re: Re: My Bizarre Quiz...

Very clever & original quiz Franco! You did yourself proud!

Re: My Bizarre Quiz...

thanks birthday buddy!! (and thanks for calling me franco...i love it!! )
