Written By: Indy Gent on 05/08/05 at 9:30 pm

This is similar to Doc Brown's quiz, only it's with families in hour-long or half-hour dramas. See how many of these shows you can guess from the surnames. All of these have are from one series unless I missed something. And limit 0.

TAN 1. Channing Falcon Crest

WW 2. Lawrence Family

CATV 3. Bradford Eight Is Enough

CLMB 4. Fairchild Knots Landing

WW 5. Sarnac Call To Glory

KAR 6. Carrington Dynasty

JEN 7. Bauer 24

CLMB 8. Pryor American Dreams

CATV 9. Stubing The Love Boat

KITT 10. Summers Buffy, The Vampire Slayer

JEN 11. Ewing (Two series here) Dallas/Knots Landing

KITT 12. Kent Smallville

BRAT 13. Willows CSI: Crime Scene Investigations

DB 14. Craig St. Elsewhere

DB 15. Bedford I'll Fly Away

DB 16. Chase My So-Called Life

CLMB Bonus added: Camden 7th Heaven

Doc Brown also wanted to add "Thatcher" which he was correct in answering Life Goes On.

I think I got #14, in fact I used to tell this joke with it:
Q: What's the message on Mother Teresa's answering machine?
A: ST. ELSEWHERE!
But I've retired it for obvious reasons.
