“When you used to tell me that you chase Ed, deep down I thought it was just a metaphor.”
Well, I hope everyone spent the weekend boning up on She’s All That, early UPN comedies and Mary’s “hairgel”. Who knows when you’ll need to whip those out?
So, we’ve got two rounds down and four more to go. As I always say, when we’re this early, it truly is anyone’s game. Now, the way the schedule will work is the same as last week. Two rounds (today and Wednesday) with the answers up on the following days.
You have until Tuesday morning February 10th by 6:30 a.m. EST to send me your answers. Answers can be sent to theedzone@gmail.com or via private message on Facebook. As always – do this off the top of your head. No Google. Yahoo. Wiki. Psychic hotline. Nothing!!!

Apparently i drank or slept thru the 90s altogether…hope I can do better if there’s a “21st Century Edition” 🙂
Okay… after I sent my answers in, I am reading the questions to Ron to see what he knows ( he got #1 right, for the record, I also never saw that movie and didn’t even make a guess.), and we disagreed on the #5, but I didn’t know how to look up a movie quote. He said to put the whole quote in the google bar – which I did and I was right ( of course, GUY movies!). So I was checking #7 the same way, and the only thing google came up with WAS ED’S SITE! Too funny…and I still don’t know if I guessed right.
re #7 – of course I guessed wrong…I really must think no one but Homer talks in the Simpsons
I read waaay too much into the questions…#5 “forever INJECTING DOUBT” I’m thinkin a lawyer type character, which i thought made sense since Vinny was a ‘lawyer’. haha Can’t believe I was torn between Raymond Burr(Perry Mason), Fonda from 12 Angry Men and Jack Klugman (Dr quincy – cuz of the ‘injecting’ word use). So bad so bad….lol
Ok of all the SNL “movies” that were listed shoudn’t Sprockets been the one should have been made? I thought I read somewhere Mike Myers was trying to do so back in the 90’s but it never came together. How does It’s Pat and Stuart Smally get a movie. Also, didn’t make a movie based on the “Ladies Man” skit as well “Superstar”, which I was ok with. “Night at Roxy” the list goes on and on, yet no Sprockets!
Stacy, that “reading too much into the questions” comes from all that studying we did for the nursing board in the 90’s. Hey Ed, since this is back to the 90’s, can Stacy and I get some questions from the nursing boards? Maybe then I’ll get a few right LOL But then again, what if I don’t?
@Tracy R – Sure, I think I caught a few minutes of Naughty Nurses 4 – Bedside Manners on Skinemax sometime in the mid-90’s so I’ll see what I can come up with from that.
@ Natisha and Sarah – let’s take those guys in front TODAY! I’ll cover you with my best-guesses, and you take over the lead!
