Time Is Running Out On "The Simspons" Trivia Contest


Editor's Note: I've been running a trivia contest on the FOX hit series, "The Simpsons" for almost a month now and, quite frankly, I have very few entries. First prize is a copy of the book, "My Life As A 10-Year-Old Boy" by Nancy Cartwright, the voice of Bart Simpson herself.

As a result, I'm re-running my October 5th column again in hopes of getting more entires. My regular features including news and notes from the world of television and "This week in television history" will return next week.

This week I begin my second television trivia contest here at Suite101.com This trivia contest involves the FOX comedy series "The Simpsons." The winner will receive a free copy of "My Life As A 10-Year-Old Boy" by Nancy Cartwright, the voice of Bart Simpson herself!

"The Simpsons" trivia contest consists of ten questions about the show, the actors and guest stars. The object of the contest is to answer as many of the questions correctly as possible. The contest will run through Friday, November 30th. Please send your answers to me at F_Colin_Kingston@suite101.com. In the event of a tie, the person who sends the first winning entry will be declared the winner.

Your answers must accompany either the entire question or the number of the. For example: If question 1) was "On what network does "The Simpsons" air?", you could answer either by e-mailing, "1) "On what network does "The Simpsons" air? Answer: Fox" or by e-mailing me "1) Fox." The choice is yours.

Good luck to everybody who enters. Here are the questions:

1. What is Homer's middle initial?

2. What are the names of Marge's sisters?

3. How old is Lisa Simpson?

4. Who is the voice of Homer Simpson?

5. Julie Kavner, the voice of Marge Simpson, played Brenda on what famous live-action comedy series?
