See at first I thought it mean like Sea Bass..... ha yeah that threw me through a loop. Then I realized they meant like bass as in beat but for some stupid reason I tried "the trebles" instead of the sopranos. Just not my question to get right.

Did you watch the American remake or the original Korean version? As with most American remakes of foreign films they completely botched it, the Korean version is fantastic.

I only saw the Korean version. Thought it was horrible. From what I read about the American remake, it sounded a lot better. But I never saw it.

I actually kind of enjoyed Oldboy (the original, I never saw the Spike Lee version), even though it is very disturbing to watch and I can see why someone may not like it. The hallway fight scene is easily the best part of the movie.

For the Mad about me clue, I would go with "Happy about Me" instead of "Sane about me." I kept getting stuck on Crazy for the antonym of sane.

Mad, as used in the show title, doesn't mean angry (the opposite of happy). It means crazy, so sane is the best antonym

Monk isn't the opposite to a nun. I would say that the word "whore" is actually the opposite of "nun."

Perhaps try "Gregarious?"

For these kinds of quizzes, the opposite-gender version of something is usually considered an "antonym" (see: boy/girl). And if you're trying to say that a monk isn't exactly a male nun . . . well, shoot, I'd say it's close enough for government work.

I agree, "monk" is not an antonym for "nun." The only thing that is opposite about the terms is gender. Maybe not the best choice of a show to use in this quiz...not like there aren't enough other shows to choose from.

Agreed on this one, I don't think Monk is a good show for this quiz, there is not really an antonym for Monk...and Nun certainly isn't it.

Great quiz. I even got loads of shows I'd never heard of.

You should make a quiz like this but inverted, so we see the real tv show and then guess what tv show it is. Much easier.

This was fun. However, it is sad that every quiz I see the same few names fighting in the comments to try and prove who is smarter, who is better travelled, and so on. Why? So annoying to keep seeing the smug attitudes of some on here. It's just a quiz site, we do this for pleasure not to battle egos! If you want to impress people try being nice and not condescending. Don't be so serious and rude, your opinions on what is good/bad are not facts. Lighten up and stop inflicting the worst aspects of your personality on everyone.
