  • 14:12:30: QM @gauravsabnis will conduct a TV visuals quiz in 20 mins - hop aboard.
  • 14:27:32: Hello folks. @gauravsabnis here to do a TV visuals quiz. Will start in about 10 minutes.
  • 14:28:01: Every visual will be taken from or associated with a TV show. You just have to identify the TV show. Fairly easy stuff.
  • 14:38:52: Alright, the TV visuals quiz is about to start. 3,2,1 for the first 3 correct responses.
  • 14:39:53: Simple concept. There will be a visual. Identify the TV show it is taken from or associated with. Starting with a demo question (no pts).
  • 14:41:03: Q0. Just as a demo. And to check attendance levels. Identify the show. http://ow.ly/i/7vj6
  • 14:46:19: Alright, decent attendance. That was really a sitter. Most of the quiz is very easy too. My return to kweezzz after ages, so exkooj.
  • 14:46:49: Q1. Identify the show this building is associated with. http://ow.ly/i/7vjF
  • 14:48:28: Whoops, forgot to give the answer to Q0. That was Seinfeld. The restaurant used as the exterior for Monk's.

  • 14:52:52: Poor @amit_das was undone by being too specific. Had he just said The Office, he'd have got it. He added UK to it, hence wrong.

  • 14:54:31: Crap! Crap! Crap! Crap!!!! Question cancelled. Uploaded the wrongly edited pic. The answer is right there. :(
  • 14:55:31: I feel so stupid. It would've been interesting to see how many South Park fans get this.
  • 14:57:21: Wow, even with the answer right there in the visual, people are giving answers other than South Park. :P New Q2 coming up.
  • 14:57:54: That was the first real video used in South Park. Pam Brady as the dead girlfriend of Mr. Adler, the shop teacher.
  • 14:58:35: Q2. Famous, even historic location. Visual often used in which show? http://ow.ly/i/7vkI
  • 15:02:19: Most people are stumped. Clue - it's a statue of a young Babe Ruth.
  • 15:06:37: A2. The Wire. Statue of Babe Ruth outside Oriole Park in Baltimore. Points only to @thecricketcouch and @anirudhpatil
  • 15:08:02: Q3. Which show is this location associated with? http://ow.ly/i/7vlo
  • 15:12:36: A3. Cheers. Exterior of the bar. Points to @manishkrishnan @namit93 @shrinipedia

  • 15:40:54: A8. Arrested Development it is. The Bluth family's only mode of transport. Points to @raytida @thotaster @achals
  • 15:41:33: Q9. Which show? http://ow.ly/i/7vo8
  • 15:46:21: A9. Battlestar Galactica. Skyline of Caprica...or Caprica City if you will. Points to @raytida @achals @akshayshishoo
  • 15:48:16: Q10. Couldn't find the exact visual from the show. But identify the show whose episodes ended with plates like this. http://ow.ly/i/7voF
  • 15:48:56: @raytida 5 minutes per response is quite par for the course.
  • 15:51:09: A10. That 70s Show. "Hello Wisconsin!!" Points to @raytida @shreyasgopinath @pitusultan
  • 15:51:32: That's 4 consecutive 3 pointers for @raytida. Despite missing the first half of the quiz, he is now in the lead.
  • 15:52:43: @raytida Agree with the thumbrule. Do it when answers pour in. But for BSG, got only 4 or so in first 3 minutes.
  • 15:53:16: Q11. Visual from which show? http://ow.ly/i/7vpd
  • 15:56:42: A11. Community. That's the flag the group designs for Greendale. Motto - E Pluribus Anus. Points to @raytida @thatvinitguy @pranavbakliwal

  • 16:00:19: A12. Dexter it is. The kill room. Points to @raytida (groan!) @achals @theholycrow
  • 16:01:14: Q13. IMPORTANT - Points only for the answer with 3 words, not 2, if you know what I mean. Show? http://ow.ly/i/7vpV
  • 16:02:56: A13. Yes Prime Minister. The table wasn't there in yes Minister. Points to @achals @pranavbakliwal @pitusultan
  • 16:05:25: Thus ends the TV visuals quiz. Winning with 18 points (six consecutive 1st corrects) is @raytida. 2nd @achals - 14 3rd @shreyasgopinath - 8.
