Quiz From the Dark Side
« on: March 08, 2007, 07:01:39 PM »
Even if you're too timid to take their Blood Quiz, at least check out the 1st page: QUIZ FROM THE DARK SIDE on Lifetimetv.com

The quiz isn't perfect but it's definitely fun, and a guest at the last Fest is a consultant for the site.

Thanks, Julia99!  :D

I got 8 out of 11, which isn't bad considering I don't watch half those shows.  I think I got that one about the vampire on that old soap opera right  ;D

I got:

Quote
The Underworld Oughta Be Scared of You!

Your Score: 11 out of 11.

You could slay a vampire, vaporize a few ghosts or kick some demon butt without even breaking a sweat! It's obvious that you've studied up on your creatures of the night.

But then, I watch or have watched all those shows with the one exception of Eeire, Indiana - and on that one I guessed the right answer.  ;)


I do have one complaint, though - couldn't they have spelled Barnabas' name correctly?  ::)

Apparently the Underworld can be scared of both of us.  ;)

Yes, and I was wondering if the Ghost Whisperer really saved Aisha Tyler's character from the "afterlife" (I mean, she DID cross over eventually with her soul intact, right?) but I do know how she died.

Myself, 8 out of 11. They featured Barnabas as the graphic for the quiz, and yet still manage to spell his name wrong in it. Fun quiz though, thanks for the link!

I got 7 out of 11 which seems very high given that I only watched about four of the shows involved.

That new series, Blood Ties, looks like a bit of cheesy fun for late nights.  If any cousins tune in, I'd be curious to see a review.  I don't have cable so won't be watching.

Um, yeah, I got four out of eleven.  :-[

Oh well, at least I'll keep all of the vampire slayers and other supernatural investigators employed.  ;D

However, I did get the one about Barnabas right, and that's all that matters, right?  8)

Thanks for the fun quiz, Midnite!

Did they give the correct answers anywhere?  They gave me a final score, but at no time could I find out what the answers were!

I don't think they did, Josette. But after this topic runs its course, or the quiz disappears from the site (whichever comes first) either Midnite or I will post the answers for anyone who's wondering what questions they might have missed.  :)

My sad sack score was 6 of 11.  ::)  I haven't seen most of the shows on the list and since I consider "Ghost Wisperer" to be a pale imitation of "Medium" I've only seen a couple of those.  I would like to know what I actually missed or didn't miss though.

On Lifetime TV's web site under the topic of their new vampire show, Blood Ties, there is a quiz to see how much you know about "spooky stuff"...one of the questions concerns our own Dark Shadows. Go here if you want some fun:
PS: I only got 8 out of 11--who can do better? ;)

Hey!  They corrected "Barnabus'" name on the quiz!  At least they didn't call him "Barnaby" Collins originally.  I've seen that mistake quite a few times.
