I would like to add to #10 that they were all theme songs that charted.
lol – Jody! I threw Charmed in there with #5 just because I figured it’d help you get it.
Also, there was a hint in that last one for ya too.
@Gemini: Close on the 2nd one but I think you were thinking of Boston Legal instead of Boston Public. The other’s got it though, they were all David E. Kelley productions. (As was Boston Legal so I see where you would have mistaken the two!)
@Scooter: Really? Awesome. I didn’t even realize that… Errr, I mean, yeah I totally meant for them to have that connection too.
And, yay, y’all got the rest! Glad it wasn’t too hard. I was afraid it wouldn’t be all that fun to try and figure them out.
Ha. I was going to guess show’s with three sisters for #5 because I’ve only seen FH & Charmed. But I was pretty sure Monk didn’t have 3 sisters.
The funniest thing, is that as soon as I read #10 I started singing “believe it or not, I’m walking on air, never thought I could feel so freeee” in my head, but I still never clued in that they were song titles! And of COURSE I should have known “I’ll be there for you”!
Also? You will laugh SO much harder at this in a few weeks. (You’ll understand then.)
Okay, I did it without peeking.
1. Phoebe Halliwell, Willow Rosenberg, Samantha Stephens, Sabrina Spellman – Witches
2. Snoops, Boston Public, Picket Fences, Ally McBeal – David E Kelley
3. George Feeny, Richard Belding, Seymour Skinnert, Van Clemmons – Principals. Also, Mr. Feeney!
4. Phoebe & Ursula, Tia & Tamera, Patty & Selma, Brandon & Brenda – Twins
5. Full House, Nash Bridges, Charmed, Monk – California? (this is a guess)
6. Dick Solomon, Isabel Evans, Mork, ALF – Aliens
7. Magnum, P.I.; Wings, Lost, Gilligan’s Island – ABC Shows? (this is a guess, too)
8. Richie Cunningham, Joan Holloway, Dana Scully, Wilma Flinestone – Redheads
9. Jefferson, Winslow, Bayside, West Beverly – High School
10. “Believe It Or Not,” “Cleveland Rocks,” “I’ll Be There For You,” “Bad Boys” – Theme Songs
Close, Jen! Just got the two location ones wrong, #5 & #7. Though California is probably close enough for #5.
Good guess on #7 tho! But Wings aired on NBC and Magnum and Gilligan’s Island were on CBS. As I’m sure you’ve seen, the connection there was that they all take place on Islands.
