Babylon 5 has made it - its a chosen subject on the British quiz Mastermind, normally known for people picking subjects such as The Crimean War or Queen Victoria's reign. In recent years, more pop culture specialist subjects have turned up, such as the Simpsons.

One thing I would say - whoever has picked the subject has limited it to seasons 1 and 2.

Wimp.

That does seem to be making it a bit too easy. Whatever next - specialist subject: Spoken dialogue from Buffy episode "Hush"?

Makes for a more interesting program than slugs, frogs, or kings of last 3 centuries. Yawn.

Not hard.

Four.

Four in two minutes.

I got eight, and I'm guessing that woman (a teacher! Teaching our nation's youth with that sort of dull intellect explains a lot!) genned up before hand - 44 episodes to watch a few times.

For the love of Kosh, she said Bill Mumy was ex of Tangerine Dream and did the music, and didn't even get the Drazi question.

She didn't do much better on the general knowledge - another 4.

To be fair, the questions are tough; the winner got 9 right in two minutes on his chosen subject (and I think the woman froze big time with a tough first question).

I think I got ten. I knew she wasn't going to do well when she let the green/purple Drazi question slide. My housemate is going to enter with the specialism "Blackadder Goes Forth". I'm thinking of entering with "aired episodes of Firefly".
