    * Game 7, Round 7 - Entertainment Geography - TV Series Settings

    We give you the title of two popular US TV series and you give
    us the *state* where they were *both* set. Some of these series
    are set in fictional cities, but the state is often referred to
    in the series. Answers will not repeat.

    1. "Designing Women", "The Dukes of Hazzard", both CBS comedies.

    Georgia -- Atlanta, "Hazzard County"

    2. "8 Simple Rules", "Home Improvement", both ABC comedies.

    Michigan

    3. "Family Ties", ABC comedy; "Glee", Fox musical.

    Ohio -- Columbus, don't know

    4. "Smallville", CW superhero drama; "Gunsmoke", CBS western.

    Kansas -- Smallville, Dodge City (?)

    5. "Mork & Mindy", ABC comedy; "Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman",
    CBS western.

    Colorado -- Boulder, don't know

    6. "Ally McBeal", Fox legal drama; "Banacek", NBC detective drama.

    Massachusetts -- Boston, Boston

    drama.

    Oh, and if you want to show off, supply the city or other place
    name in each state for each show as well. Go back and give the two
    place names (or "don't know" and one place name) in order according
    to the two titles in the question, in a style like "Ontario --
    Toronto, Ottawa". No second guesses allowed. I won't report
    individual scores on each answer, but I will report who got how
    many right, out of 24.


    * Game 7, Round 8 - Entertainment - Band Lineups

    We will provide you with the lineup for a well-known rock band,
    you give us the name of the band. All lineups are from the band's
    glory days; no reunion lineups here.

    Neil Young.

    These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2012-03-12,
    and should be interpreted accordingly. All questions were written
    by members of Footloose and Firkin Free, but have been reformatted
    and may have been retyped and/or edited by me. I will reveal the
    correct answers in about 3 days.

    For further information, including an explanation of the """ notation
    that may appear in these rounds, see my 2021-07-20 companion posting

    are set in fictional cities, but the state is often referred to

    This was supplied to me in a draft version with 14 questions, and
    I don't know for sure which ones were used in the actual game.
    I'm deleting two questions -- one that was used and one that may
    not have been -- where it turns out that the shows actually used
    settings in two different states, and I'll be counting all 12 of
    the others, so this round will be scored out of 48.


    1. "Designing Women", "The Dukes of Hazzard", both CBS comedies.

    2. "8 Simple Rules", "Home Improvement", both ABC comedies.

    3. "Family Ties", ABC comedy; "Glee", Fox musical.
