These questions were written to be asked in Toronto on 2017-01-23,
and should be interpreted accordingly.
On each question you may give up to two answers, but if you give
both a right answer and a wrong answer, there is a small penalty.
Please post all your answers to the newsgroup in a single followup,
based only on your own knowledge. (In your answer posting, quote
the questions and place your answer below each one.) I will reveal
the correct answers in about 3 days.
All questions were written by members of 5 Easy Pieces and are
used here by permission, but have been reformatted and may have
been retyped and/or edited by me. For further information see
my 2016-11-26 companion posting on "Questions from the Canadian
Inquisition (QFTCI*)".
* Game 2, Round 2 - Canadiana Entertainment - "SCTV"
A few questions about the classic Canadian TV show "SCTV" that
launched the successful careers of all its stars.
1. What was the name of the fictional town where the fictional
SCTV broadcast from?
2. Hosers Bob and Doug McKenzie hosted what show?
3. Which actor portrayed "Human Sexual Response" host Dr. Cheryl
Kinsey?
4. Who played talk show host Sammy Maudlin?
5. What was the name of the promiscuous, boa-wearing entertainer
portrayed by Catherine O'Hara? Full name, please.
6. What was the title of the soap opera that included the characters
Billy McKay and Dr. William Wainwright?
7. What was the name of the animal-print-wearing station manager
played by Andrea Martin? Full name, please.
8. What was the name of John Candy's character, an unscrupulous TV
personality who hosted shows like "Street Beef"? Full name,

You will be provided with a list of four people who are, or

Given the athletes' names, tell us the sport or event/discipline.
Rather than telling people what type of answer is desired, in this
medium I'll just say that you should *always answer with an event
or discipline if it makes sense to do so*. If only the sport is
wanted and you have the right sport, your answer will be considered
correct; but if an event or discipline is wanted and you only give
the sport, you will be ruled wrong (insufficiently specific).
Answers do not repeat.
1. Carl Pettersson, Thomas Bjørn, Thorbjorn Olesen, Henrik Stenson,
David Lingmerth.
2. Gustavo Kuerten, Guillermo Vilas, David Nalbandian, Nick Kyrgios.
