8/12.

I don't like that you can't find the actual answers, as I was stumped on the ABC shows I didn't get to watch when I was a kid.  We didn't get ABC.

Twelve of twelve!  That first one was the toughest (I never watched it).

What a freaking loser I am!  I can't name the ten amendments on the Bill of Rights, but give me an 80's theme song quiz and I'm perfect!

 :P

I knew some of them because my parents watched 'em, and I was at least sitting in the room until after the theme song...until I got to know the songs and knew to leave ::) 

Suggestion - listen to the whole song before selecting.  Some of 'em are a bit screwy since they're midi's.  Think about it.  The Dukes of Hazzard should be a slam dunk, but I had to LISTEN to it for a bit before I got it.

If'n you REALLY care and want the answers, one of us can post 'em for you.

*edit*
Oh yeah, I got 12 too :-\

12 on the classic tv shows....man, those were WAY easier than the 80's theme songs!

11 of 12 on the mixed shows.  Maybe I just watched way too much tv in my youth :-\

I took all three, I switched st elsewhere and hillstreet blues.  Other than that I got them all right.   :-\ :-\  Doesn't say much for using my childhood to it's fullest.

On the plus side my wife and I no longer subscribe to any television service.  No cable no dish.  I have a pair of rabit ears to hook up for family guy, but that's it.

I got all of them correct, as well.  I watched a lot of t.v. in the 80's.    ::)
