For some reason, sitcoms are considered to be among the less sophisticated entertainment TV can offer us. Sure, they may not be overly complicated either in terms of writing or production, yet, ever since the genre appeared on the silver screen, it has never lost its popularity. And while we can all argue about which sitcom is the best *cough* Brooklyn Nine-Nine *cough*, let’s all admit that we enjoy them and are always down to watch a good sitcom. Once you’ve done that, you are ready to discover a new step, and that’s sitcom trivia.
One thing that works for TV show trivia is that you are exposed to it for so long, small details you wouldn’t normally remember about movies stick with you. It’s basically like remembering stuff about your family. If you are thinking about organizing a TV show quiz for a fun game night with friends, IMDB trivia will come in handy to collect info. You may also want to check out the official Wiki fandom pages, they are full of hidden gems.
For this article we collected enough TV trivia questions to last you for a couple of games. We even give you the answers in the first comment, so you won’t have to look for them. Don’t forget to let us know how many you scored. And if you know other curious trivia about TV, post them in the comments, because we love a good TV trivia game too.
