Ten of thirteen, but some were guesses. I thought I knew this episode well - just not well enough.

I got 11 out of 13, but on the two missed ones, I first thought of the correct answer and then second-guessed them!

Me too! I’ve been watching it EVERY year for the past two decades. And occasionally I’ll come across an episode or two I’ve NEVER seen. Of course that could be chalked up to my falling asleep during the show as it goes all day and night. 😆

12 out of 13. I should have gotten #6 correct, but didn't. I guessed on #8 and got it right, BUT, it's not a fair question. It's not really about the TZ episode !
