You did not have a comment section about your contest about props. So I will comment here. Perhaps the ultimate TV prop is Fonzie's leather jacket. It is in the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC, and I have seen it there. The Happy Days show had da Fonz in a sweater in the first episode, because they were afraid of backlash that the leather jacket meant he was a criminal hoodlum. Luckily, they changed their mind, and decided to be historically accurate. But you failed to include another totally iconic prop in your quiz, which is also in the aforementioned museum, and that is Archie Bunker's chair.

Hey MeTV staff, Did you put the wrong year on this quiz? At the top it says January 4 2018, But the 4 comments are dated 25 days ago and 3 months ago. And mine is from today, March 29th 2019. And this is March 29th 2019. So what is going on?
I think what happened is what I've noticed in the past: When I've run across quizzes from a year or so ago, METV I've noticed has removed the comments. I don't know why they do this, but this is what I've noticed. Perhaps its not their doing, but this is how Disqus operates. Only so many comments can be "saved" once the amount has been filled so to speak, they dump them and wipe the slate clean to make room for new comments.

When MeTV decided to change comment form, from Disqus to what we have now, all comments under Disqus were removed.
If you find a quiz before the change, you might find a comment, from me, stating a few days ago, on a quiz from 2018.
