(Son of) House Trivia Quiz
Published August 10, 2008
Back in March, I posted a House Trivia Quiz to amuse and entertain House fans during the final days of the writers’ strike hiatus. And now as we head into the final month before the season five premiere (September 16, if you weren’t already aware), I offer you a brand new trivia quiz. I hope you all enjoy it, as I set sail for the wilds of Alaska on a very much needed vacation. See you when I return with the answers. Enjoy.
Product Placement
Ah, the ubiquitous product placement: a name on an MRI; a label on a CAT scan machine. Real products in the hands of fictional characters lend them a tinge of realism and a bit of promotion for the product. Name the product and its brand.
1. Favorite bottled water brand in the diagnostics department.
2. House’s energy drink — comes in an orange and blue bottle.
3. House seems to go nowhere without his; Wilson has one too.
4. House listens to his vintage vinyl on this.
5. House is a one-brand man when it comes to guitars.
6. The one with the ginormous scrape.
7. Amber was never far from her mobile phone (before she died, anyway).
8. The laptop of choice these days ‘round PPTH.
9. House’s expensive headphones.
10. A gift from the Arnello brothers.
Now, Where Have I Seen That Face Before? House Guest Stars Elsewhere Seen
It’s always fun to go to the movies and be surprised to recognize a series guest star in the cast. Sometimes I spend half the movie trying to figure out where on earth I’ve seen that face (or heard that voice) before. So, who are these folks and what have they to do with House?
1. Gotham city’s mayor
2. Gotham corrupt cop
3. Been to Guantanamo Bay
4. Mighty Aphrodite
5. May have met up with Wilson’s alter-ego in a 1989 film
6. Paranoid paramilitary guy out to hurt Scarecrow and Mrs. King
7. She watched her husband try to go to the moon
8. The Greatest American Hero, himself
9. Eleanor Roosevelt
10. Playing to type as Toy Story’s animated Sarge
Music and House
The House soundtrack can almost be named as a separate character. It sets the mood and tone of those lovely and dialogue-free montages and gives us insight into what the characters are thinking. Name the episode and situation for these evocative House tracks.
1. “Not As We” - Alanis Morissette
2. “Human” - Civil Twilight
3. “Passing Afternoon” - Iron and Wine
