That's so awesome! I'm unbelievably crap at it apart from the one's that are completely and utterly obvious and that have no point in even posting. Most I just don't know though. number 2 is bugging me, I'm sure it's on the tip of my brain and actually 3 and 5 too. I thought I knew 3 but now I have the doubts on it...
They missed out lesbian on 11 and I LOVE that you have 13 on your list! Only one I don't know is 15. OH! I just re-read it and realised that it says historical and not hysterical! Lol, I was trying to think of a sit-com in which all these carbon copy members of a family lived under one roof! I apologise for any inconwenience, I get it now.

2) Tried Darjeeling Limited, summary said Darjeeling Limited in it THREE times!
3) Tried Brick, came up with 'brick jokes' only.
4) Gave up. Time for bed and ep 4 of Nighty Night.

All right except 12 and 13. Try again!! I'm not sure if you'd know 13, actually, but you've definitely seen 12.

Hooray! All right. You're the first person to get Freaks and QAF! I don't think you've seen 3 actually, so it may be slightly difficult for you to get it. No-one else has got it yet, so I'll leave that one for a while and see if anyone can come up with it! 5 is TRON, which Tara correctly guessed.

I knew QAF actually natbat.
I thought of Tron for 5 but didn't seem right to me so I failed.
