I concocted this game based on the comedy of Jeff Foxworthy's "You Might Be A Redneck If..," and J. Anthony Browne's, "You Might Be Ghetto If..." This one I'll call, "You Might Be A Dick Van Dyke Show Fanatic If...(creative, huh?)." There are only 12 questions (and a bonus), but I think they're telling. Here's how you play:
Read each sentence, if it applies to you, on a piece of paper write a check mark. After you've read all twelve, count your check marks and score yourself (below).
Ok? Here goes!
1) If you can find your way around the Petrie's house blindfolded, You Might Be A Dick Van Dyke Show Fanatic (hereafter, "YMBADVDSF")!
2) If you know either of Laura's maiden names, YMBADVDSF!
3) If you know Rob's rank upon discharge, and from what branch of the military, YMBADVDSF!
4) If you know who calls who "Berferd," and why, YMBADVDSF!
5) If you know how old Laura really was when she married Rob, YMBADVDSF!
6) If you know the Petrie's address by heart, YMBADVDSF!
7) If you know which two people Rob punched in the nose in the same episode, YMBADVDSF!
8) If you know all of Richie's middle names, YMBADVDSF!
9) If you sometimes find yourself mouthing the dialog along with the cast, YMBADVDSF!
10) If you know the name of the Bodysnatcher who became Laura's alter-ego, YMBADVDSF!
11) If you know why It was fortunate that Rob broke Laura's foot when he did, YMBADVDSF!
12) If you get that warm, cozy feeling inside at the start of each episode, YMBADVDSF!
BONUS - If you know Laura's favorite Chinese dish, YMBADVDSF!

Scoring the number of check marks (Be honest!)!
1-2= Former Watcher :(
3-4= Watcher :)
5-6= Avid Watcher :lol:
7-8= Borderline Fanatic :crazy:
9-10= Fanatic :cuckoo
11-12= Hopeless Fanatic :bonk:
All 12+ Bonus= Have yourself committed!:wave:

Tell us how you did!!!

Oh, Steve!! I got all 12 plus bonus. I believe my husband would agree that I need to be committed!!! You should make that a quiz on the website that does the DVDS quizzes. I have the address bookmarked! Does that make me really crazy?!

I guess I need tutoring because I scored a 9 - Fanatic. :(

Nuts, I missed question 5. I wasn't sure how old Laura really was when they got married. Haven't seen that episode in a while. I got the rest of 'em correct, though.

I guess I'll have to be committed at a later date!

Not at all, TVgen62. Remeber, 'fanatic' status is what you're shooting for, anything more than that is just plain nuts (I should know)!

Well, not that it's any shock to me (or my wife & kids), but I guess I need to "have myself committed". :crazy:
