This quiz is difficult if you aren’t familiar with the ’80’s decade. At least you tried! (Sorry for the late reply) 🙂
Forget the score, it’s gaining knowledge that’s important. 🙂
7 of 9 I hope you do a follow up because some of my favorite 80s actresses weren’t represented Kellie LeBrock Molly Ringwald & Ally Sheedy
Yes, I will be creating a new quiz shortly, thanks for playing this quiz, you got a great score!
got 4 out of 9 right!
Thanks for playing Edith 🙂
Five out of nine.
Great! Thanks for playing! 🙂
7/9 isn’t that bad…
I’d say it was greeeeeaaaaat! Thanks for playing 🙂
I guess I went on a lot of dates back in the 80’s
Thanks for playing! 🙂
The pleasure was all mine
Got a terrible score of 1. And I know a number of these actresses. Apparently not well enough.
At least you tried. Unless you watch TV during this decade, it’s difficult to know the answers. Thanks for taking the quiz. 🙂
4/9 Oouuuhhh…
5/8 – mostly guesses because I honestly don’t know anything about any of these – some of whom I’ve never heard of!
Scoring 5/8 is pretty good considering. Thanks for playing. 🙂
5/9 good quiz
Thanks for playing! 🙂
Got 6 correct. Did not know Kate Jackson was on Dark Shadows.
Didn’t know it either. Thanks for playing 🙂
Makes perfect sense, thanks for at least trying.
i got 3/9 not much known about 80’s actresses but while reading this quiz I understood that these were there at that time.
Well, just think, now you have learned more about the ’80s and at least took the time to take the quiz!
You got 4 out of 9 right!
Me too Not born that time.
At least you attempted it and 4/9 isn’t that bad! Good try!
