"Honey, I'm Home!" - a famous TV homes quiz. See number 8! :o) There's a bit of interesting trivia about it and Angel's mansion on the quiz answer page.

The only ones I got right were Buffy and Roseanne. I find it interesting that all these shows about normal, middle-class families used frickin huge houses for exteriors. I guess that's TV for you.
Well....Sunnydale supposedly had obscenely low property values, so it wouldn't blow my mind that Mrs. Summers could get a house with THAT big of a lawn. Guess we know of one use Mrs. Summers had for Slayer speed and strength ;D
I got 6 of 10 right. *needs a life*

Actually, alot of the ones I got right were process of elimination. It seems like I watched the shows that the pictures weren't of.
I got 6 out of 10...but I've never seen half of the shows mentioned so I'm pretty happy with that.
snap! we must have been doing the quiz at the same time edclovers9
Considering how many of those shows I haven't seen, I did pretty well.
I only got two right. Buffy and I Dream of Jeannie.
I got 6 of 10 right. *needs a life*


Hm..I got 8 right.
What does that make of me?
It makes you more savvy and way cooler than me.
I've been by that house of Buffy's (in Torrence, not Sunnydale) and the lawn isn't really all that big, they used a weird lens when they took that photo. I got 6 of the 10 right, which is probably shameful (shows I've watched way too much TV in my life). Of course mostly I was getting the oldest shows right.
I got 9 out of 10 and I was not even born when some of these shows were on the
air. *Really needs a life*
Even with low property values, one wonders why Joyce would pay for a 3 bedroom, 2 story house for just her and Buffy. She didn't know about Dawn yet, and she couldn't have been planning to have more kids.
6/10. Yikes. The tangible consequences of an apparently misspent youth.
I got a 7 and I really thought I had a 9 (with one pass). What can I say, those earlier shows were pretty much the only thing on at the time...with 5 just tv channels.

These all seemed pretty obvious to me except for the BtVS house...from that angle it was hard for me. I wouldn't have got it if it wasn't included in the post description and that would have been embarrassing if the only one I really didnt know was Buffy's pad.
Buffy's was one I missed. A bit embarrassing, I would say.
They blew up the I Dream of Jeannie house for a Lethal Weapon movie?!

That ain't right...
*Blush* Ten for ten... and I've never even seen The OC. Just a good guesser, I suppose.
6/10 but I was distracted. Why don't these houses have a front fence? Is this normal? Wouldn't you have to mow the lawn more often if everyone could see it? Wouldn't people be able to see in your windows from the street? Yep, my mind was wandering and I'm sticking with that excuse.
Very few houses in my neighborhood have a fence in front... granted, the hills make it more difficult.

I got 5/10, mostly guessing since I think I've only seen Buffy out of those - and I got that one wrong because it didn't look the same to me.
Hey, Joyce was thinking... She used that third bedroom for extra gallery storage pre-Dawn. Apparently there's never enough room at that gallery, since Joyce takes over Buffy's room as soon as she leaves for college in "The Freshman" by stuffing it with even more crates.
1/10, and that was just because I figured 8# had to be Buffy, or this would never get posted here.
Five out of ten, but that was inspired guesswork apart from 1630 Revello. I hadn't even heard of half the shows - which comes of being British, mainly. I'd recognise the houses from The Good Life...
