Ah, that was more like it-- we righted the ship this week and handily won the pub quiz, thanks to some perfect scores on the final round, and in one called "In the Navy," which I correctly guessed would be all about Popeye.

Some questions:

How long did the Montgomery Bus Boycott last? 351 days (Craig) - he overshot a little, but that's okay. This was presented to us as a multiple choice question.

What's Olive Oyl's brother named? Castor (Rebecca) - This came from seeing the movie about a jillion times.

What was the name of the main character on Have Gun Will Travel?Paladin (Craig) - Mr. Barker's clearly seen Stand By Me one or two times...

Identify three of the characters (costumes) in the original Village People. Cop, Indian, (Craig), Biker, Construction Worker, Soldier (Brian) - still a few outstanding. Thinking that "In the Navy" might be more obvious than it was, I did do some Village People research beforehand and was able to add real names to the characters we guessed. Owning Can't Stop The Music didn't hurt either.
