After using ATE on the vegetable question yesterday, I'd ATA on the TV question. Pop culture-they might be able to help.

$50K-easy for me. I'm a political junkie.

Yeah, the audience should be able to help you with a question about The Sopranos.

Especially the ones from Jersey!

$25K: I don't watch "The Sopranos", but I did remember from reading once on Wikipedia that Moltisanti was killed. I'll try the audience first. If nothing is definitive, then PAF.

A little unfortunate for Ethyl that this question was asked before Gov. Jindal made national headlines for his Kenneth the Page impersonation after Pres. Obama's address to the joint session of Congress.

No idea, but since I still have all my lifelines, I'll use one. ATA, please.

This is a $50K question? Considering how much he's been in the news lately I can't understand why this would be considered difficult.

That's lately. Back when the show was taped, Jindal had had some then-recent publicity during the GOP convention and some when he was first elected, but nowhere near what he has had since then.

This show was probably taped in October. As Nelly mentioned, that was before all the publicity from his recent speech.

It seemed like a risk using the ATE on this question. But I'm wondering how many in the audience were active viewers of the Sopranos and remembered who all the characters were and who had died etc. Now I realize that there was nothing to indicate that the ATE would know this.
