Tres couldn't recall what Christina's World looks like. As most people around here know, Christina is looking away in the painting, so you can't see her face.

Tres couldn't get the Elvis question, so I'm not surprised he didn't know the Sinatra one. Easy for Bored Buddies, though.

And thus we have a rare instance--perhaps the only one--where Terry Crews says the full name of the show.
