I've given you the name of a character in a movie or tv show that has been portrayed by John Goodman. You give me the name of the movie/show.
1. Dan Connor
2. Andre de Soto
3. James P. "Sully" Sullivan
4. Walter Sobchak
5. Uncle Sweetheart
QOD: Goodman has had several tv series in the past few years that haven't gone anywhere. Which one of them had Ed Asner and Olympia Dukakis as his parents.
5 Point Bonus: What former Department of Defense employee fits into this category?
1. Roseanne
2. Dunno
3. Monsters, inc.
4. The Big Lebowski
5. Dunno
QoD: pass
Bonus: Maybe Linda Tripp? for the SNL thing?

Wish I understood the title of this round...
1. "Roseanne"
2. Was this "The Big Easy"?
3. "Monsters, Inc." (and "Cars")
4. "The Big Lebowski"
5. "I Played the President for a Couple of Weeks on 'The West Wing,' Too"
QOD: Nope.
Bonus: I was planning on giving a joke answer to this, until I realized that the joke was that it's probably who you were thinking of! Linda Tripp!

Why do I want to say Linda Tripp? What the hell, it cost nothing. Linda Tripp, final answer!

12/14 WHAT A CHARACTER!
This one was a mess up, I wrote to name the actor, rather than name the movie. Hence the change.
1. Dan Connor
ROSEANNE
2. Andre de Soto
THE BIG EASY (One of my favourite movies, not because of John Goodman)
3. James P. "Sully" Sullivan
MONSTERS, INC
4. Walter Sobchak
THE BIG LEBOWSKI (One of my favourite movies, mostly because of John Goodman)
5. Uncle Sweetheart
MASKED AND ANONYMOUS (Thought there might be a few Dylan fans in the audience)
QOD: Goodman has had several tv series in the past few years that haven't gone anywhere. Which one of them had Ed Asner and Olympia Dukakis as his parents.
CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE
I was upset when they yanked this one, although I liked it more for Asner and Dukakis than Goodman.

Yes, sometimes the joke answer is the right answer. Ha!
