5/15, Never watched it, pure guesses.
I got 7 out of 15 – 46%
Uh-oh! Though you knew a few of these “Father Knows Best” trivia questions, you unfortunately did not answer enough correctly to pass our test today – but that’s okay! “Father Knows Best” is over 50 years old, and though it is one of the most syndicated shows of all time, it really does take someone who has seen all the hilarity and wonderful episodes to know the finer details of the show’s history – so we don’t blame you for missing a few! With that said, this show captured an entire generation and arguably set the stage for the entire future of sitcoms and television – so you better start watching those reruns and get caught up!

Well done! From the origins of Jim to Betty, you are an expert on “Father Knows Best”! This show captured an entire generation, and arguably set the stage for the entire future of sitcoms and television. It was one of the most watched shows in the 1950s, and is still syndicated today in dozens of languages across the world – and you know it like the back of your hand! Great job.
I got 8 out of 15!
I remember many an evening sitting by the TV watching this show, but I obviously let a lot of the trivial items pass over my head.

Father Knows Best is generally believed to take place in the Midwest, but the exact location of Springfield has never been mentioned. So why will this quiz only accept Ohio as its location?
