Sunday night, Mad Men won the Best Television Drama Golden Globe, and gave a shout out to Basket of Kisses, where my sister and I blog about Mad Men.
Therefore, today’s trivia is all about television dramas that have received nominations from the Golden Globes. Have at!

(Finally, a trivia contest here that I know some of the answers to–thanks, Deborah!)
#5: Melrose Place?
#3 – Kojak
Could #6 be The Defenders? (That would be a neat Mad Men connection!)
Not Melrose Place. Every show here has had a Golden Globe nomination.
is # 5 China Beach?
#7 must be The Mod Squad, with Omar Epps (House, MD) and Claire Danes.
^That’s the movie, not the T.V. show, that starred Epps and Danes. 🙂
#7 could sort of be The Mod Squad with Omar Epps as the star of the nominated show (House) and Claire Danes as the frequent nominee (although I only see one nomination and a win for My so Called Life…).
Denis Leary is actually the frequent nominee, but you got it.
#2 – Man from UNCLE?
I can’t believe I didn’t get the Mod Squad. I’m the only one who saw it.
