Odds and ends
Reality bites: No one knew TV reality show "Vanderpump Rules" is a spinoff of "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills", or that MTV's "The Hills" was spun off from "Laguna Beach".

Correct Qs: DD1 - What are the Bahamas? DD2 - What are noble gases? DD3 - What is "man, my son"? FJ - What is "Rent"?
