[Pesci]

To Pesci's question, is the answer The Wonder Years?

Yep. Go ahead.

In Sons of Anarchy, you'll be hearing the acronym, SAMCRO a lot. What does this stand for?

[TKz]

This actor hails from New Zealand, got his start in a Soap based in Australia and is mostly well known for his portrayal of which two filthy rich antagonists in which two popular american television shows?

A small hint: he dies in both shows.

I want the actors name, the two roles and the two shows!

OI!!! He was Vice President in Season 2 of 24 too!

I'd know that if 24 didn't bore me to tears. >_>

And the answer to ruderrocket's question is: Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club, Redwood Original Charter. Took me a little while to remember the bit after Redwood.

In Prison Break, Federal Agent Alexander Mahone had a 'dark' backstory regarding a convict he had apparently failed to catch. What was the name of the convict and what happened to him?

Not only did I already answer, but you didn't even give the full name!

[TGC]

I only remember what happened to the poor chap, not his name. That reminds me, I should really watch that fourth and final season of PB sometime.

[Farmer Reil]

Oscar Shales, and in spoilers because I'm kind:

he kills him and buries him in his backyard. Because he's not kind. ¬_¬ Which IIRC is also the reason that he divorced his wife, in case she found out.

Indeed old chap!

Go and shoot on with a question of your own, gentle sir.

[Farmer Reil]

A nice easy one because I can't think of a good question that's not ridiculously hard:

Name the three original Biker Mice from Mars.

(as an aside, my original question was going to be: Only six characters have appeared in three Star Trek series played by their original actors, name the characters. But then I realised that I could only name five off the top of my head, and one of those was really obscure. So... anyone know, without googling/IMDBing, for a bonus Ubernerd point?)

[badotori]

Aw man, I had a bit of Lost spoiled for me then. Gosh darn it.

...Yeah, I didn't think that question through, did I? Sorry Split, should have used spoiler tags. I'll make sure it doesn't happen again.

And, I never watched Biker Mice From Mars...which now feels like a bad decision.

Moto, Throttle and Vinny.

[Farmer Reil]

Eh, close enough. Modo was a stupid name anyway, and is pronounced the same throughout most of America.

[zero]

Who composed the theme song to Rugrats and what band is he or she the lead singer of?

[YI]

It was the bloke from "Devo"...but fuck if I don't know his name.

[zero]

Good enough, it's Mark Mothersbaugh of Devo.

[YI]

Because I can't be arsed to think of anything difficult.

What's the worlds longest running sitcom?

[TKz]

I think The Simpsons is.

[EddieG]

The Simpsons ?

[YI]

Nope.

[TKz]

NO! IT'S THE SHITTY BBC ONE!

Last of the Summer Wine.

You would have gotten away with it too, YI, if it weren't for the fact that I know you watch mostly nothing but british TV!
