I’ll explain the most popular ones :)

Q1:Astrophysics – The Big Bang Theory
Q2: Biker – Sons of Anarchy
Q3: Paper – The Office << very popular show about paper supply company Dunder Mifflin. Not “newspaper”, not “scientific paper”. Just regular paper :)
Q4: Winter (…is coming) – Game of Thrones
Q5: College – Community
Q6: Day – 24 << This is the most popular question according to the poll and your comments :) The whole twist of the show is that each season takes place within one 24 hour period. Each episode is 1 hour of “real time”, 24 episodes in a season. One season = one day. This is why "day" was unique to this particular show.
Q7: Copywriter - Mad Men << This is the hardest one IMO if you haven’t seen the show. It is about ad agency. To simplify: copywriters are employees of ad agency.
Q8: Escape – Prison Break
Q9: Chemistry – Breaking Bad << My favorite show that inspired me to do this quiz :)
Q10: KGB – The Americans << This show is not as popular as the rest but could be easily googled.

That’s it. I hope you had fun! This was my first ever puzzle. I enjoyed it more than I expected so maybe I will do another one in the future :)


Original post:
I am very bad at solving puzzles, so here is a very bad puzzle for you to solve :D

Guess the names of popular TV shows using… wait for it… a single word as a hint! I’m a genius, I know. Obviously this “hint” is connected to the show in a major way.

Example:
Q: Zombie
A: The Walking Dead

GAs ended! Click HERE to try!

What’s at stake? 3 games from recent bundles with over 90% positive reviews. GA’s will run for the next 30 hours (ends midnight CST), so hurry! :)
Vote for a question you find most confusing and I may add more hints later.
As usual don't share results and don't forget to bump if you solved it.
EDIT: This puzzle is very easy and many have solved it, so I am not sure if any additional hints are incoming. You can find minor ones in comments. Just re-read what I said above.

If you don't watch as much TV as the rest of us you are already a winner :D

Ok, I can't believe I just got Q3 correct... :o
I don't know the show, so I didn't think it's right. :D

Anyway, Q7 and Q8 left. Nobody seems to have problems with Q8 though... :/

If you don't know #8 then you must have missed one of the best shows ever! :)

I just got Q8! :D I never watched that series, but if it's as good as you say, I might watch it. :)

I actually got the answer by accident, when I checked a list of the best TV series and accidentally clicked the last instead of the first entry. :p

Actually there is only one show that fits perfectly. Once you figure it out you will be like "ah, right".

yeah, but i have no idea what i am looking for, daily tv show, show with "day" in name, opposite of day (twilight, vampire :D)...

The opposite wouldn't describe the TV show and it would be too obvious if the show already has the hint in its name. :)

Bump for finally solved. I don't really watch tv anymore and some of these were difficult to search for because of the 1 word clues. I have only seen 1 of the shows and there are 3 I never even heard of. Thanks for the puzzle and games though, it was fun.

Bump for solved! :D

I finally got Q7, which was definitely the hardest one for me. I never heard of that series and I just checked several lists of best TV shows and typed every single name in when suddenly the text area turned green! :)

I actually only watched two of the shows and started watching another one of them a while ago. Never heard of 4 of the ten series.

Thanks for the giveaways and the puzzle, it was very enjoyable! :D
