About this quiz

What you’ll practice

These questions sharpen your recall of famous TV news anchor sign-offs, matching closing lines to the right anchor, show, or era. You’ll also build recognition for phrasing differences that separate similar catchphrases.

Each question uses 4 options and there’s no timer, so you can focus on accuracy over speed. Before you start, choose how many questions you want and set difficulty to match your comfort level—Mixed blends easier classics with tougher deep cuts.

Common pitfalls to avoid

A lot of players mix up anchors with similar delivery styles, or confuse a network tagline with an anchor’s personal sign-off. Another trap is remembering the sentiment but not the exact wording, which matters when options are close.

  • Watch for near-identical phrasing (one extra word can change the answer)
  • Don’t assume the most famous anchor is always tied to the quote
  • Separate station slogans from personal sign-offs
  • Use time period clues (era, network look, or program style)
  • If two options feel right, reread for tone: formal, folksy, or signature catchphrase

How the difficulty stays balanced

Mixed difficulty is designed to start with more recognizable closers and gradually introduce less-quoted sign-offs, so you can build momentum. If you want a smoother run, lower the difficulty; if you want more curveballs, raise it and increase the question count for a longer session.
