Didn't do very well on this quiz. Was wondering if you can change or accept the actors name for Star Fleet Captain as well or instead of the charater name as that was a little frustrating. Thanks

Iowa had better get with it. This is a weak list.

Except for Andy Williams. Shoutout to Andy. Even if you don't like his style of music (and I am not a big fan), you gotta admit he had an amazing voice.
