And deliberately so, for a change :)

Both correct nevertheless. And no, they didn't have character names.

Okay. Adding in towns/cities now which may (or may not) help.

Right program, but it's not the Simpsons - they live at 742 Evergreen Terrace. There's a clue in the name of the street though.

Damn. Just after I'd posted the clues too.

Well done, another quiz bites the dust. Better ring 001-555-2368 and ask ol' Jim to investigate how on earth Vegy managed to suss those out :)
