Are you the ultimate TV series expert? Test your knowledge with these perplexing puzzles that have left even the most dedicated telly fans scratching their heads.
The on recently challenged a couple to decipher the names of three iconic TV shows from mere visual hints, and it was no walk in the park. Can you crack the code?
First up was a puzzling image of a man looking bewildered beneath two signposts pointing in opposite directions alongside a map.
The female contestant quickly suggested ‘Lost’, the hit drama about plane crash survivors, which aired from September 22, 2004, to May 23, 2010, spanning six seasons and 121 episodes.
Despite her initial uncertainty, she decided to go with ‘Lost’ and was thrilled when the host confirmed her guess was spot on.

Then the next teaser featured an illustration of three men with thought bubbles. One read: “I’m going to rob a bank.”
The second said: “I’m going to kidnap someone for ransom.”
And the third man’s bubble declared: “I’m going to burn my ex’s house down.”
This stumper had the contestants at a loss. To help them out, host Ezz hinted the answer lay within the image itself and encouraged them to dissect what they were seeing.

Revealing they believed the men pictured were harbouring “bad things” or “criminal things” in their minds, the pair gradually deduced they were indeed hinting at ‘Criminal Minds’. Beaming with the realisation, the duo was ecstatic to learn their guess had hit the mark.
The American television series ‘Criminal Minds’ follows a team of FBI criminal profilers from the Behavioural Analysis Unit. Launching in 2005, the gripping series has now reached its 17th season.
Finally, an image depicting a majestic tree atop a hill led the couple to swiftly and accurately identify it as the popular TV show ‘One Tree Hill’.
Viewers at home were taken aback by the spot-on guesses, with several admitting they hadn’t seen those answers coming. One viewer commented on the picture featuring three men: “I was thinking Mad Men since you have to be mad to want to do all that.”
Another viewer concurred, noting: “Criminal Minds was tricky.”
A different viewer humorously noted: “the first one I was like ‘DORA, THE EXPLORER’.”
