Roots Television | Og Blog

This Friday, September 29th, is Roots Television's Fabulous First Birthday! Og is soooo very excited! He wishes he could share a super giant piece of fudgy chocolate birthday cake with all of his friends. Since no one has invented a sufficiently satisfying virtual dessert, we thought the next best thing was a good old-fashioned party game. So get ready for the first RTV Scavenger Hunt.

Og's come up with six very tricky questions, listed below. It's your job to dig through the Roots Television archives to find the answers. Hint: a good place to start is to check out our searchable Program Guide. We'll choose the winners at random from those entries that have the most correct answers, and we'll send those winners some dynamite Roots Television gear. So synchronize your watches - you have until Monday, October 15th to email Og your answers (og@rootstelevision.com)
