Laughing at the Hitler and Britain choices more tbh. Doenitz is curiously left-field too.

Though shouldn't laugh too much at the Hitler one given I just realised how laughably wrong my choice was

So you're tellling me that OT, a forum where a page without Simpsons references is considered a page wasted, doesn't think of the Simpsons as the most obvious US sitcom? The hell people

Haha, I realised not long after I sent the list that I should have chosen the Simpsons. Wouldn't have got any more points than I ended up getting though.

Yeah IIRC Himmler was in custody and in the process of being put to trial when he capped himself. I don't think Berlin had even fallen when Goebbels took out himself and his whole family.

I guess I assumed that "captured" = accused. Oh well. Goering defs the obvious correct choice.
