Perhaps it's worth adding to a trivia section that (assuming every person/thing has an equal chance of winning every matchup, Beyonce has the highest odds of winning (1/32 = 3.125%) while Kurt Russell, Russell Crowe, Russell Brand, and Russell Simmons are all tied for having the worst starting odds (1/256 = .391%).[[Special:Contributions/108.162.219.91|108.162.219.91]] 09:19, 25 May 2015 (UTC)

Changed the reference of the Title Text from Doctor Who (who is already listed in the comic) to Dr. Dre, as the phrasing of the Title Text seems like a very direct reference to the 2001 song "Forgot About Dre."

Probably would have been better to add it as an option since we're clearly far from certain - Stumpy


Pretty sure Doctor Who is covered by "The Doctor". He doesn't go by "Who" in the show. He's just the Doctor.

I think the missing doctor is House.


Dr. Pepper, maybe? Does "staring" or "forgotten" have to do with it?


Whatagainnow?


Dr. Oz? Dr. Phil? Dr. Watson? Dr. Kavorkian? Dr. Seuss? Wasn't there a famous literary work, The Lost Island of Dr. Moreau? I agree that Dr. House and/or house calls could be a missing candidate for the bracket. But then, there are a ton of 'Sirs' that didn't make the list. GAKDragon 06:43, 25 May 2015 (UTC)GAKDragon


Or is "The Doctor" http://en.memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/The_Doctor?


It's Doctor House - definitely and finally!


Definitely "Doc" Brown: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emmett_Brown


What's the connection between Rip Torn and Natalie Imbruglia? Answer: Her song, Torn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VV1XWJN3nJo


Any pairings that you'd add, given the opportunity? Personally I always confuse Wilson Pickett and Wilson Phillips. Studley (talk) 08:28, 25 May 2015 (UTC) Will Ferrell and Pharrell Williams for me! - Stumpy --- Why do some first round pairings have more than two people? Beyoncé starts at the third round, so it can't be just because of the number of people. There has to be a joke in them but I don't see it. --141.101.104.176 08:45, 25 May 2015 (UTC)
