2 points each

1. From the base to the tip (that is, largest end to smallest end), name the 3 colors in order on a standard/classic piece of candy corn

2. If you've ever watched the NFL on Fox, you've seen this athletic-looking robot. What is his name? Hint: sorta sounds like part of athletic gear or a character from the Dukes of Hazzard.

3. What are the three original names of the colors that Crayola changed for various reasons? The new color names are Peach, Midnight Blue, and Chestnut. One change was for sensitivity reasons - two of the colors had geographic names in them.

4. In English grammar - everyone's [no one's] favorite subjects...there are 14 punctuation marks (a mark that divides a piece of writing into sentences, clauses, etc. according to yourdictionary.com). This question uses 9 of them. Note that multiple-mark ones like brackets[] and points of ellipsis ... count as 1 punctuation mark each (each character isn't counted). For one point each, can you name the five other punctuation marks (NOT used in this question)?

5. What Hollywood power siblings (who passed away in 2016 and 2018) had a short cameo in 1993's Hocus Pocus as an older disgruntled couple, the brother playing the part of the devil?
