How the heck...

It guessed Saddam Hussein, Peg Bundy, Edith Bunker, Cliff from Cheers and Mrs. G from Facts Of Life pretty handily... I know I could stump it pretty easily by picking an obscure character (paging Famous Teddy Z... White courtesy phone)  but it's kind of fun how it works out with the common ones...

It took a slight effort to guess Sally from Coupling, but I stumped the system with Daniel Best from Best of the West, which, yeah, was pretty obscure to anyone who can't name three TV shows featuring Meeno Peluce off the top off their head. :)

It guessed I was Peterson from Red Dwarf.  Right show, wrong character.  I was Cat.

Are when I was trying for Cat it gave me a question 'Do you live in space with an over-evolved cat?'.  Did you add that one?

Nope, I added "Are you the last human being alive?" or something along those lines.

I think I broke it. I was Davy Jones from "The Monkees," and it guessed that I was Robert Kaletsch from South Africa. I did not know that Robert Kaletsch was English and played in an out-of-work band with three other men.

Who is Robert Kaletsch?  Google seems to report him as a tennis player or a... golf store.  Or a race car driver.  None of which is a sit-com star or famous dictator.

Yeah, I couldn't get a positive ID either. I could go ask a South African at PBG if he knows the name though. However, I'm working with the assumption that Robert Kaletsch is neither English nor a Monkee.
