2026 pop culture anniversaries quiz: Elvis’ debut, Oprah’s show

Once again, lets look into the future by looking at the past and celebrate some of the notable pop culture anniversaries we’ll be marking in 2026. And this year, we’ve added a twist: each anniversary will have a quiz question to see how much you remember. And no matter how well you do on the quiz, you’re sure to say “it’s been that long?” when you recall these events.

Newsday’s Meghan Giannotta and Arielle Dollinger contributed to this quiz.

Andy Edelstein, Newsday’s entertainment editor, supervises coverage of TV, celebrities, movies and pop music. He has written three books on popular culture, including “The Brady Bunch Book.”
