<div>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." <br />
<br />
Probably would have been better to add it as an option since we're clearly far from certain - Stumpy <br />

Pretty sure Doctor Who is covered by "The Doctor". He doesn't go by "Who" in the show. He's just the Doctor.<br />
<br />
I think the missing doctor is House.<br />
<br />
----<br />
<br />
Dr. Pepper, maybe? Does "staring" or "forgotten" have to do with it?<br />
<br />

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.

Or is "The Doctor" http://en.memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/The_Doctor?<br />
----<br />
It's Doctor House - definitely and finally!<br />
----<br />
Definitely "Doc" Brown: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emmett_Brown<br />

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

Any pairings that you'd add, given the opportunity? Personally I always confuse [[wikipedia:Wilson Pickett|Wilson Pickett]] and [[wikipedia:Wilson Phillips|Wilson Phillips]]. [[User:Studley|Studley]] ([[User talk:Studley|talk]]) 08:28, 25 May 2015 (UTC)<br />
[[wikipedia:Will Ferrell|Will Ferrell]] and [[wikipedia:Pharrell Williams|Pharrell Williams]] for me! - Stumpy<br />
---<br />
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. --[[Special:Contributions/141.101.104.176|141.101.104.176]] 08:45, 25 May 2015 (UTC)<br />

Probably not talking about doctor who, however he could be referencing The Silence, which is a an alien race, on that show, which you immediately forget about after losing sight of it.</div>
