50 free Jane the Virgin trivia questions with answers. Jane the Virgin took a telenovela premise, a devout 23-year-old accidentally inseminated at a routine checkup, and turned it into one of the most acclaimed comedies of its decade. This quiz covers the whole five-season run: the Villanueva women, the Rafael-versus-Michael triangle, Petra and her scheming twin, Rogelio de la Vega and his telenovelas, Sin Rostro's ever-changing face, the Latin Lover Narrator, the guest stars from Britney Spears to Brooke Shields, and the Golden Globe and Peabody wins. The easy questions ask where the show is set and who plays Rafael. The hard ones want Petra's birth name, what killed Michael the first time, where the pilot was filmed and the broadcaster behind the original Juana la Virgen. It suits anyone who watched all 100 chapters, and it will humble anyone who only watched the first two seasons. Every answer was checked against Wikipedia's articles on the show, its five seasons and its cast, and each question carries the sentence that backs it up.
