Please note:

answers are not case sensitive
there are no commas in the answers
there are a few apostrophe’s in contractions – and I’m giving you both the apostrophe and both sides of the contraction (for example it’s is i’s)
there is one hyphenated word, and I treated that like a contraction – the first letter dash first letter of the second word
when an answer has a number in it, I gave you the whole number.

I won’t know if this is too hard until you try t a bit, but if it is too hard, maybe I can give you the topic for each.

Good Luck.

No, but my source tells me that it's a slogan originating in 1964.

No, but I didn't expect anyone to get it without a hint. (Hint: It's a spy guy.)

I'm very surprised that you guys got so many right considering there was no one topic.

And although you probably don't need it, here are topical clues to the remaining answers:

tess, television
rms, architecture
nkc, music
t’sarfj, advertising
tssn, architecture
tuncle, television
sefc-itrae, movies
llsc, television

BOLO for more games using the auto-check system. It's not all that sophisticated - you could cheat and edit your responses, for example - but the honor system is okay with me and it will make it a whole lot easier for future games. (I just tested a name that tune in the test forum, but they are songs I've used before and probably way too easy for you guys.)
