Sure! Let's go through each sentence and determine if it is possible or not:
1) Did you watch TV last night?
Yes, I watched a new drama series and last night was the first episode.
- This sentence is possible. It asks if the person watched TV last night, and they respond by confirming that they watched a new drama series, which happened to be the first episode.
2) Last night they broadcast the first episode (possible?)
- This sentence is possible. It states that the first episode was broadcasted last night.
3) What was it called? It was called The Survivors.
What was its name? Its name was The Survivors (I think this is not possible).
- Both versions of the question are possible. The first version "What was it called?" is a common way to ask for the title of something. The second version "What was its name?" is also grammatically correct, but it is less commonly used in reference to TV shows or movies.
4) It was very good but when I was watching the end of it, my friend called!
- This sentence is possible. It expresses that the person found the TV show very good, but their friend interrupted them by calling while they were watching the end.
5) Was he having (it "taking" possible) a piano lesson at 11.30?
- Both "having" and "taking" can be used in this context. The sentence is asking if the person was having or taking a piano lesson at 11.30. Either verb choice is grammatically correct and conveys the same meaning.
