TV Show Mash-Up

[bfh 0]

How about trying a new game?

You can use any clues you want, anytime you want to identify a TV show, as long as it's your turn.

The TV show should be fairly obvious from the clue(s).

For instance, you could use:

• A one liner, such as "To the moon, Alice."
  
• A pictionary clue
  
• A line or lines from the theme song
  
• A sentence describing the overall plot - like in the "What's this movie?" thread
  
• A list of secondary characters.
  

Plus, if you use a one-liner for your first clue and nobody guesses it, your next clue could be a pictionary clue.

Please, no long dialogue quotes. I envision a faster-moving, easier game.

And, like the other games, only the person with the correct guess can post the next clue.

Here's a clue to get started:

Here's the story of a lovely lady

There already is a thread "Name that TV Show," using dialogue to represent a show. It sort of died away, but could be brought back.

On the other hand, giving other types of clues might be a good, new thread. (It's reminiscent of the old Nostalgia Thread.)

Anyway, bfh's show is obviously "The Brady Bunch."

This one may be a LITTLE tougher, though I expect several people here will get it quickly:

Jack Larson

Phyllis Coates

John Hamilton

[GeorgeStGeorge 116]

Really? No one? Let's add a few names.

Jack Larson

Phyllis Coates

John Hamilton

Noell Neill

George Reeves

You've GOT to get it, now!

George

[Raf 465]

I got it the first time, but just now reading the thread.

That was, of course, Superman.

Next show clue:

"Up your nose with a rubber hose."

Vinnie Barbarino said it often in "Welcome Back, Kotter."

New Show:

A three hour tour

[GeorgeStGeorge 116]

Gilligan's Island. And it was never "Ginger or Mary Ann" for me. It was "Ginger AND Mary Ann"!

Ironside?

Hey George, is Ironside right or wrong, correct or incorrect, a yes or a no?

Inquiring minds want to know!

[GeorgeStGeorge 116]

"Ironside" is correct.

New One:

"Make it so."

"Star Trek: The Next Generation."

Neat. Sweet. Petite.

"Star Trek: The Next Generation."

Neat. Sweet. Petite.

George

The Addams Family.

However it's spelled.

Here's another tack.

This television show had Harpo Marx as a guest-star. And Van Johnson.

I know Harpo appeared on "I Love Lucy" (with a classic "mirror" skit). Van Johnson may also have appeared on ILL, so that's my first guess.

Van Johnson appeared in the episode immediately preceeding it-"Dancing Star."

Harpo Marx appears in the episode "Harpo Marx."

Yours again, George.

[WordWolf 749]

BTW, the classic mirror skit was a reprise of the one Groucho and Harpo did in "Duck Soup."

In the show, Harpo is the one looking into the "mirror."

New Clue:

No soup for you!

[Human without the bean 31]

Easy. Seinfeld.

Nue Klue:

A blond, straight hair, an afro.

[WordWolf 749]

Was that "the Mod Squad"?

[GeorgeStGeorge 116]

That would be my guess...

George

[Human without the bean 31]

Was that "the Mod Squad"?

Yes it would. Your go wordwolf.

[WordWolf 749]

You say Bruce Lee was one of the main actors of this TV show? Yes, he was.

And in Hong Kong, they said he had the title role.

[GeorgeStGeorge 116]

Another adventure for the Green Hornet, his aide, Kato, and their rolling arsenal, the Black Beauty.

Like "The Mentalist," but funny (and came first).

Psych?
