Richie Cunningham's father and Ricky Nelson's daughter team up to solve things, though they should really be attending to their regular work in my opinion.
This was part of a scavenger hunt in a "Big Bang Theory" episode.
Jan Arrah is Element Lad in the Legion of Super-Heroes. The number of He is 2 (atomic number of Helium). I think the clue sends the gang to the comic store. (The episode reruns tonight.)

You have the show correct.
I was disappointed that the clue was never displayed, since the spelling and
capitalization made a huge difference in unraveling the clue.
"Riddle me this, Arrah, Arrah, and gather round.
The work of this hero is Legion-bound.
He multiplies N by the number of He,
and in this room the Thing you'll see."
Jan Arrah is ELEMENT Lad of the Legion of Super-Heroes.
The atomic number of N (Nitrogen) multiplied by the Atomic Number of He (Helium)
gives us (7x2) 14, the Atomic Number of Silicon.
"The Thing" is a superhero who appears made of rock. The main elemental component of
rock is commonly Silicon. The clue did not take them TO the comic book store.
It took them FROM the comic book store's Riddler display to the next location,
This show originally aired from 1952 to 1958. The first two seasons were shot in black and white; the rest were in color. They were all AIRED in B&W, however, until syndicated to local stations in 1965. (I know it's an early show, filmed for the most part before I was born. But I'm almost certain that everyone playing this game has seen it in reruns.)
there are really no other clues. I didn't think a Sally Field show would be that obscure, but I guess I did it again. the show was 'The Girl With Something Extra', Sally is married to John Davidson and has some kind of supernatural power, but it's nothing like Bewitched. I couldn't say or tell just what the power was-it was real murky, which may be a reason the show bombed.Some one else go so I don't derail the game again.
Don't know about the new (unless your talking about Drew Carey) but it's the old Price is Right that Bob Barker would repeat that quote whenever the range finder game was played. Apparently, DC doesn't use the line whenever he plays the game.
Yes then, that's right WW. BTW, thanks for checking in. I was about ready to post small talk with myself and then, wait to see if I would answer.

At some point, I'm confident I've heard Barker use the line.
After I posted, I realized I probably had it reversed and it was the OLD Price is Right.

I'm not clear what your point is then. I don't think I'm much older than anyone here. I thought the whole point of this game was to stir memories ,and realize-'oh yeah-I do remember that show !' I'm

In the "Jump the Shark" episode of Batman B&B, they go through all of the ways to JTS listed on that website, including having Ted McGinley on! :lol: George

C) The DC/Fawcett character must be Captain Marvel, now known as Shazam. I think the show is Beat Shazam George

Correct.
The early episodes were more dramatic. The later ones were more "campy," IMHO.
And Phyllis Coates was hotter than Noel Neill. :)

after playing a flying nun, the actress again starred in a show where she has special powers-it just was never clear to me what they were.

Sally Field was in "Gidget," but I think that was before "The Flying Nun."

this was after Gidget and the Flying Nun-she was married to John Davidson on the show-who had good hair if nothing else.

What I really want is a television show about fixing up taverns and drinking establishments that are
in danger of closing down.
Really? Ok, you'll want to tune in to this one...

(Two different shows-answer either to take the round.)

No, I'd actually prefer one where eating establishments are fixed by finding out what the
waitstaff's really doing when the owner's not there, via hidden cams.
Really? Then I have a different show for you...

I don't watch the Food Network, but at least the first show is familiar. Can't think of the title, though.

You can probably reconstruct the name if you think of what the show is designed to do...
(Besides "get viewers.")

BTW,
the first show is NOT a Food Network show, it premiered on SPIKE and airs there today.
At least in markets that HAVE Spike TV.

If you're going to bring a different actor in when a character returns,
at least try to fool someone and make them look a LITTLE alike.
In what world does Eli Wallach look like Otto Preminger, or either look
like George Sanders?
