"Elseworlds" is used in the teaser. I think it's the name of the crossover (as, "Crisis on Earth-X" was, last year).

Well, the annual crossover starts this coming weekend (in the US). No Legends, just Flash, Supergirl, and Arrow. Supergirl and Arrow (so far, and presumably Flash, tomorrow) have a great teaser. Barry Allen (John Wesley Ship, in his old Flash uniform) crawls across a landscape strewn with bodies (fallen heroes, presumably) reaching for a book, which is picked up by a Monitor before he can reach it. The subtitle says Earth-90. Now, we all know that the DC Multiverse has only 52 universes (or maybe 53). Why "Earth-90"? Shipp's "Flash" started in 1990. Apparently, back on Arrowverse Earth, Barry Allen and Oliver Queen switch roles. It's an "Elseworlds" story. Aren't they all, really? George

I'm working on it, but if anyone has one ready to go, go ahead. George

Journeyman was about a time traveler (I'm not sure if it was just in his own lifespan) and helped people. I liked it, so it lasted less than one season. I really don't have any idea about the others, but I'll wait to claim my turn if someone else can answer. Maybe a little more detail? George

Some guesses: A) I, Zombie B) Preacher C) Journeyman No idea about the other two. George

I've seen one episode of Game of Thrones. Which is one fewer than I've seen of Breaking Bad, and one more than I've seen of Walking Dead." George

Howard is not a major character in this movie. More of a henchman. "And this just in. Scientists discover that Canadian bacon is ordinary ham." "Shane!" "Yes, sir?" "Drinks on the house." "Yes, sir." "No, wait a second. Drinks are 50% off." "Right." "No, wait a second. Double the price of everything!" "Yes, sir." "That's not fair! They've got rocks! All we've got are these machine guns. Oh, mother of pearl, here comes another one!" "I love to lurk. It's so me." "Do you really think wearing black will make you a bad guy?" "I'm wearing black! You just have on navy blue!" [shows their sleeves to compare] "See?" "HOWARD! Why am I wearing navy blue?" "I just thought it would look better on you..." [referring to the letters 'D.D.' being shot into the wall with bullets] "Do you have any idea what this could possibly mean?" "Doris Day. Just a guess." "Dom Deluise." "Daniel Day-Lewis." "Snoop Doggy Dogg." "Daphne du Maurier." "Oh, shut up." "Doc Duvalier." "David Duchovny?" "Delores Del Rio." "Shut up, you idiots." George

Not even close. This movie was an adaptation from another genre, but not comic books. George

Inspector Gadget? George

"Breaking Bad"? George

I was surprised that you had heard of "Special Unit 2" and, for that matter, that Raf knew "The Chronicle." Both were short-lived, not on "the big four" networks, and about 15 years ago. George

You probably posted just after WW, while I was responding to him. You are correct. Here is the rundown: Two Secret Service agents (a man and a woman) hunt down supernatural artifacts, neutralize them, and bring them to a large repository. Warehouse 13 (the #1 rated SyFy show, so far) Two Chicago cops ( a man and a woman) track down "links" (folklore monsters which are links between apes and man) and eliminate them. Special Unit 2 Two cousins (a man and a woman) track down cursed antiques and retrieve them before they can cause harm. Friday the 13th Two newspaper reporters (a man and a woman) report on "true" supernatural events. They work for a tabloid, so none of their reporting is believed by the readers. The Chronicle Four people (three men and a woman -- with help from a couple of others) track down supernatural artifacts, neutralize them, and store them in a large repository. The Librarians I probably could have added a crusty old guy to each ensemble: Warehouse 13: Saul Rubinek as Artie, the Warehouse curator Special Unit 2: Richard Gant as Capt. Page Friday the 13th: Chris Wiggins as Jack Marshak The Chronicle: Jon Polito as Donald Stern, the Editor The Librarians: John Larroquette as Jenkins (who is actually Sir Galahad) Raf's up. George

I'm sure that's a Sherlock Holmes film, not because I've seen it, but because, when I was in college, my roommate read the exchange between Holmes and Watson which was the same as between you two. I don't remember which story it was, but I'll guess "The Seven Percent Solution." George

You are correct about #3. The other two shows are on the list, but not where you have them. Hint: if the remaining shows are "The Librarians" and "The Chronicle," can you match them all correctly? George

Correct. Phil Silvers created the character for the Phil Silvers Show and continued the character for years. Martin's film, however, was the first movie adaptation. George

I was pretty sure you'd know #3. #1 and #5 were both pretty recent, while #2 and #4 were closer to the turn of the century. George

Dan Aykroyd wasn't in "My Blue Heaven." This 1996 movie is based on a 1955 TV show. (Actually, the TV show began in 1948, but the main character first appeared in a 1955 episode.) The only movie, to date, featuring Steve Martin and Dan Aykroyd. The movie's closing epilogue reads: "The filmmakers gratefully acknowledge the total lack of co-operation from the United States Army". The star of the TV show was very recently used by WW in "Triple Movie Links." George

OK. Five similar shows. Get at least TWO to win the round. (I expect that WW and/or Raf will get one easily.) Two Secret Service agents (a man and a woman) hunt down supernatural artifacts, neutralize them, and bring them to a large repository. Two Chicago cops ( a man and a woman) track down "links" (folklore monsters which are links between apes and man) and eliminate them. Two cousins (a man and a woman) track down cursed antiques and retrieve them before they can cause harm. Two newspaper reporters (a man and a woman) report on "true" supernatural events. They work for a tabloid, so none of their reporting is believed by the readers. Four people (three men and a woman -- with help from a couple of others) track down supernatural artifacts, neutralize them, and store them in a large repository. George

Translation (if this helps): "Wait a moment, please." "I'm not in a hurry." "Run little rabbit, run." "With pleasure." George
