  1. This one seems a bit more familiar. George
  2. There aren't a lot of shows which have been around for 20 years. SNL and the Simpsons come to mind. But one should be able to come up with more than three characters for performers in either of those shows. Without googling "Jack McFarlane" or "Grimm," I'm at a loss. George
  3. WW is up, though his posts in Movie Mash-up would almost count as a round here... George
  4. There ARE some movies I know about without actually having seen them... George
  5. Now that I think of it, I remember almost all of the words to "On Broadway," and that's not what WW posted. Maybe someone snuck those words in as an homage? George
  6. Denzel Washington Training Day Scott Glenn George
  7. Now that the chorus has appeared, I know it's George Benson's "On Broadway." I remember about 50 years ago, it was used on a commercial for Radio Free Europe. George
  8. As long as that artist's version contains the lyrics given. Different versions often have slight changes in the lyrics. Back to the game. And I have no idea about WW's song. George
  9. Eddie Murphy 48 Hours Nick Nolte George
  10. Tommy Lee Jones Men in Black Linda Fiorentino George
  11. Technically, only if the name of the song is in the first line. I'd be willing to give it to you, but it's really up to Human, since he's the clue-giver. BTW, welcome to "the game room." Feel free to join in any open thread. I've posted a pinned thread on how to play the games. The basic rules are 1.) winner gives the clues for the next round and 2.) no googling for the answer. (It's OK to google to give accurate clues.) George
  12. Unlike WW, I have NO idea. George
  13. In a similar-but-not-identical vein, TWI leaders saw the word rereward in the OT and read it as "re-reward," as if God were going to give you another reward. It was an old spelling of rearward, goofballs! George
  14. DeNiro Meet the Fokkers Barbara Streisand George
  15. Al Pacino Scarface Mary Ellen Mastrantonio George
  16. Yes. And NCIS LA and NCIS NO spun off from it. "AJ Chegwidden" has appeared on NCIS and NCIS LA a few times. I know that "Bud Roberts" has appeared once or twice, and "Harm Rabb" and (sigh) "Sarah MacKenzie" are reunited (sort of) in this season's finale (with cliffhanger) of NCIS LA. George
  17. Okay. Well, here's what I THIUGHT I posted a couple of weeks ago: This popular show had one spinoff, which has had two spinoffs of its own. All three spinoffs are currently running, and characters from the original show occasionally appear (including as late as the current season). Unused footage from movies like Top Gun, Flight of the Intruder, Clear and Present Danger, and The Hunt for Red October (all movies from Paramount Pictures) was used in this television series (a Paramount Network Television production). One episode was shot on the set of Crimson Tide. Despite being on the air for ten seasons, and two hundred twenty-seven episodes, the show never had a female director. George
  18. The Time Tunnel. One of my favorites. Sad it had such a short run. George
  19. Carrie Fisher Amazon Women on the Moon Rosanna Arquette George
  20. Christopher Lee Hannie Caulder Raquel Welch George
  21. David Tomlinson Mary Poppins Dick van Dyke George
  22. She didn't actually talk backwards (a la Zatanna); but she spoke in spoonerisms. Her dad, the king, could never understand her, but Kermit could figure most of them out. The one he couldn't get, until the end, was to break the witch's spell, one had to "bake the hall in the candle of her brain." (Break the ball in the handle of her (the witch's) cane.) My favorite part was Kermit singing "Sweetum" to sleep, before Sweetums would eat him: "Sweetums, lay your ugly head, Down upon your wretched bed. Close your eyes and go to sleep, Rest, you hulking heap. Sweetums is so sweet and cute, Go to sleep, you stupid brute." At which point Sweetums would say "Nighty-night!" and pass out. This happened a few times, before Sweetums caught on: "Sweetums eat froggie, NOW!!!!" I remember seeing this show while visiting my grandmother, who died in 1976. I haven't seen it since. I like the Muppets, fine; I just never watched them. George
