I'm completely caught up on all of the shows. (I usually am, within a week of their airing.) Maybe it's part of the charm of SHIELD, but I'm getting a little tired of "who's the traitor, this week?" No major complaints about the show, though; but I'd put it at the bottom of my super-hero TV list. Since you asked :lol: here's my ranking. YMMD. Legends of Tomorrow Supergirl Flash Gotham Arrow SHIELD George

Don't know. They're probably from another immensely popular film which I haven't seen... George

It WAS hard to suppress a strong feeling of deja vu, while watching. I was just waiting for the line, "Behold, a FULLY-FUNCTIONAL death planet!" George

Ian McKellen The DaVinci Code Tom Hanks George

Martin Short? George

I suppose one could find similar oddities for each of the others. Let me try to narrow it down. It has to do with their careers. They all have one thing in common, but the "odd man" is slightly different. George PS I realize that the "Jimmy Duggan" character in "A League of Their Own" was based on Foxx.

I don't know if anyone will see this. (It's the first post on the thread in five years!) But I heard a brain teaser on the radio program "Says You" which baseball aficionados should enjoy. Which of the following Hall-of-Famers is different from the others, and how is he different? Be specific. Babe Ruth Hank Aaron Lou Gehrig Willie Mays Jimmie Foxx (Note: it's not about statistics. You could say that Aaron is the only one who hit over 750 HR; but you could just as easily say that Gehrig was the only one to hit fewer than 500.) George

I can't speak for WW, but I know I chuckled. It's fun when the "whole" title actually makes some sense. New one soon. George

Batman: The Brave and the Bold and the Beautiful (?) George

Julia Sweeney? George

I stand corrected. I saw posters with all the Jaws movies together and conflated Jaws 2 with Jaws the Revenge. An easy one: A group of young super-heroes stop an ancient Egyptian god from conquering Vietnam. George

I've seen posters for the movie with and without the II New one soon. George

The Ahab I know is Gregory Peck George

Assuming NO ONE WOULD GET IT FOR A WHILE, I was going to mention that this actor has his own category on jumptheshark.com*. I didn't pick PARTICULARLY obscure roles, but I didn't think anyone would get it without Jefferson D'Arcy. Oh, well. Raf's up. George *If any of you watched the cartoon series "Batman: The Brave and the Bold," the last episode made fun of jumptheshark.com, basically by going through every way, mentioned on the site, that a show "jumps the shark." ("Special" episode, child born, etc.) McGinley voiced Aquaman through the second half, pulling a "jump" double: new actor -- same character; and, of course, Ted McGinley. (Henry Winkler appears as Ambush Bug.) At the end, while they're "closing down the set," McGinley/Aquaman points out that he's been on SEVERAL successful shows, thank you very much! I don't know how Netflix or Hulu (etc.) works, but watch that episode, if you can.

Name the actor Roger Phillips Ashley Covington Evans Clay Fallmont George

"Jaws II: The Revenge of the Nerds" George

I'm guessing that "Hey, you guys!" is also a clue, but I don't recognize it, any more than the other stuff. So, I'll just toss out Latina actresses until I inadvertently stumble upon the right one, or Raf gets bored and puts an end to this. Rita Moreno? George

Yep. George

I don't know if Julie Andrews ever won a Grammy. I know she's won an Oscar and an Emmy, and probably a Tony. But none of those roles were played by her, as far as I know. A large fraction of the names are Hispanic, so it might be a Latina actress, but I don't think I'll get it without googling (unless there are giveaway roles which you haven't posted yet). George

Sorry. ACE award and Raf's little poem notwithstanding,I'm not getting it. George

I expect that there will be a at the end of this, but none of those roles ring a bell, except Carmen Sandiego, and I don't know who played her... George

"Kill anybody today, Curly?" "Day ain't over, yet." George

"Scent of a Woman"? George

These two short-lived TV shows featured movie stars in perhaps their only starring TV (series) roles. Both involved intrigues in Washington, DC. Name either one. George C. Scott stars as President Samuel Tresch, whose wife mysteriously leaves him. From the late 1980's. Sharon Stone as Vice President Natalie Maccabee, guardian of a special copy of the Constitution. Ran last year. George

Correct. :) George
