Dec. 3, 2007 J3 208 posts | no one playing any more? |
Dec. 3, 2007 Ken Men's 55 462 posts | The game has lost its pace. It’s possible that some guys can only access a computer at work, so they cannot respond on weekends. However, if you pose a question or answer you should attempt to respond at least once a day so the game keeps flowing. JMO |
Dec. 3, 2007 J3 208 posts | In a effort to see if this will start up again, who was Sam Drucker and who played him? |
Dec. 3, 2007 DoubleL10 Men's 70 907 posts | J3, Sam Drucker was in Green Acres. He ran the general store in Hooterville. |
Dec. 3, 2007 DoubleL10 Men's 70 907 posts | Whoops, forgot to mention who played Sam; it was Frank Cady. |
Dec. 3, 2007 J3 208 posts | On the nose. And Frank Cady was the only actor ever to play the same recurring character on three sitcoms simultaneously, Greenacres, Petticoat Junction and Beverly Hillbilliys. The honors are your DoubleL10 |
Dec. 3, 2007 DoubleL10 Men's 70 907 posts | In 1972, Garry Marshall came up with a concept for a sitcom about teenagers growing up in the Fifties, and shot a Happy Days pilot starring Ron Howard. Marshall tried, unsuccessfully, to sell the sitcom to all three networks. He sold the pilot to Aaron Spelling, who aired the show in February 1972, as "Love and the Happy Days." In what television series was this pilot shown? |
Dec. 3, 2007 Dbax Men's 65 2100 posts | Love: American Style |
Dec. 3, 2007 DoubleL10 Men's 70 907 posts | I thought this would be a difficult question but Dbax got it right away! You're up! |
Dec. 3, 2007 Dbax Men's 65 2100 posts | I'm a big American Graffitti fan, so I know about Happy Days. Ok, Andy Griffith Show. What is the name of the bank guard who has green stuff on his bullets? |
Dec. 4, 2007 J3 208 posts | I think it was Acesa |
Dec. 4, 2007 Dbax Men's 65 2100 posts | Correct spelling is Asa. You are right! |
Dec. 4, 2007 J3 208 posts | Same show, before Barney had his thing with Thelma Lou, Barney was chasing the skirt of what waitress? |

Dec. 4, 2007 Dbax Men's 65 2100 posts | Good guess stattad, but J3 is correct. |
Dec. 4, 2007 stattad Men's 65 235 posts | Ernest T. Bass |
Dec. 4, 2007 stattad Men's 65 235 posts | Oh yeah. Now I remember! |

Dec. 5, 2007 stattad Men's 65 235 posts | I'll guess with "The Diner". |
Dec. 5, 2007 J3 208 posts | No that was in Mayberry, this was the hot spot "up on the highway" |
Dec. 5, 2007 Dbax Men's 65 2100 posts | It was an Italian place, but I don't remember the name. |

Dec. 6, 2007 J3 208 posts | Here's a hint. College Quarterback playing this year for major college team has same last name |
Dec. 6, 2007 Dbax Men's 65 2100 posts | Great clue, but I'm still stumped. Great question by the way. |

Dec. 7, 2007 stattad Men's 65 235 posts | Morelli's? |

Dec. 7, 2007 stattad Men's 65 235 posts | I never would have gotten it without the Penn State clue (Joe Paterno). Anyway, this is a tough one (I think). One of my favorite TV shows as a kid was a precursor to The Twilight Zone which had a one-word title. It only aired for one season in 1957. |
Dec. 7, 2007 hitt2 353 posts | Was the show called The Outer limits? |
Dec. 7, 2007 stattad Men's 65 235 posts | Nope. Before that. Remember, one-word title! |

Dec. 7, 2007 stattad Men's 65 235 posts | Note to self: don't try to refresh this page! |
Dec. 10, 2007 J3 208 posts | OK thiis dead in the water. I would say either a club or the answer and a new question |
Dec. 10, 2007 dmike13 Men's 60 28 posts | WAS IT "STORM"??? |
Dec. 10, 2007 stattad Men's 65 235 posts | No, and it wasn't Thriller. 3 more hours and I'll give the answer. |
Dec. 10, 2007 J3 208 posts | I keep twisting this one around and the only thing I can come up with is Conflict. Don't really think it was much like Twilight Zone or Outer Limited but I was only 7 tor 8 if its what I think it is |
Dec. 10, 2007 docswear Men's 55 99 posts | was it Patterns? I seem to remember Rod Sterling in something called Patterns but can't remember if it was a movie or a television show. docswear |
Dec. 10, 2007 stattad Men's 65 235 posts | Okay. Too tough I guess. It was Panic! Look up some reviews on www.imdb.com People are still waiting for it to come out on video. |
Dec. 10, 2007 Dbax Men's 65 2100 posts | You are still up stattad. Let's move to TV Trivia 9. The Commish |
