About that.

82

Oh, oh… shit.

I can’t remember her name.

She was on Star Trek the Next Generation.
Does it count if I can’t remember her name? I can remember Dr. Pulaski, and I can go a bit farther with that information…

shit.

83

For full credit you’ll have to come up with it later. Carry on. But you owe me one. :smiley:

84
  1. Who was “the bitch” on that show? How did she leave that show?

Dr. Pulaski. Don’t remember how she left the show either though. Someone else can clue me in :wink:

  1. What show was she on where she got fired after one season?

Star Trek The Next Generation

  1. Who was the kid on that show?

Wil Wheaton

  1. In what film did he grow up to be Richard Dreyfuss?

Stand By Me

  1. What other kid from that movie grew up to be a cop?

Jerry O’Connell

  1. On what show, starring whom?

Crossing Jordan

  1. What other show was she on?

Uh…

(I said I could get a little bit farther :wink:

– What the hell is that woman’s name? This is going to drive me nuts. My brain just keeps popping up Gates McFadden. Probably because I tend to mentally block out the second season for exactly the reason that I hated Pulaski.

85

Diana Muldaur’s character on L.A. Law fell down an elevator shaft, if I remember correctly.

Crossing Jordan stars Jill Hennesy.

  1. What other show was she on?

Law & Order

  1. Who was her partner?

Sam Waterston?

After that, I got nothing.

86

Oll Korrect so far.

87

Sam Waterston was in the horrible movie Capricorn one, but I cannot for the life of me remember who headed the mission. I remember OJ Simpson, and James Brolin, but can’t remember who was in charge of what. It was such a bad movie.

And I can’t remember either of them ever having played a father in a tv show…

88

Gonna work the back end of the chain, cause I’m completely stuck
20) That episode was made into a movie. What child featured in the movie?

Jeremy something. The kid who played one of the brothers that I could never tell apart.

  1. What TV show was he on?

Hogan Family

  1. So was another boy. What’s he in now?

Arrested Development.

  1. And what other show was he in as a child?

Silver Spoons

  1. Who starred in it?

Ricky Schroder

  1. And as an adult, was on…
    NYPD Blue
89

So far, so good. You are allowed to use IMDB, you know.

90

Do we need some hints?

91

…

You’re kidding me.

Give me 10 minutes then :wink:

92
  1. Who was the Big Boss on that show?

John Larch or Bill Mumy is all I can come up with. Without this I can’t work the other way any further up…

  1. He was in an episode of The Twilight Zone. Which one? (Yes, there were two.)

It’s A Good Life

93

Wow, way off the tracks here.

Yes, Jeremy Licht was in the movie The Twilight Zone, but what I’m looking for is what actor (question 18) was in an original TZ (question 19), which was later made into one of the TZ movie segments. It was not It’s a Good Life, although that’s the segment I was thinking of in question 20.

In other words, actor 18 was on the original TZ. When it was remade, a different actor played the same part. I’m not looking for the second actor. The two are otherwise completely unrelated. Hint: Yes they are. See question 18.

Confused yet?

94

Close?
16) Who was his downstairs neighbor?

Joseph Gorden Levitt

  1. The actor who played the neighbor was on what other sitcom?

3rd Rock From the Sun

  1. Who was the Big Boss on that show?

William Shatner

  1. He was in an episode of The Twilight Zone. Which one? (Yes, there were two.)

Nightmare at 2000 feet

95

Who’s Joseph Gorden Levitt? That’s incorrect.

And it’s 20,000 feet. It’s unwise to fly a large jet at 2,000 feet. You run into stuff that way.

Otherwise correct.

96

Okay, I think I’ve got it, but didn’t Elliot Gould play a reporter in Capricorn One and not the mission commander?

  1. Elliot Gould
  2. Friends
  3. Courtney Cox
  4. Jerry Seinfeld to get a discount on dry cleaning
  5. Wayne Knight
  6. Third Rock from the Sun

and so on.

97

Solved!

I could swear that Gould was the third astronaut. I’d have to see the movie again to get it straight, but the movie is such a piece of shite that there’s no way I’m sitting through it again.

98

Gah, you know, I thought of Elliot Gould but I threw him right out because he was a journalist :stuck_out_tongue: Would have solved it a lot sooner, I think :wink:
