Did you “borrow” another country’s high-tech wonder without asking?
No idea who this is- ask a DQ
Mitchell Gant, the USAF pilot played by Clint Eastwood in Firefox (based on the book of the same name). He stole a high-tech Soviet fighter plane.
I have to admit, I’m stumped. Every DQ that I might ask has already been asked, and I’m no closer to a solution. If you’ll permit it, then, I’ll let someone ask my DQ.
I’m baffled. I’m just going to throw a bunch of IQs out there…if I get any DQs anyone who stops by is free to use them since I likely won’t be on the board until Friday.
IQ1: Are you a welterweight MMA fighter who has fought in the UFC?
IQ2: Are you about to appear in film as a retired vigilante superhero?
IQ3: Are you well-known (among other things) for your Naevus flammeus?
IQ4: Are you a billionaire sports owner?
IQ5: Are you a Canadian non-fiction author?
IQ4: Not Malcolm Glazer…
Otherwise, ask 4 DQ.s
I apologize if this one is too hard. It SHOULDN’T be. At least, I thought this was a relatively light-hearted accessible one.
Hints:
-
You’ll notice there’s only one major American TV network left that nobody’s asked about.
-
The character is definitely best known as a TV character, but has appeared in at least 2 media besides television. What are the two most obvious media a character might appear in before making it to television?
Did you find fame alongside your brothers Robin and Barry?
Not the late Maurice Gibb of the Bee Gees
Do you play poker with Oscar and Felix?
WOOHOO! YES! I AM MURRAY GRESCHLER, BETTER KNOWN AS “MURRAY THE COP”.
Some of the questions asked earlier were phrased so specifically that the answers, though accurate, may sometimes have been misleading.
I originally appeared in Neil Simon’s Broadway play “The Odd Couple.” I was also a character in the movie version of “The Odd Couple,” where I was played as a gruff wisecracker by Herb Edelman. Then, most famously, I was the big-nosed buffoon in the TV version of “The Odd Couple,” played by Al Molinaro.
Bravo Biffy! I was starting to feel really obscure.
Way to go, Biffy! I wouldn’t have guessed that in a million years.
Thanks for the game, astorian! I’ll start up a new round soonish.
Great job, Biffy. If it’s a fictional character, I’d never get without another 100 DQs.
My unanswered IQs were:
Melvin Guillard
Matthew Goode
Mikhail Gorbachev
Malcolm Gladwell
