Al, Seth, Dan - no guess 7. Ralph, Alice, Trixie - The Honeymooners 8. Jim, Judy, Plato - no guess 9. Bick, Jett, Leslie - no guess 10. Ben, Clara, Jody - no guess Bonus 2-character ones a) Rhett, Scarlett - **Gone With The Wind** b) Thelma, Louise - (you’re kidding, right?) c) Wyatt, Billy - any incarnation of the OK Corral story ( **Tombstone, Wyatt Urp, Gunfight at the.** …, etc) d) Jules, Jim - (see comment on B above) e) Han, Luke - why did you make these so easy? ---

[/QUOTE] The “Bonus” ones were purely for fun, I thought. Wyatt and Billy must have too many iterations to be as much fun as I had hoped.
