SMILE

Is the first thing this answer reminds me of the horror movie Smile, which I watched as soon as it was available? Nope, the first thing I thought of was “You’re a puppet!”

With how much I loved the show, you’d think I’d occasionally rewatch Angel, but it’s just too much. Can’t watch Angel without also watching Buffy, and of course both shows would have to be watched in chronological order. Figuring that out would almost be like work. But the real deal-breaker is that it would be a combined 256 episodes. That’s just too much.

So close to a two! SMILE was my first thought, but then I decided it would be a good idea to get the T in play. Ah well; given that there are somewhere in the neighborhood of 60 legit __I_E words, I’m happy with the three.

LOYAL → One and only one L, not at start or end. That should narrow things down a bit. Try I & E and two comcons
RILES → Well. Try that E at the end, S at start followed by L, I in middle - what’s fourth?
SLIME → Ahh, so close. It’s another SLATE/STALE situation, I think I got that one wrong too
SMILE

So I’m wondering: will STILE/SMILE have more solvers than SLIME/SMILE? As I write this, I just pushed the latter into the lead 3-2.

I was really glad to get out of this one in 4 guesses, though it was quite the slog in getting there with how many choices there were.
