Well, it was another great game, and I did a tad above average. Ouch! I think that I do have the 1944 film ‘Gaslight’ so I’ll be sure to watch it. Anyways, I went with ‘One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest’ for FJ, but I knew that would never leave the dock.
Preempted again, so it’s solely the recap pour moi. All 3 DDs very gettable. FJ stumped me, never saw the movie but now I wish I had. Riddle from middle school days long ago: Boy A and Boy B are standing side by side. What is Boy A’s name? Charles. Charles Boyer.
No one knew “Catcher in the Rye” author? Guessed the shire lad. Gless/Daly, Foxx/Wilson were from shows I watched often.
Appears to have been a very competitive game.
Of the movie and the TV shows in today’s game, I’d recommend the Foxx/Wilson sitcom to the players. That is the funniest classic sitcom ever, imo!
No one knew the Holden Caulfield question, or Sharon Gless and Tyne Daly show? Sheesh.
Mehal actually got the last daily right, but then Adam stormed back to take the lead by the end of the DJ! round.
Several years before this movie, Frenchman Charles Boyer played Pepe Le Moko in the movie “Algiers”. That character was the inspiration for the Looney Tunes skunk, Pepe Le Pew.
