There are varying levels of knowledge among those who enjoy playing "Guess the Episode" and "LOCI Trivia". Experienced players tend to ask more difficult questions which can frustrate new or less knowledgeable players. On the other hand, if the questions are too easy, there is no challenge and no fun for the experienced players. This combined thread is intended to solve the problem.

Players can ask either trivia or "guess the episode" type questions. Clues should be issued sparingly. Research is acceptable because it will help players to advance and compete at this level. Obviously, players can still participate in the other trivia threads but the more difficult or obscure questions should be reserved for this thread.

Your feedback is welcome. Enjoy the thread!

Here is one to get us started. It may not be all that difficult for some, considering they are already at the "genius" level. Me, I'm workin' on it!

Guess the episode:

Eames: Public service runs in the family.

Great idea NLfann!!

Shoot... I can hear Eames saying that one... I'm gonna have to think about this one!

Wid guess here, Badge?

I've got a few possibilities... but I'm gonna start out guessing Ex Stasis

I dunno why

No, sorry.



Not Ex-Stasis either.

Cold Comfort?

Not that one either.

If nobody gets it tonight, I'll give a clue tomorrow morning.

Here is a clue. Eames was referring to two brothers.

Hmmm.... Eosphoros? Maybe?

Nope.

Crap.... back to the drawing board... LOL

Cruise to Nowhere?

Graansha?

No.

Welcome to the thread. I know you have a "thing" about new threads but I thought we needed one like this. Obviously you were one of the people I had in mind when I created it.



Sorry, no.

P.S. If nobody gets it, I will give another clue later this evening.

Gemini?

Sorry. No.

Happy Family?

Zoonotic? I can't spell, sorry!

No.


And no again. (Zoonotic is spelled correctly.)

I think we're stumped, girlie. Toldya I was bad at Guess the Episode... LOL

I guess I'll break down and give another clue.

Both brothers were selfish, self-destructive and treacherous.

Grow?

Rats... I think that's it.

Right you are. One brother was a Health Inspector, the other a Medical Examiner. She said it while she and Goren were searching Larry Chapel's apartment.

More knowledgeable players? Who's to say someone is more knowledgeable then the other? I don't know about his...

Anybody can play on this thread but players need to understand up front that the questions will be more difficult or obscure and there will be fewer or less frequent clues.

Edited to add:

I could change the description to say "More difficult questions, less clues" but I don't know how to do it.

That would be good...I think if you go to your original post you can edit? I'm not sure though...

You just have to the the "Full Edit" instead of the "Quick Edit".

Thanks cluck and pfchristine for the feedback and the advice. You will note that I have changed the description. Many heads are certainly better than one.

Krod, you were correct so it's your turn. There has been so much extra discussion since that you may have missed my response to your post.

I'm sort of agreeing with cluck here, maybe this should be easier for us? Let me think about my question for a few, I do ask a question, right? This is easy, what main guest star male, had his own hit TV show at one time?

Stephen Colbert, who guest starred in The Saint, has his own hit TV show right now: The Colbert Report

There was also Neil Patrick Harris from Doogie Houser MD who guest starred in Want

I should say He's older than VDO, in real life. Does that help?

Ya... I think I'll just let someone else answer. I'm not fond of these "There are a dozen correct answers but guess which one I'm thinking of" questions.

Yeah, here we go again,

Micheal Gros-Family Ties
Micheal Emerson- Lost
Linda Lavin-Alice
Hal Linden- Barney Miller
Judd Hirsch-Taxi
Jude Ciccolella- 24
Rebecca Schull-Wings
Terry O'Quinn- Lost-Millennium-
Brent Spiner- Star Trek Next generation
Margaret Colin-The Edge of Night
Mark Linn Baker- Perfect Strangers
Bronson Pinchot-Perfect Strangers
Fred Weller- IN plain site, I know he is younger, but found out he is from New orleans, cool!
Kevin Tighe- my child hood crush, Emergency!
Georffrey Lewis -Flo
Austin Pendleton-Homicide Life on the streets
John Shea-Mutant X,Lois and Clark
Arye Gross-Ellen


Ok on first glance this is season 1-4 didn't double check ages. I got to go prepare for the hurricane.

As you see above, how many people that is just in season 1-4, and If I really had the time I could find more, You need to narrow it down more, at least the season.

I love how you want easy questions, but then you come up with these questions that have a million answers.

Another clue, the episode this man was in, his ex owned a hotel, and 1 child in this epi. The guest star's famous show was also a cop show, but funny instead of drama. Now, that is giving everything but the answer. You can also go to unscramble topic, and there ya go! Actually, I'm gonna give the answer, I have too much to do before leaving, so anybody can pick it up, it's Hal Linden, starred in Barney Miller, episode, Suite Sorrow. Take it away anyone!

Man, I KNEW this!!!!!

Hal Linden was on the laundry list jryan posted, so I think you're up!

I can't think of anything, and I have a hurricane coming, so I don't want to leave yall hanging. Ok name two guest stars, that VDO, has had implied sex with in other movies.But is that a fair question?

Seems fair to me... hmm... well definitely NOT Lou Taylor Pucci.... lol

Unless there was a missing scene I didn't see!

Wait... I've got this one.

Theresa Russell in Hotel Paradise
Olivia D'Abo in The Velocity of Gary (NHRN)

um....ew......LOL

yep! what is NHRN?

NHRN = not his real name

awwwww!

What year was Francis Goren born?
