THE "MARY TYLER MOORE" PASSWORD GAME

HOW TO PLAY:
First, Look at the example below. At one at a time, clues will be given out. There will be at least four clues and no more than seven. Players are allowed only to take one guess at each clue
[within the amount of time the clue has]. If a player guesses more than once the first guess will count, while the others won't.
The player who guesses the correct "Password" first automatically wins a point as well as the opportunity to give out clues for the next "Password" round. By the way, the category for this "Password" game will always be "Mary Tyler Moore" the tv series.

The Example
Five-Clue Password
Category: Television

First clue: Sitcom

--> player's guesses

Second clue: Sitcom, 50's

--> player's guesses

Third clue: Sitcom, 50's, Lucy

--> player's guesses

Fourth clue: Sitcom, 50's, Lucy, Couple

--> player's guesses

Fifth clue: Sitcom, 50's, Lucy, Couple, Older

--> Player's guesses

The answer: Mertzes (The Mertzes)

How does this answer fit in with the five clues?
OK, here's the answer to the question: A sitcom from the 1950's called I Love Lucy featured an older couple named the Mertzes.


Get It?


Someone please start us off.

Here's the third clue. The ONE in BOLD

Clues> Character, Fiance, Blonde

I don't remember the episode name or the woman's name, but that woman Lou was going to marry, but she dumped him during the war and came back years later to ask him for money. (Think ice cream dessert on head ;))

CONGRATULATIONS Kristen! Georgette is the correct password! You win three points (not including the one extra point). You now have the title of being the very first person ever to win a "Mary Tyler Moore" password round. Way to go! Since you have won this round, it is your turn to give out the clues for the next password round!
