"THE DICK VAN DYKE SHOW" 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 of this "Password" game will always be "The Dick Van Dyke Show".

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.

Plot

~Pickles

The burial plots from "The Plots Thicken" That's just a guess so we can actually get this game moving, LOL. I have no idea if that's right or not!

SawgrassSteve · 11-19-2002, 07:43 PM

Kristen,
You guessed my guess!
Is That it? Episode #87, "The Plots Thicken"?
Steve

PicklesSorrell · 11-19-2002, 09:23 PM

Thats not it, but great guess, since that what my first thought was of!

But I wrote out all my clue and I hope I'm not confusing anyone...just like the real Pickles Sorrell, I can be scatter-brained LOL

Well, here's the second clue:

Buddy

(Now the clues are Plot, Buddy).

Note: I meant "Plot" as in show idea

LOL

~Pickles

PicklesSorrell · 11-21-2002, 06:54 AM

Its been 24 hours and no fresh guesses, so I'll give ya clue three:

Clue 1: Plot
Clue 2: Buddy
Clue 3: Personal

I must not being doing this right...I hope I'm not getting anyone confused by my lack of ability to follow directions LOL

OK my guess now is "Buddy Sorrell, Man and Boy" (Don't know ep #'s, but that's the one where he makes his bar mitzvah).

Kristen

Roz1013 · 11-21-2002, 02:08 PM

Dang! You stole my guess again Kristen! lol Ok, well just to be different then, the episode where Buddy and Pickles get in a fight (the name of the ep escapes me at the moment).
