Name the Episode Game - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Welcome to the Name the Episode Game.
Same basic rules apply for gameflow (see below).

This is similar to basic trivia, but the goal is to name the episode, every answer answer will be the epi title.
The clue giver will leave a word or words, if the answer is not gotten, the clue giver can add more word(s) to the clue until some one gets it.
Keep your words/clue like a list.
It's kind of like doing trivia drills, do what you can by memory.

SAMPLE:
POST 1/PLAYER 1:
Mr. Lippman
TV Guide
gyros from Queensboro Plaza subway stop

POST 2/PLAYER 2:
The Cigar Store Indian #74

POST 3/PLAYER 1: Correct PLAYER 2, it's your turn.
===

Rules of Engagement:
This will be the standard format; someone leaves a clue, you answer correctly, the person asking confirms your correct answer, then you assume control & leave new clue, & it starts all over.
Use basic courtesy, don't ask until your correct answer is confirmed by who has control.

the 24 hour rule:
if 24 hours passes without a post, ANYONE may take control of the game by asking a Q. If you ask a Q, watch for & confirm correct answers so you pass control of the game, keep it moving (you can also let them know when they are wrong).
If 24 hours passes, posts have been made but a correct answer has not been posted, the player in control either gives more clue/restates his Q, or can answer his own Q, submit a new Q & the games roles on.
If 24 passes after a correct answer has been posted, yet it has not received confirmation by player in control, other players can confirm it...(and/or) I will monitor the game close enough to avoid this, I can confirm most answers.
Sometimes 24 hours seems like an enternity for those who hang online (at work or whatever), but it's a decent timeframe to allow even gameplay. If a bunch of you are online you can burn through pages asking & confirming if your so inclined.

Try not to repeat questions. Gets tough to track later when the thread grows (or if you play other SeinTriv games), but try.
