Great idea! Why don't you run one?Originally Posted by brainee
For another sheep game ... what about a horror-themed game? It seems natural for this time of year (and hasn't been done before).

yay, not last
. I am planning on running a combat sports/pro wrestling sheep in sports talk, it will be bare bones though lol

I could have won this thing if I had only thought of Lassie. oh well...Congrats to Brainee, thanks to TracerBullet for running the game quickly (and for a great list of questions!)
and now FWIW, I think Heroes does have a naturalistic setting, ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox and Dumont are/were Networks and not channels. and oddly enough NFL Network is a channel.
It's also worth noting that this thread provided the best Heroes discussion all season!

I can't believe I matched on "Have Gun Will Travel."
I got here to late, but I also think Heroes is wrong.

I think everyone should bow down to me for figuring out a way to introduce bickering into Sheep questions.

I see that my first western answer, The Rifleman, was not selected.

If you make the penalty for a wrong answer greater, then people would be less likely to risk trying to out-think the question, especially on reverse questions. Originally Posted by Tracer Bullet

This didn't matter so much here because with all the points you could rack up with sweeps multipliers, the point difference between a unique reverse answer and a wrong answer was negligible.
Just my $.02
I give you

for running an entertaining game!!

Thanks, Tracer. That was fun.
I do think The Red Zone does not show NFL games, but I think you got Heroes just right.
As to Evening Shade, I have now satisfied myself that there was indeed a newspaper setting on the show. I'm impressed with myself for remembering that about a show I never actually watched. I would have to acknowledge that it sounds like it was not a primary setting for the show, though. I just couldn't bring myself to go with Newsradio because I knew it would be popular.
