Re: It's Not TV: It's TV Sheep Game
I never watched The Price Is Right. Glad Trebek turned out to be a decent answer, but I would have guess Richard Dawson or even Pat Sajak before Barker.

Re: It's Not TV: It's TV Sheep Game
This one went pretty rotten, but then, that's Christmas for you.


09. R: Season's Greetings! What is the best Christmas special? (one off, holiday themed episodes from regular series do not count.)

Coal for these incorrect answers:

Spoiler:

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/D7qDEC0UbkQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Misfits
Mortalplague +10

Wishbone +10

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/BMzKTQyiM-w" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Sonny and Cher Christmas Special
Jimmy James +10

I’ve ruled all these part of a regular series, not one-offs. All the Sonny and Cher Christmas Specials were episodes of The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour or The Sonny and Cher Show.




Correct answers. 1 point all around!

I didn't figure that would be popular. And I guess I figured out how to answer a "best" Reverse!

The other option is to try to reverse-slam a popular answer. In this case, I would have done Charlie Brown, so it remains to be seen whether my other use of slams in this game will end up netting me more points than this would have (-5 instead of -1). I think it's easier to do that when there are only a few possible correct answers.... like Ringo Starr.

I guess i didn't understand the question for Christmas special. As office and misfits Christmas specials were not part of any season. They were a Christmas special ...

Isn't that what a "one off, not part of any season" episode would be? I read it as a special that isn't associated in any way with a series.

Re: It's Not TV: It's TV Sheep Game
It wasn't my answer, but Pee-wee's Christmas special should be correct. It was an hour long and aired in prime time, not a half hour on Saturday morning like the series. It was never part of the series.

Well, you could make the same arguement for The Office or It's Always Sunny... (I think).

Part of my decision has to do with when the show was produced. Originally, I marked Christmas at Pee Wee's Playhouse as correct because I mistakenly thought it was produced in 2004. Long after the series was over. When I discovered it was actually produced in 1988, during the 3rd season of Pee Wee's Playhouse, I decided it counts as part of the series.
