That's why I didn't slam him.

I'm not sure which character this referred to, but it didn't get a match.

Re: Sheep will control the horizontal: A Sci-Fi TV Sheep Game

I think that if any of those people could have named the star of the show, they would have. A lot of these questions are too niche for casual fans, and that's why the game had trouble attracting players.

I've only seen one episode, but "John Crichton" does sound familiar now that I see it.

I'm regressing, going to end up doing worse in this game than the Game of Thrones version, which I went into blind never having played Sheep before.

At least you got some points. My answer tied with Stumpy McDoodle and did worse than "blue guy who 'scaped the farthest"

Fuck me ... Ray Bradbury. This is the problem with these games. A fuck-all wank-off answer for a show I have never seen nets me -2 while all of my uniques in reverses only get me -1.

That's because he wrote Jurassic Park.
