Okay, the Broadway one on the main board made me think to start this more common one, since I've played it a lot and I love it. Here are the rules: someone gives two TV shows or 2 movies or a show and a movie to connect. Only connections are allowed are from movie/show to actor from that, to another movie/show the same actor was in to another actor from that, etc. No other connections like marriages or producers or anything. Okay, I'll go first with one of my favorites because I was really excited when I was able to do it:
The Brady Bunch and Saved By The Bell
Maureen McCormick who played Marsha was in Dickie Roberts: Child Star
as was Alyssa Milano who was in Charmed with
Shannen Dougherty who was in Beverly Hills 90210

dustin hoffman was in the gradate, who was in sleepers with brad pitt, brad pitt was in oceans 11 with george clooney, george clooney was in batman and robin with alica silverstone.
Actually, the rules were:
"Only connections are allowed are from movie/show to actor from that, to another movie/show the same actor was in to another actor from that, etc. No other connections like marraiges or producers or anything."
It's supposed to be "Marriages" for those who misunderstood.
Melissa, I assumed that Munk's was against the rules because they were supposed to be connected by actors, so I didn't see the Tony Kushner connect fit....
I didn't know there were such "rules."
It's posted at the beginning of the thread...
Carmen Jones to Merrily We Roll Along
