First one.
Get from Mandy Patinkin to Mandy Moore.
You can use theatre or films.

Which Tyrone Power do you mean? I'm going to guess you mean the middle one - the one who was in Witness For The Prosecution and Mark of Zorro...
So, here we go: Tyrone Power was in The Sun Also Rises with Ava Gardner, who was on Knot's Landing with Alec Baldwin, who was in The Departed with Jack Nicholson, who was in As Good As It Gets with Skeet Ulrich!
TA-DAAAA!

Here is another route to Tyrone Power:
Skeet Ulrich was in "Into the West" with Gary Busey
Gary Busey was in two episodes of the TV show "Baretta" with Robert Blake
Robert Blake was in "Pork Chop Hill" with Gregory Peck
Gregory Peck in "On The Beach" with Ava Gardner
Ava Gardner was in "The Sun Also Rises" with Tyrone Power

Oh, um, I guess I'm supposed to think of a new one.
OK, Errol Flynn and Mark Wahlberg

Oh! I always thought it had to be six, due to the title of the game, perhaps.
Well, I guess I CAN play then.

Thanks, Taz!
Rath: Yes, it's a maximum of 6 degrees. 
So, who's gonna do the Errol Flynn/Mark Wahlberg one? I know it's possible.
#15re: Six Degrees of Separation
Posted: 5/1/07 at 6:52pmAnother question - are we allowed to look these up, or are we supposed to figure them out on our own?

Posted: 5/1/07 at 6:55pmwell, I think you should try to think them up on your own. But I'm sure everyone cheats a little.

Hay, STP, even though you were "too late," your path was very close to the one I was thinking of.
And Rath, I'm not cheating. I'm figuring them out on my own.
But I'm gonna go take a nap, now...
