OK, we seemingly know that the anagrams need to come from:

Stroessner
Ferdinand Magellan
Lady (Augusta) Gregory
Martin Nan Buren
Paolo Veronese
Tobias Smollett (MOSTEL) or Olcott (COLT) (depending on where Samuel is paired)

Matching names are:

Charles Schultz
Don Martin
Edward Bernays
James Forten
Josh Gibson
Michael Milken

Left with:

TIMES
BEVERLY HILLS
REGIS PHILBIN
MACABRE
MAKEUP
ZER0 / 45

Got one: JAMES (Forten) RESTON (Stoessner) held various positions at the New York TIMES.

Couple of thoughts.

First, broke down and looked up Mostel. His son is named Josh and is an actor also.

Also, isn't Gelman the producer dweeb on Regis Philbin? He would work from Magellan. Anyone know his first name?

OK. The Samuel + Colt = 45 is right.

Josh Mostel is Zero's kid, and also is an actor.

So, we have JOSH Gibson and Tobias Smollett (MOSTEL) = ZERO

Great minds think alike. :)

(I got so caught up with the other posts about ZERO Mostel that I forgot that I knew that his son was Josh Mostel. :oops: )

In fact, this was one of my questions when I was on Jeopardy.

There is still one wrong answer remaining, and since there are so few unmatched answers, it should be easy to go back to the question and see why the answer is 'right church, wrong pew.'

Got it. You were looking for Fester Bestertester, the character.

Bestertester becomes Brest.

Beverly Hills is director Martin Brest.

Excellent work, everybody! And I'm glad this one didn't stretch out for a longer period of time, especially since I'll be out of town for a few days. I'm heading up to the Boston Area Scrabble Tournament this weekend, where I'll be rooming with an old friend of many of the people here, Mr. Jason Idalski.
