Re: Game #213: Tonight on HBO
Repeatedly removing parts and using the Preview button (rather than Submit) to isolate the issue is the only way to figure out where the offending part is. And then figuring out how to alter that part to get it past the weird ISE error...
One of the longer games I posted literally had FOUR places in the game triggering the error... and I spent over an hour finding and fixing every one of them. It's a pain in the ass, and something that's only reared its head here about three or four years ago....

Yeah, it took me an inordinate amount of time to post the game in the first place. One suggestion I'd make is to copy and paste the original post - since that was cleaned up - and use that as the base for the consolidation.littlebeast13 wrote: ↑Thu Aug 10, 2023 10:29 amRepeatedly removing parts and using the Preview button (rather than Submit) to isolate the issue is the only way to figure out where the offending part is.

A-77. This comedian has given voice to a white rabbit in an animated feature and to Kanye West in a music video.

The song of the birds. The way the desert looks at night, with the moon embracing it. Oh, my boy, that's ... that's circus enough for anyone. Every time you watch a rainbow and feel wonder in your heart. Every time you pick up a handful of dust, and see not the dust, but a mystery, a marvel, there in your hand. Every time you stop and think, ‘I'm alive, and being alive is fantastic!’”

Question A-40 is not included in the consolidation because something in that question caused the error.
After copying and pasting that question from the original post, the question is now included.

Re: Game #213: Tonight on HBO
Looking at the Tangredi, two movies stand out: Dondi and Bless the Beasts and the Children.
There are only two notable things about Bless the Beasts. It was directed by Stanley Kramer and it stars Billy Mumy in his only significant movie role. I don't think the movie link has anything to do with the director, because Dondi was directed by Alfred Zugsmith, whose filmography doesn't lend itself to much linking. And if the movie link has anything to do with the title of the film, that would leave Dondi out as well.
But Billy Mumy is best known for Lost in Space, and Dondi stars David Janssen, best known for The Fugitive. Looking at other films on the list, we get:
Up - Ed Asner (MTM, Lou Grant)
Toy Story - Tim Allen (Home Improvement)
Them - James Arness (Gunsmoke)
Gaslight - Angela Lansbury (Murder She Wrote)
Rear Window - Raymond Burr (Perry Mason; Ironside)
Back to the Future - Michael J. Fox (Family Ties); Christopher Lloyd (Taxi) (This could be one of the films that's used twice.)
Towering Inferno - Robert Vaughn (Man from UNCLE); Robert Wagner (Hart to Hart) (same here)
Major League - Charlie Sheen (2 1/2 Men); Corbin Bernsen (LA Law) (same here)
12 Angry Men - Jack Klugman (The Odd Couple); E.G. Marshall (The Defenders) (same here)
Swiss Family Robinson - James MacArthur (Hawaii Five-O)
Bruce Almighty - Steve Carell (The Office)
Come Back Little Sheba - Shirley Booth (Hazel)
Braveheart - Patrick McGoohan (The Prisoner, Secret Agent)
The Apartment - Fred MacMurray (My Three Sons)
Earthquake - Lorne Greene (Bonanza)
Showgirls - Elizabeth Berkeley (Saved by the Bell)
Oceans 11 - George Clooney (ER)
The Birds - Suzanne Pleshette (Bob Newhart)
Lost Horizon - Sam Jaffe (Ben Casey)
Willy Wonka - Jack Albertson (Chico and the Mann)
Brothers Karamazov - William Shatner (Star Trek) (Further verification: the clue said Rameses played the brother of Ishamel, when Frank could have mentioned Captain Kirk in the clue)
These actors all had major roles in popular TV series, and for many of them, the TV series is the signature role of their career.
Looking at the actors, I don't see a lot of clear links. Angela Cartwright was in Lost in Space and Tony Randall in The Odd Couple, but I'm pretty sure that Stan Laurel and Tim McCoy didn't do much TV work. Perry King and Hazel Court's names might match up with the name of the TV series too. But hopefully, this will get people started.
