@ josh

Barry is on the list above, and it makes the puzzle work. Being a HUGE game show fan, his name was in my thoughts, but it just didn’t meet the clues.

I had Lon Chaney played 3/4.

I even had Night Surfing for the Stephen King puzzle with the guy in front of the computer–I didn’t think insomnia fit since it looked like he was sleeping.

As far as losing from wrong answers, I think everyone was entered into random drawings for this one, even without all correct answers.

I had Jack Berry, as in the host of “Twenty One”, the show famous for the ‘Quiz Show’ scandal with Charles Van Doren…

Is Barry really the right answer??

Oh, and I had Dracula, Frankenstein, and the Wolfman all shared ONE movie with Abbott & Costello… they met Jekyll/Hyde in a different movie. Hope that wasn’t why I lost… :-/

Wayne, that one confused me too. A quick google search on Jack BERRY identifies a Florida citrus baron. I kept trying to get that to work. When it didn’t I just tried Barry and it worked. Still confused me…

huh, weird. apparently “Broadway Melody of 1974″ contains the same verses (about celebrities, including HH) as the end of “Fly on a Windshield,” off the same album!
