Because I am an obsessive-compulsive karma whore (and because I needed some fun after balancing my checkbook and paying my bills : , I sat down this afternoon and went through all 81 pages of the ABC game to make a list of what we've done so far -- no doubt inspired by the conversation in the chat room the other night. I was curious as to what topics had been done and what topics were, hopefully, waiting in the wings. I say we finish up Dressing the Eighth (II) in the old thread, and then roll over to this new one for more new amusements. I have a brand new topic all ready to go but I’m saving it for the official inauguration of this thread . . . and then why not do the eps in order again? After all, if we can have five rounds of dialogue, no reason why we can’t have another rhyming crack at The Pilot! (Jeez, Maggie, again with you and The Pilot. ;D) Here’s the list so far: 1. Blind Justice (the basics) 2. Seoul Man 3. Marlon’s Brando 4. Up on the Roof 5. Under the Gun 6. Doggone It! 7. Four Feet Under 8. The Pilot 9. Leap of Faith 10. Past Imperfect 11. In Your Face 12. Fancy Footwork 13. Dance with Me 14. Marty Russo 15. Christie Dunbar 16. Tom Selway 17. Karen Bettancourt 18. Sonny Famigletti 19. Perps of the Eighth 20. Dressing the Dunbars I 21. Designing with the Dunbars 22. Dr. Galloway 23. Famous Locations of the Eighth 24. Detective Jim Dunbar 25. Hank 26. Crimes of the Eighth 27. Rub-a-Tub-Tub 28. Victims of the Eighth 29. Terry Jansen 30. Unforgettable Blind Justice Dialogue 31. Unforgettable Blind Justice Dialogue II 32. Unforgettable Blind Justice Dialogue III 33. Unforgettable Blind Justice Dialogue IV 34. Lieutenant Fisk 35. More Unforgettable Blind Justice Dialogue 36. Jim & Christie Dunbar 37. Bettancourt & Dunbar 38. Ron’s Roles in Other Movies/TV/Plays 39. Dressing the Eighth IIC'est tout . . . for now.

Another idea (from the chat on Tuesday): "Memorable Moments." It looks like we're in no danger of running out of ideas for new topics anytime soon.

I really really like the idea of doing the eps in order!
I know I don't play uch, and when I do I often mess up but I love reading them.

Oh, what the heck . . . where is it written that we can't have two games going at once? While the gang over in ABC Game I finishes up the last four letters of the alphabet, I'll start the game here in ABC II. Just the first idea of a few I have in reserve. March 8, 2005 (For our European and Oz friends, that was the date of the American premiere.) A is for Anticipation . . . would this show be any good?

Nice idea, Maggie. March 8, 2005 (For our European and Oz friends, that was the date of the American premiere.) A is for Anticipation . . . would this show be any good? B is for blind, all about whether Jim "could"

Oh, well, on to the next letter, even if it's not much of a rhyme. D is for Death by Hollywood, where Bochco first published the idea.

[ C is for CBS, which didn't turn a blind eye to this idea. CBS? I guess you didn't want to use the name of That Network. Oh, well, on to the next letter, even if it's not much of a rhyme. I noticed that too . Just change it to: C is for ab C, which didn't turn a blind eye to this idea.

CBS? I was sure someone would do "B for Bochco," but there's always S for Steven . . . . Absolutely, karma to mlm828 for the cover art from Death by Hollywood. And on we go . . .

Or maybe I should Smite you -- what rhymes with idea? I've got it! No smiting -- please! Besides, you don't have to try to find a rhyme for "idea." I already tried, with "D" -- only to conclude there aren't any.

Aw, I'd never Smite you, mlm! Besides, you could always do something about the Dunbars going for Pottery Barn versus Ikea. Simultaneous posts! We have a D, and many words rhyme with arm.

You know, I think I pulled us off point with my "E" entry, and for that I apologize. I was going for first impressions and talking about the writing, the directing, how the show hit all of us in the beginning. Oh, things like T is for Tuesday, S is for screenplay, etc. Sorry! I mean, it's not like we can't do another round o The PIlot any old time . . . like when this is finished? ;D

I was going for first impressions and talking about the writing, the directing, how the show hit all of us in the beginning. Oh, things like T is for Tuesday, S is for screenplay, etc. Sorry! I was wondering about that. So let's try this: March 8, 2005 (For our European and Oz friends, that was the date of the American premiere.) A is for Anticipation . . . would this show be any good? B is for blind, all about whether Jim "could." C is for ABC, which didn't turn a blind eye to this idea. D is for Death by Hollywood, where Bochco first published the idea. E is for Eventually, when Karen offered her arm . . . . F is for Lt. Fisk, who didn't want his other detectives to come to any harm. G is for taking a Gamble by putting the show on the air.
