What, the "Swingers" thing? I prefered this one.
She said "This is Albert, my aspidistra." She didn't call it "uncle". It may
still be a tribute, of course, in a vague way, to an alien species of
dragon-based life forms. I don't recall if the "character" in the show was
ever called "Albert", but I don't think it was.
T.A.G. seems to be one of those things that a relatively small proportion of
people remember, but those that do are huge fans. I once included a
reference in an Amber game. 3/4 of the players said "what the hell's that?"
and the others said "wow, fantastic".
I'd love to see a couple again, particularly if I could find the one where
the puzzle involves floating a ping-pong ball to the top of a narrow tube by
solving a complicated water puzzle, and one contestant just puts her hand
down and picks it out. Strangely enough, when asked to do it again later,
her hand won't fit in the tube at all.
