Alright.

So what's the prize today, Dad?

Alright, the prize today is the loser.

It's a punishment today.

Well it's kind of a prize for.

the winner as well.

The loser has to laugh at all the winners' lines for the next 10 minutes like they're in a situational comedy.

Because you laugh at everything I say, right?

This is when the crickets play.

Insert crickets here please.

The correct answer was the Golden Girls.

Oh have you seen that show?

No, I haven't, but um classic sitcom, yes, right.

Uh, nice, yes, because they're all based in Miami and they're old people who live together.

Well, you want to play it like that?

Good job.

All right, plot number three.

You're up next.

Okay, kids, here is your sitcom clues.

So all of these sitcoms are kind of kid-friendly, family-friendly sitcoms.

Plot number one.

I'm gonna start off with an easy one for you, Lovella.

Okay.

Okay, and we'll warm into it.

Three men

Raise girls.

Such a good one.

Full house.

You got it.

Eh?

Nah.

Nah nah nah nah nah.

Full house.

You're on the board.

All right, plot number two

Yes.

Okay, you're doing very well.

Okay, plot number three.

Kid becomes superhero sidekick

Don't want to find FD.

Oh, Henry Danger.

What?

Yes, you got it.

I haven't watched Henry Danger, but I've seen a ton of clips and he's like

I don't know the The premise of the whole thing.

He's he's he's the s sidekick, so to the superhero.

Oh he's the he's he's not the actual superhero in this show.

He's the sidekick.

Well

I think he plays a bigger role than the superhero.

I imagine Henry Danger is the hero, is he?

Henry Danger is the the sidekick.

Yeah, okay, right.

Gotcha

All right.

Well done.

You so far, three out of three.

You're about to get a clean sweep.

I sure am.

We'll see.

We'll see.

I probably just jinxed it.

All right.

Plot number four.

Let's see if you know this one.

Child genius starts school

Child genius starts school.

Uh-huh.

Child genius starts school.

I'm gonna give you a little hint.

Okay.

You ready?

I'm gonna give you a hint.

Wait, have I seen this?

I don't think you have seen this series again.

Okay, I thought so.

But if I give you a hint, I actually think you m I think you know of this series.

Yeah.

But maybe you haven't seen it

It's actually a prequel one of the sitcoms you had me guess.

I'm looking at my sitcoms.

Remember the remember the Bazenga one?

It's the prequel to that.

So the big bang theory.

Mmm.

Any idea?

I think when I tell you the title, you'll remember it, but Okay, I don't know.

I probably will know when you tell me.

It is young Sheldon.

Oh m what?

Have you seen Syang Children?

I have seen like maybe half of the first season when I was younger.

I thought you'd seen that.

I thought we put that on the video.

I was like, oh, I'm not in the mood for t I didn't realize it was a spin-off of like

The prequel to Big Bang Theory.

Yeah.

I had no idea.

So the guy who says Bazinger, I think that is Sheldon in Big Bang Theory.

So it's the story of him as a child.

What?

That's interesting.

So it's called Young Sheldon.

Young Sheldon isn't played by the same.

No, it's played by a different kid.

Different kid, obviously.

Maybe when the actor who plays Sheldon is older

They'll do a spin-off series called Old Sheldon and it can be him when he's older.

Be funny.

When he's in like his eighties or something.

Yeah.

But I've seen clips and

Maybe a few episodes of Young Sheldon before.

But that's cool.

I didn't know that.

Okay.

Well guess what?

We're going to our tiebreaker.

What?

Because we're both on three out of three.

Both got three.

All right.

So tiebreaker round or the bonus round if it's not a tie in your car, it's just the bonus round.

So one question worth two points.

First team to buzz in.

gets the two points.

But if you get it wrong, they go to the other person.

Okay?

That's how it works.

So make sure you know what the answer is before you buzz.

All right, Lovella, you have the bonus tiebreaker question in front of you.

Here we go.

I'm ready.

Bonus tiebreaker plot.

Two families become one.

Buzz.

I don't know.

You don't know?

No.

I don't know.

I definitely know.

It's the Brady Bunch.

Is it?

This is the Brady Bunch.

Let me see.

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yes.

A very, very old situation.

I have not seen the Brady Bunch.

I don't I don't think I've seen many episodes of the Brady Bunch either.

I'm guessing it's about two

Families who end up parents are getting married.

Yeah well it's something kinda like that.

I think it's two parents come out of a divorce or possibly their wives or spouses passed away.

I can't remember the the genesis of it, but

They're two families kind of blended family.

They all start living together.

It's three boys and three girls.

Yeah.

All right, Dad.

Well, congratulations.

You won the sitcoms episode.

Yeah, that means you have to laugh at all of my jokes, which you already do anyway, right?

You've gotta be better than that.

You gotta be it's this is a laugh track for a sitcom.
