I\'m watching Super Password right now, and one of the contestants, Michael, looks very familiar. Is this the same Michael who was on one of the first episodes of the 1990\'s Joker\'s Wild?

The episode in question originally aired on February 18, 1987.

What was his last name?

Cedar.

I can\'t see him, but there was a Michael Cedar on the show in that first week. It\'s possible.

Hey Travis - how were you able to get that info? Just curious.

The first few episodes in question are on Youtube. I watched them and remembered his name. That\'s all.

Here\'s his IMDB page:

Not long after I got his TJW90 episode in a trade, I recognized him from a rerun of Mama\'s Family. It seems he was a starving actor who used game shows to supplement his acting gigs (of which he only got 4 anyway).

Thanks - I guess what I\'m trying to get at is that a little elbow grease and some Google searching can go a long way to find what one needs before posing the question here.

After questions pertaining to the Caesar\'s Challenge pilot and if someone would just bloody well post every single category used on every episode of eight years of Joker\'s Wild, I\'m inclined to look kindly upon a one-time question that I can help out. If it became a regular thing, less kindly. But as it is I was happy to help.

I was expecting this thread to be about them...

He was also on \"Body Language\" in the fall of 1985.

Considering \"zed\" and \"Z\" are two different words in America I\'d think that would stand, no?

Merriam-Webster gives the former as one of two pronunciations for the latter.
