Just a few minutes ago on ESPN2's Wednesday Night Baseball game between the Dodgers and the Giants, Chris Berman (himself a former game show host) referenced To Tell the Truth and said the Dodgers' pitcher was "pitching Peggy Cass."

Boomer said that now he was 50 years old, most people his age would get it (but those under 50 may not)...

Will Smith plays Hutch?

I get it, but I don't know WHY he would say that, or why you would repeat it here.

Oh really? Well, a very close friend of mine was on the phone with another friend of hers, and she said that he was the Weakest Link! I had to post that mindless tidbit, like OMG! r0xx0rs! w00t! DOUBLE THE POINTS!

I notice you love to make fun of contestant's bad answers, although it's been discussed this one was not as bad. Let's see just how well YOU'D do.

Esoteric Eric; even though I'm *only* 45, I know lots about Peggy Cass, even though I was quite surprised to see her actually act in If It's Tuesday... This Must Be Belgium (the title of which, coincidentally, was parodied by the J! category titlers ("...This Must Be Belgian") in round one of the 5/25 final.)

On the show Pardon us, ESPN sucks now they mentioned a feud between two people! That must be a reference to the game show!

Brian feels the need to repeat every single game show reference he hears on TV.
