So, I kind of forgot about these for a couple weeks there… Sorry about that! But, I’ve got a couple ahead that are going to be a lot of fun to celebrate some new shows, new movies, and new-to-me shows. First up, it’s the Iron Man edition, featuring the man himself, Robert Downey Jr.! Six […]
The Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon
This is the party game, The Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, in blog form. The post is laid out starting with one actor, often one with a new TV series, season, or new movie coming out, who then is connected to Kevin Bacon within six degrees of separation based on a progressive chain of films connecting one actor (one degree of separation) to the next.
To make it more challenging, I like to use only movies I have actually seen as connections, and I try not to re-use connections, people or films, too often, but that's not always possible. It's a lot of fun, and it's a unique feature I'm proud to have here on the blog, so check out the posts and see if you can beat my score!

In honor of one of my all-time favorite characters on the show, Mrs. Joan Holloway/Harris, aka Christina Hendricks, this week’s Six Degrees of […]
Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon Episode 1: Game of Thrones Edition
Since it’s the premiere of the much anticipated season of Game of Thrones, I thought I’d do an episode of my favorite game, the Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon. If you’re not familiar with the game, it’s based on the six degrees of separation principle in which you ought to be able to connect one […]
