Six Degrees of Smallville

[redkryptoniteisthebest]

I got the idea from a poster on the Yes Man thread.

If you know how to play the Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, then this will be simple. But, if you don't, then heres the rules:

1) Connect five actors/actresses (or DCU characters) to Smallville. Any way you want, but it has to make sense.
2) Name a movie that movie that actor/actress has been in, if they are dating someone or are married to someone, that all ties in to some cast member or guest star on Smallville or Supernatural.

Easy as that!

(I'm not so good at it, though. Haha!)

I was wondering if a thread like this would start because of that post..But I'm not good at this either and I wouldn't even know where to start..

[redkryptoniteisthebest]

Haha, I hope this thread goes a while. The possibilities are endless, really.

[pizzahead2490]

what is it all about???

[redkryptoniteisthebest]

Basically, you connect any movie actor to Kevin Bacon in a movie he's been in. So, like Smallville, you connect any DC hero, character or anyone in the DCU to Smallville.

[pizzahead2490]

[Fridaythe13Jason]

This is crazy, but who knows? It could turn out to be fun. We've all heard of the game "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon", right? The idea is, Kevin Bacon has been in so many movies, that it's theoretically possible to connect him to any other actor in six moves (movies) or less. Well, I thought we'd try it Smallville style. Instead of connecting people to Kevin Bacon, we'll be connecting Smallville guest stars to each other. Because some characters appear in many/most episodes, there will be a group of main characters you can't use. They are:
Clark (off limits)
Johnathan (off limits)
Martha (off limits)
Lana (off limits)
Chloe (off limits)
Pete (off limits)
Lex (off limits)
Lionel (off limits)
Lois (off limits)
Oliver (off limits)
Tess (off limits)
Davis (off limits)
Jimmy (off limits)
Whitney (off limits)
Jason Teague (off limits)
Kara (off limits)
*In other words, you can only use the guest stars to make connections. **Pretty much if their name has ever appeared in the opening credits, don't use them.
Examples of characters you can use to make connections are: Emily Dinsmore, Bart, AC, Victor Stone, Alicia, Nell, Dominick, Perry, Sheriff Ethan, Roger Nixon, Sheriff Adams, Morgan Edge, Helen Bryce, Seth, Adam Knight, Bridgette Crosby, Jor-El, Virgil Swann, Brainiac, Aethyr, Nam-ek
Raya, Bizzaro (yes, he counts), John Jones, Dinah Lance, etc.
*You will need to pick guest stars who have appeared more than once to make connections. If they've only appeared once, they'll be a "dead end".
**Also, we are connecting character to character, NOT actor to actor. So in the case of Emily Dinsmore and Morgan Edge (who have both been played by multiple actors), you can use both episodes they appeared in, even though they were played by different people each time. Remember, it's the character, not the actor.

Here's an example.
Connect Dominic Senatori to Shelby
Step one: Dominic was in "Hothead" with Nell Potter
Step two: Nell Potter was in "Ryan" with Dr. Garner
Step three: Dr. Garner was in "Memoria" with Jor-el
Step four: Jor-el was in "Solitude" with Shelby
See, four steps!

OK, let's try this for real now.
Connect Desiree Atkins to Doomsday (must be Doomsday, NOT Davis)

***The internet movie database (IMDB.com) is a wonderful resource.
***Please make sure it CAN be done before you post it. Work it out first to be sure. Otherwise, you could end up driving people nuts for no good reason.
