Alright, we play this on the Imdb. I ask a yes or no question and the next person to post answers it. Then they ask a question, but only yes or no. To set up the question put The person beneath me...
The person beneath me has all the sound Little Rascals.

Happy Birthday, Sidewayscap! :-) You know, I always have a good time reading your posts.
And, in honor of the occasion of your birthday, I will attempt to revive the game that you suggested in this thread more than five years ago.
Yes. Yes, I do have all of the Our Gang talkies.
Let me give it a go, now. The person beneath me has met at least two Our Gang members in person.

I haven't met any Our Gang members face to face, but I did get a letter from Jackie Lynn Taylor once, and got a reply at least once from Jean Darling on the Our Gang Follies group.
The person beneath me has seen "Your Own Back Yard".

I've seen "Your Own Back Yard." When it finally comes out on DVD, it'll be well worth the wait, by the way.
The person beneath me prefers the MGM episodes over the Roach episodes.

No, I prefer the Roach years (by far, actually).
The person below me has watched an Our Gang film in the last month.

IIRC, I watched "Fish Hooky", "Canned Fishing", and "The Awful Tooth" last month.
The person below me has an Our Gang prop.

Okay, I guess nobody has an Our Gang prop. Well, I've *held* an Our Gang prop once. It was the sign for the play shown at the beginning of "Shivering Shakespeare." And actually, there were two of them. I guess they must have had a backup.
The person below thinks the series went downhill after the silent era.

I think the series went downhill after the silent era, specifically and literally in the episodes "Free Wheeling" and "Hi' Neighbor".
The person below me has seen episodes of some of the "rival" series.

The person below me has seen episodes of some of the "rival" series. I would fit into that category quite comfortably. I've seen several of the rival series, including the Big Boy comedies featuring Malcolm Sebastian, and Mickey Rooney's Mickey McGuire short films. The person below me has seen both a Dickie Jones western movie and a Harry Spear western movie.

I haven't seen either one in a western. In fact, I didn't even know Jones was in westerns.
The person below me has seen an East Side Kids film with "Sunshine Sammy" in it.

I've seen Ernie Morrison in Boys of the City.
The person below me has heard Johnny Downs, Dickie Jones, Carl Switzer and Darla Hood all sing in venues other than the Our Gang films.

I haven't heard any of them sing outside of Our Gang, and apparently nobody else here has, either, given this was posted about three weeks ago. I did, however, see Carl Switzer bothering Donna Reed in "It's a Wonderful Life".
New post: The person below me either owns or at least has held in their hands a script from any one of the 221 films.

I haven't heard any of them sing outside of Our Gang, and apparently nobody else here has, either, given this was posted about three weeks ago. I'm very surprised. Several video clips of Carl Switzer doing his comical off-key singing in non-Gangster parts have been posted on these forums in recent months. Additionally, about a month ago mtw12055 posted a link to an old radio performance promoting the new Our Gang Follies of 1938 short, and Johnny Downs appears later on in that show as a singer. Darla Hood performed a song when she guest-starred on The Jack Benny Program, and of course Dickie Jones sang his very famous "I've Got No Strings" in Disney's Pinocchio. Now back to our regularly scheduled game: New post: The person below me either owns or at least has held in their hands a script from any one of the 221 films.

I also own about four of the MGM scripts, plus "Dogs Is Dogs." The person below has a complete collection of Our Gang Comics.

Didn't Darla also voice the Chicken of the Sea mermaid? If so, I have heard her sing as well. And I'm sure we've all heard "Spanky and Our Gang" sing, but that doesn't quite count here.
