    I'm glad this gave you trouble, and congrats on solving it. Looking at the stats, it did give people a lot of trouble.

    For the sitcoms the show wasn't Burn it was Burn Notice. Coach aired in the same time frame as both Blossom and Full House, early 90s.
    For Randy's puzzle ... the spelling of JULIETTE threw me for a loop for awhile because in the NATO alphabet its actually JULIETT/JULIET. I kept chasing the other NATO letters because I was positive the spelling was a red herring.

    I've been Lady A for 20 years. I started using it at my job for my custom recipes so my customers knew it was mine. After leaving tha job after 17 years, I haven't used it much. I was tickled when you called me this.

    Solved Randy's puzzle:

    🟩🟩🟩🟩 Dances : March didn't sound like a dance and I was right.
    🟦🟪🟪🟪With FOXTROT and TANGO out of the way, I isolated the NATO Alphabet. I was certain it was Juliet, not Juliette. Turns out it's Juliett. Go figure.
    🟨🟨🟨🟨The months with an equinox or solstice.
    🟪🟪🟪🟪NATO Phonetic Alphabet. JULIETTE had to be a part, took out Delta because it being the 4th letter in the Greek Alphabet, April being the 4th month.
    🟦🟦🟦🟦It occurred to me James Madison was probably the 4th US president and NUMBERS is probably the 4th book in the Old Testament. (or the Torah). Nice Aha moment.
    I might consider the blue and purple roles switched, but that's splitting hairs. Nice puzzle. I think Wyna Liu would be proud.

    This may be the second-hardest Connections-type puzzle I've ever attempted (the hardest being Oranje2, which I still haven't solved). 😆 I resisted putting JULIETTE in the NATO category, because I thought that was spelled JULIET (which I think it usually is). I feel pretty good about coming up with my first two misses even though they weren't correct. Blue is really clever. If my brain hadn't been so tired at that point, I MIGHT have been able to name that. 😆

    Wow, that was brutal! Looked like poker hands should be there, but I could only see 3. (Was there one I didn't know the name of?) I had the same issue with the sitcoms; knew 3 (COACH, FULL HOUSE, BLOSSOM) but not 4. Guessed FLIGHT first. Guessed COMMUNITY second (lucky!) Also had 3 for trying foods: PLATTER, SAMPLER, TASTING, but not 4. With some words eliminated I went with "without breaks", although that connection seemed a bit weak to me. That left FLIGHT for the foods. WHAT?? I have looked that up now, and I STILL don't really understand it.

    This was the most I've ever seen you struggle with a puzzle. I thought that it was a really tough puzzle, even though I did better than my score of "1" a few days ago. The only two "Sitcoms" I knew were "Full House" and "Coach." I vaguely remembered "Blossom" from another NYT puzzle, and got lucky with "Community. " it took me a while to remember this newer use of "Flight." You're still the best puzzle solver I've seen thus far!! No worries. ❤😊

      I agree, Oranje, but it is EASIER for YOU to say since you are overly OUTSTANDING in these NYT games. Also, RARELY failing in these games is quite good, Tigerboy. Most of your really good players like Art and Doug have a lot of successful games with occasional failures. Oranje will eventually fail in Connections. It won't be, however, until I'm long gone and when his kids are middle aged parents. 😊
