Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon

Kevin Bacon has been in over 65 movies. Maybe that is why playing Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon works so well. I didn't realize, but this game celebrates its 20th anniversary this year.

The game requires you to link celebrities to Bacon, in as few steps as possible, via the movies they have in common. The more odd or random the celebrity, the better.

For example, O.J. Simpson was in "The Naked Gun 33⅓" with Olympia Dukakis, who was in "Picture Perfect" with Kevin Bacon.

Here is the Wiki article about the game.

Let's start easy and then, if you want, we can get harder as time goes on (link through only action movies, or only on TV, etc)

So let me start ...

Link Kevin Bacon to Kathy Bates.

Kevin Bacon was on Robot Chicken with Seth Green ("Beastmaster and Commander").

Seth Green was on Robot Chicken with John Hamm ("The Godfather of the Bride").

 

Link Kevin Bacon to Jean Stapleton.

 

( My Emo Philips link was  Emo-> Kyra Sedgewick (Miami Vice, "Phil the Shill")-> John Wesley Shipp (The Closer, "Culture Shock")-> Kevin Bacon (Guiding Light, Eps in 1981). ) 

( My Emo Philips link was  Emo-> Kyra Sedgewick (Miami Vice, "Phil the Shill")-> John Wesley Shipp (The Closer, "Culture Shock")-> Kevin Bacon (Guiding Light, Eps in 1981). )

 

 

Not according to the rules, copied from above:

Okay, here's two flavors:

 

Lassie [Pal](1943)--> Elizabeth Taylor

Elizabeth Taylor--> Elizabeth Perkins (The Flintstones)

Elizabeth Perkins--> Kevin Bacon (He Said, She Said)

 

Lassie [Mason](2005)--> Samantha Morton

Samantha Morton-->Jennifer Jason Leigh (Synecdoche, New York)

Jennifer Jason Leigh--> Kevin Bacon (The Big Picture)

 

 

Next: Link Kevin Bacon to Joel Edgerton
