How to play the famous TV episodes timeline game

Each card is one celebrated episode of television, with the name of its show printed under the title, and you're ordering them by the year it first aired. One episode starts on the timeline with its year visible. Every new card goes into a gap you choose among the episodes already placed. Choose right and the year appears. Choose wrong and the episode still moves to its correct spot, but you lose one of three lives.

Sitcoms, prestige dramas, animation and science fiction sit side by side here, and several shows have more than one card. That gives you two puzzles at once: placing each show in TV history and placing its episodes against each other. A long-running series can produce classics far apart, so knowing when a show started only gets you halfway.

Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
