Bumper Stumpers

Wink Martindale created this Game Show for USA Network, in which two pairs of contestants competed to solve puzzles based on vanity license plates that might have belonged to celebrities or fictional characters. After winning a toss-up, the team in control revealed one of the seven characters in a "super stumper" puzzle. The object was to solve the "super stumper" before the opposing team.
