SPARING
THE SNARK
Author:

The
words in the puzzle can be rearranged to form twenty teasers for episode recaps
on the website Television Without Pity ("Spare The Snark, Spoil The
Show.") The site indexes episodes by show, and then [season number]-[episode
number]. Using these numbers as indexes into the show title we get pairs of
letters (this is not an obvious thing to do, but the first pair is provided to
help you decide this is a good thing to do, and the pair of numbers always has
a second number larger than the first.)
