I will guess "The Doctor" (Voyager's EMH) It can't be, I'm afraid: 6. Not a robot, computer, or otherwise artificial intelligence. He's definitely an "otherwise artificial intelligence". Plus the EMH from Voyager is clearly identifiable as male and is widely referred to as "he" so the "no clear gen...

I will guess "The Doctor" (Voyager's EMH)

Are obviously incorrect guesses also counted a guesses? Otherwise we're never going to finish this game.

I will start with an obviously wrong answer: Baby Sinclair from Dinosaurs.

I think the biggest candidates for TV shows with hairless non-human characters of undetermined gender that generated at least 2 spin-off films are Star Trek and Pokemon. Most Pokemon arguably have supernatural powers, so I think they're out.

Two questions is not enough to go for a timeframe I think. The genre might be an option, but I think maybe the origin will be more useful.

Was the TV show where the character first appeared in English?

I am tempted to ask if this person was born outside of the Netherlands, and then outside of Belgium, outside of France, etc.... but that would make the game a bit boring I suppose.

So I will make it slightly more interesting and ask if this person was born outside of the US.

I suggest we ask lots of questions to which the answer is most likely "Yes", and avoid 50/50 questions. If we do get a "No" answer, it should give us a lot of information.

Is this person human?

Is one of them ROBERT THE BRUCE?

We have points on the board!

A/ ROBERT THE BRUCE - 1 point!
B/ Unknown
C/ Unknown
D/ Unknown

I failed to notice you had taken the no repeats rule out.

Meta-question: Do we get 1 free guess in total, or at each of them?

I think 20 questions is not going to be enough for use to guess all 4.

Oh wow. Have to get my head around this one. Looks like the lists with answers are going to be long if we get 4 answers to each question. I will start with the usual, I don't think combining them makes sense in this scenario, so I will ask as separate questions: Real? Oh, sh!t... we can't even use o...

If Indonesian, Japanese, Filipina, Vietnamese or Iranian, it is my understanding that she would have to had been born after World War II ended.

If Chinese or Russian, she may be older.

Not sure about Japanese. It was never fully occupied was it?

Was she from one of the (currently) 10 Asian countries with the largest population, as indicated by this list:

Famous for entertaining people? (Actress, singer, TV host, sports etc...)

Born in a dominantly English speaking country?

I dunno, Hamish... from the wikipedia thing: Europe Several European countries are located either entirely or partially in the Western Hemisphere. Those countries that are located entirely in the Western Hemisphere are Iceland, Ireland, North Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. Those countries that are m...

So most likely an American actor, born in the north of the country that died somewhere between 1990 and 2010, or at least did not make any films in the last years of his life.

Canadian?

Northern Ireland maybe....
