Kif Gets Kicked Up..

I hadn't seen this episode before. I enjoyed it, and I'm *so* glad it didn't end by pushing a re-set button; about half-way through, I was sure that it was going to turn out that Kif and Amy were stuck in the HoloShed all along.

It's "Kif Gets Knocked Up a Notch". In reference to him getting knocked up, of course.

'tis confusing though, given that Elzar originally did say "kick". Was this changed to "knock" due to some copyright?

Emeril must have copyrighted it around the time he made his ill fated sitcom...

pregnant.

Thats already been said, is obvious, and wasn't my point. 3 for 3!

If it's so obvious, then why would you ask if it was changed due to copyright issues?

It does address your point. The answer to your question is "Unlikely." Or, "Because the play on words works better this way."

Not to mention the fact that the original topic had NOTHING to do with Elzar...

Hmm. You took their side but at least you seem to understand what I said.

Sigh.

With respect to "already been said", I was referring to David's initial reply having already explained the reasoning behind the episode title.

With respect to "is obvious", I was referring to the fact that most people know what "knocked up" means.

With respect to what you cut, "my point", I was asking a question about Elzar and the fact that in his first appearance he said "kick it up a notch", and thereafter always said "knock it up a notch".

No - It doesn't, but I don't care anyway. Clearly nobody actually has an answer to the question.

Bam!

Now I believe I understand. You are asking an entirely different question, but you posted it under this same thread, and without even really hinting that you were changing the direction of the thread.

Your entire post consisted of:

Since we were talking about the episode title, I'd wager that most people would expect the antecedent of "this" in your sentence to be "the episode title."

I now agree that it does not address your point, but it's only because your point was as clear as mud.

Clearly you need to work on your writing skills.

For instance, you could have written

"Speaking of which, I noticed that Elzar originally said 'kick it up a notch' but in later episodes he says 'knock it up a notch.' Did they change it because of some copyright issue?"

Point taken. I have a habit of being concise to the point of confusing. I can't promise i'll try to change, but i'll try to try to change.

Better than than top-posting w/o trimming though :-)

It's the effort that counts. I know I'm not perfect either...
