Was it just me or was there a few "blunders" in tonight episode? I'm pretty sure the following dialog took place:
"Now your Emily Dickonson!" "Woo! Look at me! I'm Angie Dickonson!"
(Those aren't the exact words, I don't have the episode in front of me to find out, trying to find it though.)
There was the last scene with Moe opening his envelope and the table disappeared between scenes.
Am I just on crack or did they do it on purpose?
I doubt that was a blunder. Homer is just much more likely to know Angie D rather than Emily D.
Didn't notice that one.
I think that was intentional, AD being the hot babe she is.
Even my wife noticed this one.

I didn't think anything of it, just an attempt at a joke I didn't understand, or wasn't funny. Maybe you're right though.
Yeah, I noticed that one too, it was pretty apparent. Overall, I'm pretty dissatisfied with this episode. It started out alright, something I could have honestly said I liked, but it got a little over the top as far as believability goes as it went along.

Another one I just now remembered was "Sexington's" name. I believe it was first Ted, then changed to Chad.
Could also be a terrible memory on my part. Anyone back it up?
It was always Chad.

I'm not sure. I watched it again, and I say it started as Ted, and then changed. It was only said 2-3 times, so maybe it's just me. and taveren.

I've conducted four straight, and on the phone, Homer definitely says Tad,
then Chad when he's at the door. The US Supreme Court, however, would not hear the case, with with Justice Bader-Ginsburg replying "What kind of people are these that argue over a name in a tv show".

Interesting that the CC says "Chad Sexington"...
Of course I'm biased... not that my *ahem* name has anything to do with it... (Ted S. would probably argue)

They ruined all our best names! Like Bruce, and Lance, and Chad, and Julian! Those were the toughest names we had! We NEED them!
You've conducted four straight what's? I heard Chad everytime by the way. The name Tad never entered my head while watching that ep.

That would be recounts. Now, thanks to this argument, my damn VCR ate the tape. Damn cheapo VCR.
Oh, I see it now. I glanced over that line above it. This will probably be a never ending debate so it's a shame you lost your tape on it.

Tad,
No, I thought he said "Ted" the first time, and "Chad" afterward, so I assumed I misheard him the first time.
Dr Music P.S. Parking was ample.

I'm with you here, but to me it sounded like "Tad" at first.
You probably didn't understand it, fuckwad, because you are stupid as Homer. The hyptonist kept telling Homer to be people that Homer had no idea who they were, like Emily Dickenson.

Actually, I think your failing to understand it. The joke was that Homer would simply say "Look at me, I'm so-and-so!" without actually doing anything that person would do. There was no reason to change the name. What difference would it make if Homer knows who Angie Dickenson is or not? He didn't try to act like anyone anyways.

Way to go, genius, I picked up upon that part. Evidently you failed the literacy requirement of my post, so you didn't have to reply to pretend like you knew you were talking about. Really, now, if you feel you need to flaunt your understanding of at most one of the jokes on the show, we're all on to you, shitstain.
Er...Homer isn't exactly the brighest fruit in the tree. It was pretty much a given that he would get the name wrong, especially since he's probably got no idea who Emily Dickenson was.
I thought I saw something but it was too quick to tell. Lasted a frame or two.
You're on stupid.
=v= Agreed, though "Leaves of grass, my ass!" .-.

|\/\/\/| / /I think the idea was that Homer had no idea who those people were so he couldn't imitate them when he was hypnotized.or even get the name right. That's why the hypnotist resorted to turning him into his younger self so at least he would know who that was.
Kevin
You're a fucking moron. You, like Homer, probably didn't know who Emily Dickenson is.
Fuckwad.

You may, in fact, be on crack, but that was very intentional -- and, imo, pretty funny. The idea is that Homer has no idea who Emily Dickinson is, so he converts it in his head to Angie Dickinson, an actress that he would certainly know and maybe even have a crush on.
