Political satire section - TV ad
editHaven't seen this one for a while but the ref. to "two time convicted murderer" seems wrong - I don't think Bob ever succeeds in killing anyone.
- He didn't, and according to the capsule at snpp.com, the ad refers to him as "a man twice convicted of attempted murder." I changed it.--Fingerknöchelkopf (talk) 07:23, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
Couch gag
editCan I add this sentence: "On repeats, the couch gag is where the second family sits on the couch and the first one was surprised and they all stared at each other," or any other interesting sentence 'cause I remember seeing this episode but has the couch gag, excluding the chalkboard gag?

- Several episodes have a couch gag but not a chalk gag. Not particularly notable--TimothyJacobson (talk) 03:04, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
Cultural references section
editAm I the only one who has trouble reading the cultural references section when it's in the current form? Does no one else think it's better in a bulleted form? Please respond. --Jnelson09 21:08, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- I agree, but the section is modeled after all of our GAs and FAs and the criteria for both is that everything must be in prose form. However, since this isn't a GA (yet), you can add bullets if you wish. -- Scorpion0422 21:16, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- Prose is generally better, but not if it's each paragraph is going to read like a compilation of bullet points anyway, which that section does. Better to go with bullets, cut out the middleman, and figure out a way to organize prose paragraphs from that. Croctotheface 21:19, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
- Just wanted to ask first, seeing as how Gran2 came down hard on me the last time I did, and even 2 years after joining up, I'm still a noob. Can't we change what makes an article "good?" --Jnelson09 22:14, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
Mr Burns Latin(?) quote as he enters the room of Republicans
editDoes anyone know Mr Burns somewhat Latin(?)sounding quote as he enters the room of Republicans at the castle ? It goes something like "Quorunon silerie ozum mahoc numahoc", while the Party members seated answer back: "Mahoc numahoc!" (about 6 minutes and 55 seconds into the episode)
- The words in the script are "CORANON SILARIA OZOO MAHOKE". I think it's just sinister sounding nonsense. Lankiveil (speak to me) 11:45, 18 February 2018 (UTC).
