Saturdays of Thunder - S3-E9

Continuity mistake: When Homer sulks on the couch, he has a pillow under his head, which is pink. In a closer shot, the pillow turns light blue, but in another shot, the cushion has turned pink again. (00:17:10)

Flaming Moe's - S3-E10

Continuity mistake: As Homer watches TV at the beginning, if you look really closely, you can see the remote on the couch colored to be exactly like brown. It then disappears eventually, and then reappears. (00:01:35 - 00:02:30)

Suggested correction: Homer pulls up in the car with his white shirt on. The very next shot is him walking in. We don't see him park or get out of the car. What's to say he didn't just grab a jacket out of the car?

Suggested correction: The bottles remain on the bar, the knife is not placed on the bar so could easily have been put under the bar where Moe is known to keep a shotgun.

Suggested correction: The place is crowded, she can easily be anywhere in the packed bar and simply out of sight.

Flaming Moe's - S3-E10

Other mistake: When Moe is calling for a 'Hugh Jazz' there is a shot of the bar and Otto can be seen in the upper right corner. However his face is all distorted and out of proportion. (00:14:30)

The Cartridge Family - S9-E5

TV Announcer: The Continental Soccer Association is coming to Springfield. It's all here: fast kicking, low scoring. And ties? You bet.
Bart: Hey Dad, how come you've never taken us to see a soccer game?
Homer: I don't know.
TV Announcer: You'll see all your favorite soccer stars. Like Arriaga, Arriaga II, Barriaga, Aruglia, and Pizzozza.
Homer: Oh, I've never heard of those people.
TV Announcer: And they'll all be signing autographs.
Homer: Woohoo!
TV Announcer: This match will determine once and for all which nation is the greatest on Earth. Mexico or Portugal.

Tree House of Horror V - S6-E6

Question: Homer travels back in time and causes changes by what he does in the past, like stepping on a bug. I once saw a movie with the same basic plot: some people travel back in time and are told to be careful not to disturb anything, but when they return to their time everything has changed. In the end they discover it was because they stepped on a butterfly. Does anyone know the name of this movie?

Answer: I'm not sure if this is the one you're thinking of, but an episode of "Ray Bradbury Theatre," called "A Sound of Thunder," dealt with a similar matter: a group of hunters travel back in time to hunt dinosaurs, only to find things have changed when they get back because someone stepped on a butterfly.
