Lisa's Pony - S3-E8

Audio problem: When Lisa rides past on her pony, Ralph is sitting on the fence with another boy who says, 'She really tamed that horse', Ralph says, 'Yes but who can tame her?' However he speaks with a deeper voice as opposed to his higher squeaky voice, and sounds exactly like Nelson Muntz. (00:15:55)

Homer Alone - S3-E15

Audio problem: When Lisa screams "Mom" on the way to school, she just leaves her mouth open and doesn't close it. It should sound like "Maaaaaa" if she keeps her mouth open. (00:03:20)

Burns Verkaufen der Kraftwerk - S3-E11

Audio problem: When Horst is checking the power plant, he sees some radioactive liquid pouring out of the chimney, he says "That shouldn't be" but his mouth doesn't move when he says "be". When he spots the raccoons he speaks but his mouth does not move at all. And at the end when Mr Burns is mocking the German men, Horst says "Burns, stop it." but his mouth doesn't move. (00:15:30)

Colonel Homer - S3-E20

Audio problem: Where Lurleen sings the line "I tried to kiss him," on the TV show Ya-Hoo!, you can see that her lips aren't moving. (00:20:35)

Suggested correction: When she sings this, the shot is of Marge.

No, the mistake is referring to the start of the line when it is clear she sings 3 or 4 words without her mouth moving. The mistake is valid.

Black Widower - S3-E21

Audio problem: During Selma and Bob's conversation at the dinner table in the Simpsons' house, Bob says "Although kissing you would be like kissing a divine ashtray." His lips don't move when he says "although".

Homer Alone - S3-E15

Audio problem: When Marge is running errands, Homer gives her his bowling ball with a bottle cap stuck in a hole. She then takes it to Nicks. When he says, "Sorry lady, you've got the wrong Nicks," he shakes his head and makes an "Ohh" shape with his mouth, not saying anything. (00:03:50)

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.
