Easter egg: For each episode, push the "+" sign next to the play button. After pushing this, a selection of choices will come up. Whilst you are on "Play Episode", push up. Some sort of symbol will come up on the blue or red chair shaped like >||<. Push play and a deleted scene or a behind the scenes clip will be played. Episodes: "Barting Over", "C.E.D'oh!", "Three Gays of the Condo" and "Brake My Wife, Please" will have the >||< symbol on the red chair whilst episodes: "How I Spent My Strummer Vacation", "Bart vs. Lisa vs. The Third Grade", "The Dad Who Knew Too Little", "A Star is Born-Again", "'Scuse Me Whilst I Miss The Sky", "Old Yeller-Belly" and "The Bart of War" will have the >||< symbol on the blue chair. "Treehouse of Horror XIII" will have the >||< symbol on both chairs. However, the episodes "Helter Shelter", "The Great Louse Detective", "Special Edna", "The Strong Arms of the Ma", "Pray Anything", "I'm Spelling as Fast as I Can", "Mr. Spritz Goes To Washington", "Dude, Where's My Ranch?" and "Moe Baby Blues" don't have the >||< symbol at all meaning no Easter egg for those episodes.
The Simpsons (1989)
1 easter egg in Season 14 generally
Continuity mistake: This is a mistake for the introduction from seasons 2-20 (1991-2009). When Homer screams, he turns round. You see this in a wide shot. There are no boxes to the right of the door in the garage. However, two just appear out of thin air when he runs through the garage. (00:01:50)
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.
Trivia: The Simpsons holds the record for most guest stars; it is also the only non-variety show to have had appearances from three former Beatles (Paul, George and Ringo).
Who Shot Mr. Burns? (2) - S7-E1
Question: Chief Wiggum says that Space Invaders was an addictive video game, and Groundskeeper Willie says, "Video game?" I don't understand why he is so shocked. Could someone help please?
Answer: The joke is that Willie was so addicted to Space Invaders that he believed it was reality: every time he played, he was actually defending the Earth from dangerous aliens. It's a surprise to him that it was actually a game.
