"And Jesus wept!"

Old Biff didn't die in 1955. He had to get the DeLorean back to 2015 so Doc, Marty and Jennifer could return to alternate 1985.

Tell me where in the world is Carmen Sandiego?

Although it would seem like an unfortunate error, it _would_ explain why it was so hard for the ACME Detective Agency to track down Carmen Sandiego. It would also be a great plot twist to some really bad "Carmen Sandiego" fanfic and/or "Mission Impossible"-style reboot.

Point of information: In the Jackie Chan sketch, Sasheer Zamata appeared to be playing the role of The Chief as depicted by the late, great Lynne Thigpen in the public television series "Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?"

There are a couple of obvious examples of what seems to be called the "reverse side flag."

The films were already digitally scanned as part of the production of the special editions. If they cleaned it up before "enhancing" it, I would think it would be a simple matter to release _that_ on Blu-Ray.

I don't think the orientation of the swoosh on the right shoulder is a mistake, although it initially looked confusing to me. It's a design choice to have the curve of the swoosh be in the direction of the forward movement.

Not if you have a technobabble solution — in this case, latinum is generally a liquid with unique properties that can't be replicated. It's embedded into the relatively worthless gold so that it's easier to exchange.

IIRC, they mentioned during one of the DVD commentaries (maybe for this episode), that one of the early plans for the show was to remix the theme song every episode. The idea was set aside (I think for being too difficult), but the handful of remixes that did make the air were a result of that.

I've had no problems on my Roku (aside from Comcast bandwidth problems at night). That said, the rewind and fast forward function is a little odd and doesn't always work.

Yes, Rick Mercer retired the "Talking to Americans" segment after Sept. 11. They still poke fun of Americans, but usually not so directly.

It sounds like you may have gotten the studio feed, sans commercials. I haven't seen it directly, but the practice you describe is what SNL has done for years but regular viewers don't see it because either the network or the local affiliate drops in commercials.

The preview for next week includes filming a sci-fi movie, for some reason. Does that count as a gimmick episode?

Sure the Empire stinks, but at least they fixed the traffic on the 405…

FYI: Showcase Showdown is the big wheel spinoff. Showcase is the final round of the game.

Yes, based on that line Jacqueline could be 1/16th white — the inverse of the joke about white people saying they're 1/16th American Indian. I took the line as a joke.

I thought that it was Kimmy's interrogation in the restaurant that got Brandon to confess.
