I ca n’t get over Pikachu …
If you’ve never heard of the Mandela effect before, it’sa phenomenonwhere lots of people share a collective memory that turns out to be wrong.
Werecently wroteabout how this can show up inmovie quotes, so we thought we’d share some examples from tV too. Enjoy!
1.There’s no black tip to Pikachu’s tail.
2.Nobody says “Lucy, you have some ‘splaining to do!” inI love Lucy.Instead, it’s"‘Splain that if you can" and “Lucy, ‘splain.”
3.When accepting her Oscar, Sally Fields never said “You like me, you really like me!".Instead, it was"I can’t deny the fact that you like me, right now, you like me!”.
4.The theme tune forMister Rogerswas never “It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood. It’s actually"a beautiful day inthisneighborhood.”
5.Curious Georgenever had a tail.
6.Meanwhile, Mickey Mouse has always had a tail (unless it’s tucked into his clothes). Watch anything,oldornew.
7.There is no “Beam me up, Scotty” inStar Trek. It was justnever, ever said.

13.It’sLooney Tunes, not Looney Toons (though that’d make more sense).
