I could never remember Chandler saying his catchphrase, but knew that his friends used it every so often to mock him.

Most Mandela effects ("Luke, I am your father", risky business and the ones in this video) come from parodies. They parody the scene so much people remember the parodies rather than the original.

#6 and #5 really don't count in my opinion, because Bart DID say "Cowabunga" and Chandler DID say "Could I be...?". Just because it wasn't repeated in every episode, doesn't mean people are misremembering. Re-runs are a thing, so many HAVE heard those lines repeated, over and over.

How about when Hyde predicted that he'd end up in prison or when Jackie said that she wanted to have Kelso's babies?

There was also a show called *Caroline* _in_ *the City* so that may have led to the confusion.

Nah the Flintstones one got me 😭🤣 I had no idea

[dhenderson]

On the "Flintstones",

Flintstones makes sense, since it is a combination of "flint" and "stone", just like how most other surnames in the show all relate to rocks or stone (e.g. Mr Slate).

I grew up in Brazil watching The Flintstones and a few years ago I got a job at Cartoon Network in the UK so I had to edit some episodes of the show. First thing I thought: "Oh, here they spell Flintstones with an extra T". 😂

[ttww]

5:36 the Bart quotes from the arcade game also help skew this.

Sex and the City is one of my favorite shows but I’ve always thought Sex IN the City just makes more sense.

[annejohnson]

On "Mad Men" it was said that Donald Draper's catchphrase was "If you don't like what they're saying, change the conversation ". But I have seen every episode of the series many times and I only heard him actually say it once. I know that's how he lived his life, but I don't remember him saying that line more than once.

As chandler would say: Could this video be any more interesting?
When I was younger, and would watch "I love lucy" in reruns, I swear he said, "lucy, you have some 'splainin' to do!"

Awesome video about The Mandela effec in sitcom 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟👌👌

[robertdoherty]

Don’t forget ‘’beam me up, Scotty’’ - never said.

[carlos-vpdf]

i think people' got fonz jacket confused with henry winkler, s black jacket in the movie lords of flatbush with stallone

[dhenderson]

This isn't a sitcom, but:

Never once did Mr T ever say "I pity the fool" on the "A-Team".

[stephenr.wattsauthor]

Maybe the Mandela effect for The Flintstones started when someone from Utah said the title out loud. In Utah, everyone tends to omit the “t”from the middle of certain words. For example, “mountain” is pronounced “moun-in, ” and “fountain” is pronounced “foun-in.” You never know, but it would make a lot of sense.

[robbiescheid]

Finally someone's saying it I still call the show Sex in the City and I never get corrected I'm not alone

[KeepAnEyeOnDan]

There is also a knock off brand of Sex and the City merchandise called Sex in the City

[chazarcola]

For years, I thought that SEX AND THE CITY
was actually SEX WITH THE CITY.
