Sky1 Bones interruption.png "Stop or My Dog Will Shoot!" Possibly Late March/Early April 2009 In the scene where Strangles wraps his tail around Homer's neck, a promo for Bones appeared on the left of the screen. HAx12hED1Uw
"Treehouse of Horror XVIII" February 2010 A banner for "Brand New Lost" appeared on the bottom of the screen. xwz-uu08RO4
"'Scuse Me While I Miss the Sky" July 9, 2010 A banner featuring a Sky News update that Raoul Moat had been surrounded by police appeared on the bottom of the screen. This was seen during a scene with Lisa lying on her bed.
"Lisa Gets an "A"" December 21, 2012 The sound went off during the scene where Homer pours salt water into the fish tank with Mr. Pinchy in.

Sky viewers only: Also, at the beginning of the second part of the episode, a "remind me" box appeared in the corner of the screen, meant to appear during the advert before the beginning of the second part, an advert for A Very JLS Christmas. However, when the green button on the remote was pressed, nothing happened (it should have gone to the planner giving the viewer the option of setting a reminder for the program.)


TV6

TV6 The Ten-Per-Cent Solution interruption.png "The Ten-Per-Cent Solution" April 17, 2012 The episode was shrunk by the end for promos and a voice over which started talking at the end of the episode. The episode was cut for a commercial and next program a few seconds before the credits should start.
