Untitled
editI think there is a continuity error in this episode. In Lisa's music class, one of the songs featured is "Pop Goes the Weasel". But, in The PTA Disbands!, Data states that "now that Largo's gone, we can play the forbidden music", and they all start playing "Pop Goes the Weasel". Should this be included?--Orthologist 15:35, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
Disagree
editI completely disagree that "The episode title is both a reference to the 1985 Robert Zemeckis film Back to the Future, where George McFly mixes up the words "destiny" and "density"" It's just a play on words that occurs twice. To think the writers purposely threw a one-line allusion to the film in is pretty ridiculous.Dkkicks 17:30, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
- It is no longer in the article. Gran2 07:03, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
- What makes the two of you so certain?--kwg06516 19:49, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
- Well... because I took it out of the article... hence why I know its no longer in it... Gran2 20:03, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
- I think they meant how do you know it isn't a reference to Back to the Future? It's a fairly unusual phrase, it doesn't seem to be directly referencing anything in the episode itself, and it's on par with the other pop culture reference titles. I'd say that it likely is an allusion to the film. Perhaps the sentence should be included with the addition of the word "might". Novium 12:16, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
- You can't include this statement in the article without a citation to back it up. Unless the writers directly say so, it's original research. ([[[User:Sugar Bear|Sugar Bear]] (talk) 06:18, 5 March 2009 (UTC))

Goofs
editI think those 2 goofs are acceptable. I rewatched the scene over and over to make certain of what I saw. ZSoraz 19:00, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
- Sorry but goofs are not inlcuded in The Simpsons episode pages anymore. They are trivia and not important at all, especiallly not in a Good Article like this. Gran2 19:02, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
- Goofs should not be included in any episode article per WP:EPISODE. --Maitch 12:42, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Reception
editThere doesn't seem to be any mention of any unfavorable views of the episode. I seem recall that some fans viewed the storyline as having Lisa behave out of character. (Sugar Bear (talk) 07:01, 5 March 2009 (UTC))
title
editWhen I watched it it was called Lisas date with destiny. That was on sky 1. Jamesrules90 (talk) 19:38, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
