Possible duplication[edit]

@Entercontainment:

Please see:

  • "George Trying to Keep Doctor's Appointment" (1954) - season 5 ep 6, ImDB
(ImDB synopsis) "George tries to get a full day's rest before his doctor's exam, but he soon finds friends, family, a telephone repairman, roofer and electrician tromping across his bed."
  • "George Resting for Insurance Examination" season 4, ep 32, ImDB
(ImDB synopsis) "George tries to get a full day's rest before his doctor's exam, but he soon finds friends, family, a telephone repairman, roofer and electrician tromping across his bed"

I saw the season 5 ep 6 "George Trying to Keep Doctor's Appointment" on AntennaTV, so it does exist. But AntennaTV never shows season 4, ep 32

Both are listed on ImDB, but Wikipedia has always seen ImDB as crowd-sourced and unreliable. The season 4 ep 32 is mostly likely an error by ImDB and possibly should be deleted from this list.

Thoughts? I haven't attempted deleting the erroneous one, but feel to do so if you like. — Maile (talk) 20:08, 2 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]


— Maile (talk) Thank you for contacting me. I did actually watch "George Resting for Insurance Examination" season 4, ep 32 on AntennaTV. I did the short summary for the show. I do have season 5 ep 6 "George Trying to Keep Doctor's Appointment" recorded from AntennaTV, but haven't watched it yet. I'll try to do it soon and will let you know if there is a duplicate. Thanks, Entercontainment. Entercontainment (talk) 20:28, 2 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

OK. I'll leave it all up to you. — Maile (talk)

— Maile (talk) Well, I just watched season 5 ep 6 "George Trying to Keep Doctor's Appointment" recorded from AntennaTV and it is the exact same as "George Resting for Insurance Examination" season 4, ep 32. Somehow in syndication Season 5 Ep 6 has been lost. These two sites, which I believe are quite reliable do show season 5 ep 6 "George Trying to Keep Doctor's Appointment"

They each mention the plot line were George is trying to get to the doctor, but there are issues with the car and finding his keys. This is a completely different plot line then season 4, ep 32, so I believe it is real. Entercontainment (talk) 18:19, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

OK, good. Glad I asked for your input on this! — Maile (talk) 18:49, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
