The Simpsons fans spot epic blunder as character appears twice in same crowd

THE Simpsons fans have spotted an epic blunder after a character appeared twice in the same crowd.

The hit cartoon series is often bang on the money when it comes to predicting future events but fans have noticed the show has dropped the ball in one particular episode.

In season 25's White Christmas Blues, a crowd stand around the mayor and bar owner Moe.

But in among the faces is a second Moe, looking at the mayor as he gathers the residents of Springfield to tell them the town was now a tourist attraction.

Standing alongside him, Moe adds: "We will welcome the tourists with open arms – and then we'll gouge the hell out of them."

Eagle-eyed fans pointed out the fact Moe was also in the audience in a discussion group on Reddit.

While some thought it was a mistake and put it down to human error, others had their own theories as to why there were two Moes.

One wrote: "[Creator] Matt Groening is setting us up for the most epic time travel episode ever!"

Another added: "they might be making [an] episode in the future where Moe travels back in time".

The blunder comes weeks after it was revealed that actor Hank Azaria had quit as the voice of Apu after 30 years.
