Oh dear...

Yeah, I saw it too.

Speaking of bad editing... right after Heidi said "Who is the biggest monkey wrench in the system?" they cut to Kim who was obviously and poorly dubbed "Paulie" but her lips were saying something completely different.

For the last few seasons, they entire production has been in "screw it, whatever" mode.

Interesting.

Sorry..what exactly is the "time code"..? thanks.

reply

It's numbers that stamp code the clips w the hour, minute, second and frame ... for example a typical time code looks like this:

17:23:17:02

And we care because . . . ?

reply

Because it's a huge mistake.

reply

Well, your full of hyperbole. It's not a huge mistake. It reveals nothing other than the amount of time that shot took. It's a small mistake.

The numbers reveal nothing about the date the scene was shot. Season 15 and 16 were filmed about 18 months ago, which places the year it was shot in 2014. These episodes would have been edited shortly after they were shot.

The time code appears at 17:21 in my video player and disappears at 17:22.It's one scene and it only reveals The Venetian logo above the casino.

So yeah, why should we care that the editors forgot to eliminate the time code when they edited this episode?

there are always people out to "EXPOSE" shows. Like seriously if you don't like it don't watch it. I can tell you who wins because i've been to the restaurant in question, its in vegas and its not hard to get too.

As we grow we learn, i have learned that if you don't like me grow up or ignore me.
