I don't remember which episode (probably Genesis). IIRC, it was painted on the curb in front of the house. - RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 22:01, 31 January 2007 (EST)
Yeah, it was either Genesis or Don't Look Back.--Hardvice (talk) 22:21, 31 January 2007 (EST)

Plural Possessives

I know there are other discussions on this but I can't find them. Because of the recent edit and revert and because Sanderses' sounds kind of weird to me, I did a search on this again. I found a site that explains that when a last name ends in a hard "z" sound, you usually don't add an "s" or the "-es" and simply add an apostrophe: "the Chambers' new baby." Here and Here. Is this correct? -Lөvөl 15:22, 1 June 2007 (EDT)

  • It's wrong anyway. They're the Sanders', OR Sanderses. Since their last name is Sanders, Sanderses' would be Sand-er-ses-ses. --Riddler 15:52, 1 June 2007 (EDT)
  • "The Chambers' new baby" is correct if the last name is simply "Chamber". If the last name is "Chambers", then the plural would be "the baby that belongs to the Chamberses". The plural possessive would be "the Chamberses' baby". The title of this page is read "The Sand-ers-es home" -- an apostrophe does not add any extra sounds.

- The apostrophe adds the extra "es" sound o_O--Riddler 00:10, 2 June 2007 (EDT)
