You remember the movie, right? "Eight Freaks With Legs?" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0271367/ Going back further, I remember seeing the poster for The Jetsons: The Movie, which thanks to a misplaced apostrophe, was billed as "The first movie from the family that's truly ahead of it is time!" Although now all the poster images I can find online use the correct "its," so either it was quickly corrected or I imagined it.

It just seems like the kind of thing they wouldn't care about. It happened before with "That 70s Show", too, which was originally advertised as "That 70's Show". I would say I'm *always* shocked by it, but these are the only two instances I can think of.
