Suggested correction: It's actually his finger, not his dog tag.

In which case, his tag is missing.

I agree, it's not his thumb because in the next shot of him in the same position, his tag is now there (or colored correctly) and his thumb isn't seen.

It looks like his thumb.

Chitty Chitty Death Bang - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: After Lois says, "When Meg and Chris turned one I missed everything," it flashes back to Lois writing 'happy birthday Meg' on the cake, and there's wallpaper border at the top of the walls, but when Peter asks her what she's doing in the kitchen the wallpaper border is gone. The paper cups that Lois filled with punch also vanish, and the rolling pin, board, etc. suddenly appear. (00:11:30)

Into Fat Air - S11-E1

Continuity mistake: When Peter and the family reach the top of Mt Everest, it shows a long shot of them all by themselves. Cut to Lois talking - another family is suddenly sitting there, and the woman says "we beat you by one hour and 11 minutes." (00:14:00)

Peter's Two Dads - S5-E10

Continuity mistake: Lois and Brian go outside and celebrate Peter's dad's death, then they come back in and sit down. Behind Lois you see the trash cans when Peter says, "But instead he called me a fat stinking drunk, those were his last words," then it cuts to a closer shot of Peter and Lois, and the trash cans have vanished. (00:12:33 - 00:12:54)

And Then There Were Fewer - S9-E1

Other mistake: When they are chasing Tom around the dining table, they huddle up in a circle. Everyone is looking at Peter talk, and when Doctor Hartman says "Damn, that is awfully risky," if you look at Carl's eyes, they clip outside their eyes to look at Hartman.

Underage Peter - S14-E14

Plot hole: They're in the Clam complaining that they can't drink when they make the revelation that Brian can because he's technically 56. But Quagmire should be able to drink, as in a much earlier episode, he's revealed to be over 60.

Suggested correction: Quagmire considers the rest of them to be his best friends. He isn't drinking because they can't drink. He is complaining because since his friends can't drink - he won't drink, so he is still pissed.

It's still a plot hole considering Quagmire's age. I think the writers messed up big time.

You make a good point, but it's awkward to be that one person who is drinking while surrounded by people who can't. So, I understand the correction that was submitted above. Because his friends are not drinking, he now feels that he can't.

It's 100% a mistake. Quagmire simply would buy them alcohol the same way Brian did when they realized he could.

Barely Legal - S5-E8

Connie: You know, Meg, there's no dogs allowed. So, you're going to have to leave. But Brian can stay.
Brian Griffin: You know, Connie, I think I have this theory about why you're such a bitch.
Connie: Excuse me?
Meg Griffin: Brian, let's just go.
Brian Griffin: No, no, no, no, no, no. Hang on a minute, Meg, hang on. You see, Connie, you're popular because you developed early and started giving handjobs when you were twelve. But now you can't stand to look in the mirror because all you see is a whore. So you pick on Meg to avoid the inevitable realization that once your body's used up by age nineteen, you're gonna be a worn out chalky skinned burlap sack that even your own stepdad won't want. How is that? Am I in the ballpark?
[Connie runs off crying].

Trivia: A Quahog is another name for a clam, thus all the jokes and places in town (like the drunken clam bar) the show makes reference about.

Business Guy - S8-E9

Question: In the episode, Peter threatens to fire Lois, and she responds with "you wouldn't" and Peter then replies with "Oh really, does the name Lacey Chabert mean anything to you?" which in turn makes Lois go wide eyed and reply with "OK, I'll behave" and Peter then goes on to add "Yes you will" Can anyone explain this joke if it is a joke to comprehend?

Answer: Lacey Chabert was the actress who originally voiced Meg in early episodes. She left of her own accord due to being in school and other acting work; Seth MacFarlane has stated there was no tension with her leaving, but it makes for a handy joke for the show.
