Continuity mistake: In 'Wasted Talent', near the end of the Chumba-Wumba song about Joe being in the wheelchair, the Chumba-Wumbas wheel Joe till he is about 15 yards away from the gate. Then as the shot cuts, Joe and the Chumba-Wumbas are standing right next to the gate. How did this happen? Nobody moved him. (00:10:30)

Wasted Talent - S2-E20

Audio problem: At the piano competition you see Peter playing towards the left side of the piano and hear the pitch going higher. This wrong because the keys for the high pitches are on the right side of the piano.

Lois: Hello?
Peter: I can't take the trash out today, I'm working late at the office.

Peter: [Edging sideways.] OK, can you see me now?
Lois: No.

Grumpy Old Man - S10-E9

Trivia: One of the cutaway gags is about someone who survived 9/11 because he was late for work watching late night football. Seth MacFarlane missed his flight, which would have been one of the flights to crash into the World Trade Center, because his agent had given him the incorrect departure time. The plane was scheduled to depart at 7:45 AM and his agent had told him it was departing at 8:15 AM. By the time Seth arrived the boarding had been closed and he was told he would have to catch a later flight.

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.
