Wonder Woman (1976)
The New Original Wonder Woman - S1-E1
Stupidity: There's much fuss about who will take Steve Trevor back which is resolved via a contest. Why the Amazons don't heal him, if possible, then set him adrift to a safe port is never asked. They did this when Nazis invaded in the two part episode The Feminum Mystique.

Spider-Man (1994)
Partners in Danger Chapter 9: The Haunting of Mary Jane - S4-E9
Question: How could Miranda getting scarred in an accident, as this appears to be the case, cause her to need become a cyborg as it appears to be in the episode?
Answer: I don't think the intent is for her to be a cyborg. Since she suffered a facial disfiguration and had no access to medical treatment or reconstructive surgery, the mask on her face probably serves to hide her scars. Plus, since she's the episode's villain, it helps to make her look more menacing.

Halloween (2007)
Question: Why did Michael spare Annie?
Answer: He knew she was Laurie's friend.
But he didn't spare Lynda, and she was also Laurie's friend.
Lynda was vulgar towards him in the beginning, and they also broke into what used to be his home to have sex. Honestly, not surprised he ended up killing her and her boyfriend (who are another representation of his sister and her boyfriend whom he killed).
Annie was either bait or he just had not finished yet.

Urban Legend (1998)
Question: How can Natalie and Michelle get only probation for causing someone's death?
Answer: They would have been charged with vehicular manslaughter, not even a felony in some jurisdictions. If it was a first offense and/or they lied about what happened, probation wouldn't be off the mark.

Wonder Woman (1976)
Question: Why did they have three actresses playing Hippolyta? Scheduling conflicts with each one?
Answer: The first actress, Cloris Leachman appeared in the TV movie which ended up being the pilot for the series. At the time, Leachman was already starring in her own TV series "Phyllis" (a spin off her role in "The Mary Tyler Moore Show"). This was actually the 2nd TV movie meant to be a pilot and the first one wasn't picked up. It's unlikely she thought the show would be picked up. After season 1, in which Carolyn Jones played the role, ABC was slow to make a decision to pick up the series for season 2 and CBS picked up the series. When CBS picked up the series, they changed the time setting of the show and replaced all the actors, with the exception of Carter and Waggoner (with Waggoner playing a different role technically), resulting in Beatrice Straight being cast.
Answer: It is typical to recast non-regular cast members in a TV series, usually because they are no longer available or another actor was better suited for the part. Non-regular actors move on to other acting jobs during a series' run. Cloris Leachman, Carolyn Jones, and Beatrice Straight, who played Hippolyta, were well-known character actresses who were billed as "Guest Stars." Cloris Leachman was only in the show's pilot episode and was on the Mary Tyler Moore Show. Carolyn Jones played Hippolyta during Season 2, then was cast in the TV mini-series "Roots." Beatrice Straight played Hippolyta in the final season.

Halloween (1978)
Question: If Tommy and Lindsey both had babysitters why couldn't they go trick or treating?
Answer: Tommy was in an astronaut costume so it kind of implies he went trick or treating earlier.
My friends and I dressed up a lot to get into the spirit of Halloween and not go trick or treating so doesn't really imply anything.
Answer: Who said they weren't allowed to go trick or treating? They both seemed more interested in the movies than anything else.
