The Simpsons

Lisa the Simpson - S9-E17

Continuity mistake: When Lisa comes down the stairs prior to watching "When Buildings Collapse", the TV screen is near enough in the corner of the living room and can be seen from the stairs. When Lisa enters the living room, the TV has moved further into the room. Subsequent shots of the TV move it so far into the room that it would not have been possible to see it from the stairs at all in the first place.

The Old Man and the Lisa - S8-E21

Continuity mistake: When Lisa spots a fish trapped in a can holder on the beach, she takes the fish out of the holder and drops it on the ground. But when Lisa throws the fish into the sea, there is no sign of the can holder.

The Canine Mutiny - S8-E20

Continuity mistake: The doormat at the Blind Man's house is initially coloured blue, but when Bart steps on the squeaky toy, look at the mat and you can see there is now a dark blue border around it.

Tree House of Horror X - S11-E4

[The Simpsons are driving down a road as fast as possible.]
Homer: Dear God, it's Homer. If you really love me you'll save my life now.
[The gas needle immediately drops to empty and the car stops.]
Homer: D'oh.
