FOX-y Lady - S7-E10
Continuity mistake: As Peter is selling his cartoon idea to Mr. Chernin at Fox, you can see a small globe behind him. After the cartoon is shown, and the shot returns to Peter and Mr. Chernin, you will notice that the globe turns into an Emmy award.
FOX-y Lady - S7-E10
Continuity mistake: When Fred Savage takes off his Rush Limbaugh costume, he throws the clothing on the floor. Lois and Brian jump through the window to confront him, and the clothes are in new positions on the floor.
Not All Dogs Go to Heaven - S7-E11
Continuity mistake: In the part where Meg is asking Brian about God, and Brian answers he is an atheist, the camera pans out quickly, and we see an entrance to the kitchen with an air vent above it. Eventually the family discussion with Brian continues, and you see that the air vent is now gone.
Not All Dogs Go to Heaven - S7-E11
Continuity mistake: While Meg is at the kitchen table telling the family about her new life with God, you will notice that Brian is sitting to the right of her. As she starts to ask that everyone hold hands, take notice that Brian is not in that chair and that Brian's plate and utensils are moved closer to Meg. As the shot pans out, Brian is back in that chair.
Factual error: Brian is sitting on the couch smoking weed. Joe knocks on the door and Brian just waves the smoke from the air. Joe is there to give Brian a drug test and says nothing about smelling weed in the air. There's no possible way he didn't smell it! You can't just wave your hand and get rid of the smell.
Factual error: In the park, Stewie and Brian are playing the "water pipes" like a xylophone. Trouble is, in order to get the tones they were playing, the glasses should have had different levels of water in them. If you look closely, all the glasses have the same level of water.
Continuity mistake: Peter gets beat up and thrown in to a black limousine by hired thugs of Mr. Pewterschmidt. While in the car, notice that as Peter starts talking to Mr. Pewterschmidt that there is no cart of Diet Rites next to him. Next shot there is. Then the cart disappears as Mr. Pewterschmidt tells Peter what is on his mind.
Stew-Roids - S7-E13
Continuity mistake: When Lois is talking to Meg on her bed she gets up and throws a book and a bottle of pills on the bed that came out of nowhere. The nightstand is out of view but if you look at the earlier scene there's nothing on the stand except a clock and a lamp.
Three Kings - S7-E15
Factual error: Stewie shoots Joe with a double barrel gun. He shoots at him 3 times without reloading. (00:12:50)
Road to the Multiverse - S8-E1
Other mistake: In every universe - except for the double-headed universe - Brian and Stewie travel to, they (seem to) replace the version of themselves that universe already has of them, but then in the Dog universe they have a separate version of themselves that they continuously interact with.
Road to the Multiverse - S8-E1
Continuity mistake: At the fair, Stewie's genetically perfect pig has a red collar. But when we see them in Stewie's room, the pig's collar is black.
Brian's Got a Brand New Bag - S8-E4
Continuity mistake: Towards the end of the episode, Brian walks in with Rita's soup. Notice there are no pill bottles on her nightstand. As soon as he sits the soup down, 3 bottles appear out of nowhere. Then, after Brian gives her the pills, the bottles disappear again. (00:03:02 - 00:03:28)
Brian's Got a Brand New Bag - S8-E4
Continuity mistake: Towards the end of the episode, we see Rita's bedroom door opens in. When Brian returns from the store, there's no door at all. When he leaves, the door opens out because he slams it shut.
Brian's Got a Brand New Bag - S8-E4
Continuity mistake: When Stewie goes down the stairs in his bed, when he hits the front door, the door opens outwards outside. It always opens towards the inside. Plus in this episode, the door is brown when he rolls outside. Next scene and the other times in the show it's a red door.
Brian's Got a Brand New Bag - S8-E4
Continuity mistake: When Brian and Rita go into the house, the front door opens inward, as usual. A couple minutes later, the door opens outward when Stewie's crib hits it.
Continuity mistake: Chris puts a video recorder in his room to try to capture the angry monkey in his closet to show Peter and Lois. He views the tape the next day and sees Peter and Quagmire enter his room. Quagmire punches Chris in the eye and bruises, it but when we see Chris the very next day, there's no black eye.
Character mistake: Lois says to Quagmire, if you have any questions we'll be right across the street. They live next door obviously, not across the street.
Factual error: You cannot get paternity test results back in one day. It takes 3 to 5 days or even weeks depending on the lab.
Continuity mistake: Peter is sitting on the couch talking on the radio. You see the phone sitting on a table beside the couch. But when Peter picks up the phone to call Quagmire, the phone is right beside him, without him ever moving it from the table.
Jerome Is the New Black - S8-E7
Continuity mistake: When Brian and Quagmire are eating at the steak house, Quagmire is seen cutting and eating his steak. When he gets up from the table, the steak is whole.
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.
