From Method to Madness - S3-E18

Continuity mistake: When we first see the sign outside the Quahog institute of performing arts, it has a cartoon take on the comedy and tragedy masks in the corners. In the left hand corner is a black mask with big ears and a smile and on the right is a white mask with a frown. Later on, the black mask has the frown and the white mask has the big ears and smile and the 3rd time you see the sign it has changed back again.

To Live and Die in Dixie - S3-E12

Continuity mistake: When Peter and Brian are escaping from the locals in their car, they go over a ridge. They freeze in midair and a voice says "those Griffin boys..." and the screen goes black. Then, in the next shot, the whole landscape is different. Even though the angle of the shot is different, that doesn't account for the disappearance of Chris and Sam or the colour-change of the sky. (00:14:40)

Stewie, Chris & Brian's Excellent Adventure - S13-E7

Plot hole: When it is revealed that Chris's teacher was never born, Teacher Doug introduces himself, despite the fact that if Chris's teacher was never born, Doug would already have been teacher for the entire year, and therefore all of the students should know him and he would not have to introduce himself.

Yug Ylimaf - S11-E4

Deliberate mistake: The time machine reverting causes everything in life to go backwards. However, although the characters' actions are reversed, their dialogue is always spoken forwards and not backwards. (00:08:00)

Casual Person

The Juice Is Loose - S7-E9

Continuity mistake: After Conway Twitty finishes his song, the scene cuts back to Perter and his family at the kitchen table. Take notice that Lois is sitting next to the back door, and Brian is sitting next to the kitchen sink and window. Keep an eye on that kitchen sink, window and door, because it will be replaced by a yellow wall with the telephone now being closer to Lois. Later as Lois, Brian and Peter are discussing OJ Simpson, the sink, widow and door return.

RLN

Chitty Chitty Death Bang - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When Stewie comes in when the Griffin family is talking about Cheesy Charlies, his head and body are way out of proportion. He is right next to the rug where the family is sitting, yet he is about twice his usual size. (00:01:50)

If I'm Dyin' I'm Lyin' - S2-E9

Continuity mistake: When Peter, Anne Frank, and a group of people (presumably Anne Frank's family) are hiding from the Nazis, Anne Frank and her family look over to discover Peter munching crisps. In the next shot, Anne Frank's family look somewhat different, in fact they are a different group of people entirely. (00:06:40)

The King Is Dead - S2-E7

Other mistake: In the scene where Einstein is stealing Smith's theory, when Einstein pulls the metal bars down, they should land on Smith's head, but Smith inexplicably moves forward and the bars land on his back.

Stuck Together, Torn Apart - S3-E19

Continuity mistake: When Peter goes to see his ex-girlfriend, she says she never washed her hand and takes off her right glove to show a black hand. It is like this right up until Peter leaves. She then turns around and the hands have switched colours. (00:10:00)

Xofer

Lois: Hello?
Peter: I can't take the trash out today, I'm working late at the office.
Lois: The caller ID says you're calling from the kitchen. In fact I can see you.
Peter: [Edging sideways.] OK, can you see me now?
Lois: No.
Peter: Now I am at the office.

Brian Sings & Swings - S4-E19

Question: In this episode Meg pretends to be a lesbian, when she calls herself a 'mega lesbian' it shows four other 'mega lesbians' singing something on deep voices. What song are they singing? Is it a real song?

strikeand

Chosen answer: It's a real song called "Elvira". Originally by Dallas Fraizer in '66, however, this version seems to be the Oak Ridge Boys cover version. However, the mega lesbians skip the verse and just sing the chorus after the opening line.
