Santa's Little Helpers - S6-E11

Continuity mistake: When Shawn and Angela are talking in the student union building, Shawn's scarf is draped around his neck in an asymmetrical fashion, with the left side shorter than the right. When they sit down on the couch, he pulls the two sides to a symmetrical length. Throughout the rest of the time Shawn remains seated on the couch, the two sides alternate between being symmetrical and asymmetrical. (00:15:20 - 00:16:47)

We'll Have A Good Time Then - S6-E13

Continuity mistake: The picture Rachel takes of Shawn, Jack and Chet is not consistent with the framed picture Jack receives. When Rachel takes the picture, Shawn's necklace is sticking out of his shirt collar slightly and positioned to the right and he has a lock of hair draped over his forehead on the left side of his face. In the framed picture, his necklace is protruding from his collar more prominently and positioned to the left, he has no lock of hair over his forehead, and his left hand can suddenly be seen on Chet's left shoulder. Additionally, the framed picture shows Chet with his head slightly tilted back and showing his teeth as he smiles, but when the picture was taken, his head was level and he only had a slight grin with no teeth showing. (00:04:49 - 00:21:10)

Getting Hitched - S6-E14

Continuity mistake: In every other episode where Shawn's trailer is shown, next to the kitchen there was always sort of a hallway leading to bedrooms/bathrooms. When Shawn and Jack are in the trailer in this episode, there is one big wall.

Suggested correction: It's possible that the doorway in question has a door that when closed resembles a section of the wall. You can even see a thick gap in the panel of the wood behind the left side of the microwave to suggest so.

Road Trip - S6-E15

Character mistake: When Sarah the waitress is filling up Cory and Shawn's coffee cups, she puts hardly any coffee in them, with Cory's barely being a couple of drips. A waitress that works on tips wouldn't be so lackadaisical about filling a customer's coffee cup. Cory and Shawn just sat down as well, so it's not like she was just topping them off. (00:02:58)

Road Trip - S6-E15

Audio problem: When the waitresses are performing their song, you can tell they are lip syncing to a recording even though they are supposed to be giving a live performance. The vocals have a noticeable amount of reverb and are mixed evenly with the instrumental track despite the fact they aren't even using microphones. (00:06:49 - 00:09:00)

My Baby Valentine - S6-E16

Visible crew/equipment: After Amy's C-section Alan walks into the waiting area, and just as his kids gather around him in the wide shot the boom mic dips into view at the top, center of the screen between Alan and the plant (viewed on iPad screen). (00:20:10)

Super Grover

My Baby Valentine - S6-E16

Continuity mistake: Just after Cory talks about being a "baby shower machine", Morgan walks past him. There's then a quick shot of Alan and then we see Cory again, and again Morgan walks past him. It's not the same shot from two different angles, as Cory is acting differently each time.

My Baby Valentine - S6-E16

Other mistake: Early in the episode, Amy mentions that she is 7 1/2 months pregnant. This episode takes place around Valentine's Day, which means she would have become pregnant at either the end of June or the beginning of July. However, she revealed she was pregnant around the time Cory, Shawn and Topanga had their senior prom, which would have been around the end of May or beginning of June at the latest, prior to their high school Graduation. So she should be around 8 1/2 months pregnant at the least.

Resurrection - S6-E17

Continuity mistake: After Topanga draws a lipstick heart around her face and Shawn says "Use a mirror, babe," a closeup is shown of Topanga smiling at Shawn and you can see Cory has lipstick on his forehead before Topanga has drawn it on him. (00:20:30)

For Love and Apartments - S7-E2

Other mistake: When Cory is trying to get Topanga's parents to reconcile, Topanga's mother mentions to her ex-husband about the "beautiful child they've made." Given that she says "child" in the singular, this can only refer to Topanga. However, the season 1 episode She Loves Me, She Loves Me Not established that Topanga had an older sister named Nebula. So the mistake is that either the show is acting like a character that was firmly established never existed, or Topanga's mother doesn't realise she has at least two children. (00:15:32)

For Love and Apartments - S7-E2

Character mistake: When Shawn is scolding Topanga for getting angry with Cory for travelling to Pittsburgh to try to get her parents back together, he mentions that he travelled a hundred miles to do so. Philadelphia is roughly 300 miles from Pittsburgh. Travelling only 100 miles westward from Philadelphia would barely get them past Hershey. (00:17:53)

No Such Thing as a Sure Thing - S7-E4

Revealing mistake: When the family is eating dinner, throughout the scene you can see Jack dabbing his fork into his mashed potatoes and raising the fork to his mouth with little to no potatoes on it in order to give the illusion that he is eating. (00:03:57 - 00:05:05)

What I Meant To Say - S3-E3

Mr. Williams: I'm here to teach you to find the truth in the media. Because there is a difference between what they say, and what is real.
Mr. Turner: That was very good. Watch this: Hunter, what did he just say?
Shawn: Something about Israel.

Janitor Dad - S4-E6

Question: When Chet and Verna are arguing about Chet getting a job, visible in the background is a painting of what I believe is an oak tree on a yellow background. Does anybody know the name and/or artist of this painting? My Grandparents used have a painting similar to it (if not the same one) and it also looks very similar to (and possibly the inspiration for) the cover art for the debut album of the band Days of the New.

Answer: I learned the answer to this one today. It is "Tree of Life" by Garé Barks.
