A Long Walk To Pittsburgh (1) - S4-E16

Character mistake: After learning that Topanga will be moving to Pittsburgh, Cory tries to rationalize their desire to be together for the rest of their lives despite still being so young by comparing their relationship to that of Romeo and Juliet, thinking they turned out OK. Shortly thereafter, he is shown reading the book in his backyard and explains the situation to Mr. Feeny, who advises him to skip to the end to find out what happens to their relationship, much to Cory's dismay. The problem is that Cory already learned the fate of Romeo and Juliet in Mr. Feeny's class in the first episode of the series. He was even dismissive over the idea of a man killing himself over a woman.

Chick Like Me - S4-E15

Show generally

Continuity mistake: Establishing shots of the Matthews' house show the doorknob on the exterior of their front door to be on the left-hand side, but shots from inside the house show it to be on the right-hand side.

B & B's B'n B - S4-E13

Continuity mistake: When Mr. Timmer picks up the mini vase, just before Cory tells him to put it down, you can see he is the only one touching it. When the shot changes, Mr. Timmer and his wife are both holding onto it. Cory also instantly has his left arm raised and index finger pointed at the Timmers.

An Affair to Forget - S4-E11

Continuity mistake: When Eric is performing his one-man show, he states in the intro that he was born on June 24, 1978. However, in the season 1 episode "It's a Wonderful Night," Eric fails his test to get his driver's license. That episode takes place during the middle of the school year, but if Eric was born in late June, he would have had to wait until after, or at the least the very end of the school year to try and get his license, as the minimum age in Pennsylvania for obtaining a driver's license is sixteen.

Dangerous Secret - S4-E8

Other mistake: When Cory throws the CD out of his bedroom window, if you listen closely, you can hear the CD land in a soft terrain. However, the next day at school, Mr. Feeny pulls the CD out of his suit pocket and says that it sailed through his living room window and landed on his walnut credenza. If the CD managed to make all the way into Feeny's house, then the sound of it landing would not be audible.

Janitor Dad - S4-E6

Deliberate mistake: Chet comes home from his first day as school janitor brandishing a paycheck, which impresses his wife and in turn changes Shawn's mind about Chet working at the school. Being that it was Chet's first day on the job, there's no way he would already have received a paycheck. Even if it was payday, his employment would have begun on the first day of the next pay period.

Suggested correction: It's possible it was pay for training or orientation days that were before his official start date.

That's a good point.

You Can Go Home Again - S4-E1

Factual error: In this episode, Eric and Cory stop in Pottstown, Pennsylvania on their way back to Philadelphia. Cory protests, reasoning that stopping there is pointless because they are only three hours from home. Pottstown is roughly 40 miles from Philadelphia. It certainly wouldn't take three hours to get to one location from the other under normal driving conditions.

Truth and Consequences - S3-E7

Plot hole: In this episode, it is discovered through a scientific study that Eric does not dream, and in fact doesn't even register brain activity while he is sleeping. However, the season 2 episode "Wrong Side of the Tracks" features a subplot where Eric listens to a motivational tape while he sleeps so he can learn to ice skate, and he dreams of Nancy Kerrigan giving him a lesson.

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.

Brave New World (2) - S7-E23

Trivia: In the episode when Cory and Topanga are walking through the marriage dorms for the first time, a little boy walks through the hall and says "I see dead people". And in the very last episode the same boy plays Cory's little brother, Joshy.

Show generally

Question: Topanga said in one episode that she has a weird middle name, did she ever say what it is?

Answer: Topanga's middle name is never specified. Considering her sister's name is Nebula Stop-the-war Lawrence, Topanga's is probably something equally unusual.
