Double Date - S1-E12

Factual error: Lane wants Rory to talk to Dean about setting up Lane with his friend Todd. While asking Rory to do this, Lane asks for the date to be planned for the following Sunday, after church; however, Lane is Seventh-day Adventist and they believe the Sabbath is Saturday and therefore attend church on Saturday, not Sunday.

Suggested correction: Many Seventh-Day Adventist churches do actually hold church on Sunday.

Double Date - S1-E12

Other mistake: When Rory and Lane get caught at the movies, Lorelai said she will not lie to Mrs. Kim because she has to respect that Mrs. Kim doesn't want Lane to do something. In reality, Lane is allowed to do things Mrs. Kim would not approve of all the time i.e. Listening to ungodly music, eating pizza, wearing different clothes.

Concert Interruptus - S1-E13

Visible crew/equipment: While Rory has the girls over to work on the debate, when Lorelai and Rory walk into the living room with the Pop-Tarts, just as Lorelai tells them about going to the Bangles concert we can see filming equipment at the left side of the screen. (00:23:45)

That Damn Donna Reed - S1-E14

Visible crew/equipment: When Lorelai takes the ice bucket into the kitchen trying to evade Emily's questions about Luke, just as Emily tells her that Luke is always around when Lorelai's in trouble, on the glass cabinet there's a visible reflection of the boom operator moving around, while holding the boom.

That Damn Donna Reed - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: When Lorelai and Luke are in Luke's Diner to choose the color for the walls, Luke turns around the 'closed'-sign on the door. In this shot the venetian blind at the door is quite messed-up; partly closed, partly opened. In the following shot, where all the people are standing outside Luke's Diner looking through the windows, the venetian blind is orderly and completely opened.

That Damn Donna Reed - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: In the first scene when Dean brings pizza and they are discussing about Donna Reed, in one shot Lorelai is opening the pizza box and she and Rory take a piece and start eating while they are talking. In the following shot, the piece of pizza in Lorelai's hand is gone and Rory takes a piece from the box - you can see that the pizza is complete again.

Pilot - S1-E1

Rory: You sound happy.
Lorelai: I am, kid.
Rory: Did you do something slutty?
Lorelai: I'm not that happy.

Chosen answer: Lorelai and Christopher get married impulsively in Paris but they get divorced shortly after returning home. I don't know the exact number of days or weeks but they definitely weren't married for more than a couple of months.
