Fear of a Bot Planet - S1-E5

Other mistake: When the robots are building a Tetris wall, there is a section on the left made up of two red 'L' bricks. However, the upright L block is not the same as the other red blocks, because it is flipped laterally. (00:09:05)

Anthology of Interest 2 - S4-E3

Continuity mistake: When the Professor shows that the woo-woo sound was air escaping from human-Bender's rolls of fat, there are small grey bits of debris on the wooden floor of the stage all around him. When the crowd gathers around Bender – seen from above - they are gone.

I Second That Emotion - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: When talking about El Chupakneebra with the Sewer People, the characters are standing in front of a building with a blue sign reading "Cleaners". But in the shot where Leela explains how Nibbler loves fresh crocodile, the writing on the sign changes to a completely different, much narrower, style.

My Three Suns - S1-E7

Revealing mistake: When someone suggests crying as a way to get the emperor out of Fry's body, he says 'that's a great idea', the emperor's face stays still on Fry's stomach, instead of moving in sync with Fry's body. (00:15:50)

Anthology of Interest 2 - S4-E3

Continuity mistake: There is a weird case of musical tables going on during the Professor's Nobel Prize presentation. When Professor Wernstrom stands and says 'He needs medical attention.' he is sharing a table with an African-American man (who drops his pipe) and a younger man in a green shirt. On the table is an empty retort, an empty glass, one knife and two plates with half eaten meals on them. When he stands and tells the Professor he isn't going to get the Nobel Prize there are three plates with complete meals, a full retort and a full glass and two sets of cutlery. The African-American man has regained his pipe and is at a different table, and a white, bald man has joined them.

My Three Suns - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: When Fry and Leela are standing in the corridor with the portraits of the past Emperors, there are numerous errors. Including the picture of Fry vanishing, as well as blank frames appearing and figures facing the wrong direction. (00:11:50)

The Honking - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: When the robot at the start is dying, the doctor opens a panel to see his "heart beat." After a couple of other shots we see the panel again and this time it's closed without anyone touching it. It's also important not to confuse the doctor closing the robots eyes with this panel. (00:00:35)

More trivia for Futurama

Answer: Yes Leela knew from early on that Fry had feelings for her. They were pretending to be a couple in 'A Flight to Remember' from season 1 and Fry tried to get on dates with Leela ever since. She just didn't show signs of the feelings maybe being mutual before some of the later episodes.
