Space Pilot 3000 - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: At the Cryogenic facility, right where Fry shouts "Pizza delivery for..." the desk is positioned almost parallel to the window, but when Fry sits down at the desk, its positioned perpendicular to the window. And Fry can't have moved the desk because in both shots the freezing chamber is placed behind it so he would have had to move that as well. (00:01:20)

My Three Suns - S1-E7

Other mistake: A few of the liquid people are shown wearing clothes; while you can usually see through the people to the walls, etc, behind them, you can't see the clothing through them. (00:11:10)

Xofer

I, Roommate - S1-E3

Other mistake: When the crew are leaving Fry's new apartment, Amy slips on the banana skin again and falls over, and for some reason Fry tries to shut the door without her leaving. Maybe it was easier than drawing her getting up, but still worth a look. (00:15:30)

Continuity mistake: When Dr. Zoidberg walks out of the bathroom, he zips up his shirt, and the zipper is just visible above his buttoned up jacket.After that, it's not seen in this episode or ever again. (00:01:45)

Episode Two: The Series Has Landed - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: When the spaceman is delivering the 'Planet Express' package, the colour of the rocket on the box changes from black to green. The same thing happens to the spaceman when he's picked up by the large bird - the logo on his backpack changes colour. (00:00:30)

I, Roommate - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When the team are gathered round the table at the beginning of the episode, note their positions when the video screen is turned on. When they see Fry drying his hair, Leela and Bender have each moved up a chair, and Zoidberg has also moved, and seems to have taken half of his previous chair with him. (00:01:20)

My Three Suns - S1-E7

Plot hole: Whenever Leela arrives and everyone starts beating up Fry to make him cry out the emperor, it shows Dr. Zoidberg pinching his leg and later, sitting next to the wall, tired out with Bender and Amy. However, if he's there, then what is keeping the Trisolians from coming through the hole in the door that Zoidberg was plugging with his claw? (00:19:40)

Futurama mistake picture

I, Roommate - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When Fry is watching "All My Circuits" for the first time, it shows Calculon screwing a golden nut onto the index finger of a fembot's right hand. In the very next shot, the bolt is on the middle finger of her hand. (00:03:15)

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)

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)

Daz

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)

Bender: Bite my shiny metal ass!

Answer: The initial number is 0101100101 = 357. When reflected in a mirror, however, it reads 1010011010 = 666 (the number of the Beast). It is a parody of The Shining, where the words Red Rum are seen as the word murder in the mirror.
