Quotes

Fry: It's just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus. All year long, the grasshopper kept burying acorns for the winter, while the octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV. But then the winter came, and the grasshopper died, and the octopus ate all his acorns. And also he got a racecar. Is any of this getting through to you?

Season: Whole show  1  2  3  4  5  All

The Route of All Evil

Mistake Continuity: People (even the dogs) flying through the asteroid belt wear space helmets, but on the asteroids themselves, they don't.

Three Hundred Big Boys

Mistake Continuity: Right before Leela dives into the whale tank, she drops her snorkel and mask, but when the shot pulls back, they've completely disappeared.

Bend Her

Mistake Continuity: When Bender is a "female" and is putting stuff in his locker, in one angle you can see a yellow item next to his pink handbag. Then in the wider angle, this item is gray.

Kif Gets Knocked Up a Notch

Mistake Continuity: Zoidberg wasn't in the machine to begin with, yet he appeared later. When it spins you see the whole inside of the machine - he's definitely not there.

Obsoletely Fabulous

Mistake Continuity: When Bender and the other obsolete robots are watching a snail crawl across the beach, the snail is shown to be in the center of the screen with the robots standing around. Cut to Bender inserting a CD in his mouth, it then goes back to showing the original angle, but the snail has suddenly disappeared, and not enough time has passed for it to have crawled all the way out of the shot.

Jurassic Bark

Mistake Deliberate "mistake": The fossilised dog looks like the dog did when he was young; it should look old and decrepit, as the dog was when he died. (Presumably deliberate, to avoid a spoiler.).

The Route of All Evil

Mistake Continuity: The rotation of the feeding mechanism on the newspaper gun changes. It first spins counter-clockwise when Hermes starts firing, then it is shown spinning clockwise for the shot where Dwight takes over.

Mistake Continuity: The back page that has been ripped off is put in the envelope with the top part showing the right way up, but it was folded so if the ads side of the page was showing, either the middle part or the top part upside down would show.

Jurassic Bark

Mistake Continuity: The lava is close to the machine, until Fry runs to it, then it's a long way away.

Obsoletely Fabulous

Mistake Continuity: The "Cartridge Robot" never takes the "Introduction" tape out of his slot, but in the wider shot it's suddenly vanished.

Crimes of the Hot

Mistake Continuity: When the crew and Bender are sitting on the couch, Bender says, " Oh, oh, oh! get ready for this part!" Note the vent behind him is missing the three lights that have always been on it.

Bender Should Not Be Allowed on TV

Mistake Continuity: When Calculon is bathing in champagne with Monique there is a napkin or something behind her, but when the robot actor breaks down it is nowhere to be seen.

Less Than Hero

Mistake Continuity: When Leela is found on the door step she has a bracelet on her wrist but in the next shot it is gone.

Crimes of the Hot

Mistake Continuity: Bender is shown to be wearing clogs in the scene where he arrives back from Holland after saving a turtle. However, a few seconds later when he's knocked over, the clogs are gone.

The Route of All Evil

Mistake Continuity: The comic books pages become blank when Cubert is ripping off the back page.

Bender Should Not Be Allowed on TV

Mistake Continuity: When Bender is auditioning there is a cup on Calculons table that appears and disappears between shots.

The Farnsworth Paradox

Mistake Continuity: When Fry first takes the tangled Christmas lights out of the fake box, they are all red and blue. However, when the shot cuts outward to get a wider view, many of the lights have turned green.

Mistake Continuity: Just as Hermes A is about to shoot the box into the sun, all the crew (A and B) shoot out into the airlock. However, Hermes B doesn't come out of the box and just appears in the pile. This is confirmed in the commentary.

Mistake Continuity: In the very beginning scene, where Fry and Leela are talking, there is an explosion. When some ceiling falls down there is one big bit and three small bits next to Leela's foot but then a few seconds later there is one big bit and a few small bits all in different places.

A Taste of Freedom

Mistake Continuity: In one of the first shots at the Freedom Day celebration in front of the Lincoln Memorial, we see a banner, with the text "Freedom Day - Express yourself. I hate my job.", suspended between to poles. Some of the banner can also be seen during the first part of Nixon's speech. But when it gets time to lower "Old Freebie" (the flag) the banner has disappeared and the flag is lowered into the position where the banner hung before. And the banner was tied to the two poles so they can't have raised it.
