Up Your Alley - S1-E13

Visible crew/equipment: When Tim says "ten pins down, all fall down, I won, I won" at the end when he thinks he has beat Jill at bowling, look just to the right of the chandelier above Pete (person standing to the right of Jill) to see a boom mic briefly drop into view.

Advise And Repent - S5-E5

Continuity mistake: When Tim stumbles back from the force of the power compactor, he steps in the wet cement behind him. When Al tries to catch his mother's pet turtle before it lands in the wet cement, the spot in the cement where Tim stepped, has refilled itself. (00:15:25)

Talk To Me - S4-E20

Continuity mistake: When Jill drops the ball down the vent, there are 4 more balls in the stand. When she drops the second ball, there are only 2 balls in the stand, not 3.

The Long And Winding Road (3) - S8-E27

Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode, when Tim and Jill are cleaning up from the wedding, you can see where the fence was. There is a seam where the two grass carpets meet up, showing obviously artificial grass since the holes are so neat and thin and perfect, with no displaced dirt. You can even see that it is laid down in strips on Wilson's side, with multiple seams running towards the house.

Young At Heart - S8-E17

Revealing mistake: When Tim gives Jill the framed photo of the two of them on their way to the Doobie Brothers concert, you can tell Tim has just been photoshopped into an existing picture of Patricia Richardson, as he is slightly out of focus despite the fact that they are standing next to each other. (00:13:24)

Jill's Surprise Party - S5-E4

Revealing mistake: At the end of the episode before Tim opens the front door for Julie Zwicky, you can see the actress' silhouette in the window pane for several moments before she rings the doorbell, showing her to be waiting for her cue.

What a Drag - S7-E16

Other mistake: When Tim and Jill are staking out in Wilson's backyard to see which of their sons hid the marijuana, Jill mentions that it's only 10° outside. However, their breath is never visible throughout the scene.

Groin Pulls - S2-E4

A House Divided - S4-E18

Other mistake: Heidi turns off the gas, saying that the shutoff valve has to be moved perpendicular to the pipe to shut off the gas, which is correct. But Heidi actually moves it parallel to the pipe, which turns on the gas.

Let's Did Lunch - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: When Tim and Dave are outside talking about Dave seeing another woman, Tim's Binford sweatshirt changes from clean to having some type of staining on the lettering through out several cuts. It's mainly visible on the B, R and D on Tim's sweatshirt when it switches from clean to stained or dirty.

Al: Say, do you think they call it a nail gun because it shoots nails?
