Miles to Go - S6-E15
Continuity mistake: In this episode Rose's boyfriend Miles is revealed to be in the witness protection program and has not had any contact with people from his past including family. However, in season 5, episode 15 his daughter visited and didn't approve of Rose.
There Goes the Bride (1) - S6-E16
Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, Rose says that Miles is in Europe with some students. The episode immediately before this one, however, revealed Miles being put back into a witness protection program, and leaving Rose.
The Days and Nights of Sophia Petrillo - S4-E2
Continuity mistake: Dorothy mentions that her Grandma, the mother of Sophia, died at 94 when Dorothy was 6. However, in the season 3 finale, there was an entire scene showing Sophia's mother visiting Sophia and Salvadore on Mother's Day, accompanied by young but certainly adult Dorothy.
And Then There Was One - S2-E16
Other mistake: When the father arrives to pick up baby Emily he states his wife was having triplets the night before. Yet baby Emily in the stroller is under 6 months old. How is her mom having triplets already?
Character mistake: The number of years that Sal has been dead and the number of years that he and Sophia were married, constantly changes. In Season 3 Episode 5, Sophia says that she and Sal were married for 52 years. In other episodes, she says he's been dead anywhere from 22-30 years. If that's the case, given that Sophia is 80 at the start of the show, Sal would have died when she was about 50. Meaning that they would have had to be married since birth to be married over 50 years.
Other mistake: Dorothy said she's never had a mink, but her mink stole was stolen in the Break-In episode. It was also in the pilot episode when Blanch asked Dorthy if she could borrow her mink stole.
Continuity mistake: In this episode, Dorothy's son, Michael, is said to be thirty years old. When he married his wife in the season 3 episode "Mixed Blessings", he was said to be 23.
Old Friends - S3-E1
Other mistake: Blanche asks Daisy to go to Rose's room to get the things she set out for the rummage sale. Daisy goes into the first room on the right and gets the items, including Rose's teddy bear. Blanche gives it to her for helping out. Rose comes home, goes to her room and comes back asking where her bear is. Problem is, Rose's room is at the end of the hall on the left.
Revealing mistake: When Mr Ha Ha is talking to Dorothy, the little boy is in the background waiting for his cue to smash the cake in Mr Ha Ha's face.
Other mistake: In the 1954 flashback scene, it is Dorothy's 10-year anniversary, so she got married in 1944. In another episode, Dorothy said Stan impregnated her in the back seat of a car by saying he's going to the Korean War, which began in 1950. Also, viewers know that Dorothy went to college. A pregnant newlywed in 1944 with a husband off to war would not have gone to college but stayed home awaiting the birth of her child. And in 1945, after the war, she would have been a housewife, not a college student.
Suggested correction: First off, I don't remember the show every showing or saying Stan did serve in the military. Dorothy said the only reason she went out with him was because he claimed he was being shipped off to Korea and would probably die. Stan was shown not to be faithful and probably not very trustworthy. But there's no reason an intelligent woman with a child could go to college even if her husband was in the military.
Continuity mistake: When the women are sitting at the table outside, Lily insists on pouring everyone's lemonade. She is shown pouring the first 2 cups, then in the very next shot the remaining empty cups are gone from the tray and everyone has their cup of lemonade.
Continuity mistake: Throughout the show, Rose implies through numerous stories that everyone in St. Olaf, explicitly including close family members, is just as dumb and weird as Rose herself. However, most of Rose's relatives we meet are perfectly normal people, including her adoptive mother, both of her daughters that we get to see, her biological father and her blind sister. During a dream sequence, her adoptive father appears and he doesn't seem to be unintelligent either, giving her good advice. Only her cousin Sven fits her description by being arguably even dumber than her.
Whose Face is This, Anyway? - S2-E20
Other mistake: In Season 2 Episode 8: Vacation, Dorothy let it slip that Rose had a nose job and never mentioned her own plastic surgery. However, here Rose says that she hates plastic surgery and Dorothy admits that she got her eyes done. (00:14:35 - 00:15:04)
Continuity mistake: At Big Daddy's (Blanche's father) funeral/passing, Blanche shows Dorothy around her childhood home but it was revealed in season 1 episode 24 that Big Daddy had sold the property to pay for a music tour and to escape the constant reminder of his late wife, the house was named Twin oaks.
Continuity mistake: When the girls are singing to the baby, the blankets keep disappearing and reappearing on the baby carriage.
Other mistake: When Rose relates the story of her birth, she says that Ingrid died in childbirth, and her baby was left at the orphanage in a basket. Brother Martin didn't know of the child's existence until after she was adopted. So who put the baby in a basket, and why? If a woman died in childbirth at the hospital, with the baby's father unknown, the orphanage would have taken custody directly. Babies are abandoned in baskets by living parents.
Guess Who's Coming to the Wedding? - S1-E2
Visible crew/equipment: When Dorothy and Stanley are talking outside, the camera rolls into frame on the left-hand side. (00:22:48)
Other mistake: Dorothy gets pregnant in high school with Michael. Dorothy plays a woman in her 50s. He was in his Early 20s when the show started. She wouldn't have been in high school age 30.
Brother, Can You Spare That Jacket? - S4-E8
Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode, the girls regroup after looking for the winning scratch-off ticket and Blanche says she found it. At that moment, she is not holding her purse, however in the very next shot, after the priest enters the room, she's suddenly holding her purse again without the girls ever having moved from their spots.
Character mistake: Throughout much of the show, except for a few boyfriends Dorothy has had difficulties finding men to go out with her. Much of the show's humor is based around Dorothy looking unattractive and having no dates, and Sophia often desperately tried to arrange a rendezvous for her daughter. Nevertheless, in this episode, Sophia had no problem at all to find a whole bunch of men that are more than willing to go out with her, and according to the suggestive gestures Dorothy mentions, some of them apparently had a strong sexual interest in her after having seen her. They even offered their services to a cheaper price just to go out with her. Why is it so easy for Sophia to find that many men that eager to meet her daughter all of a sudden?
Suggested correction: In the context of the story, perhaps he was simply waiting for the conversation between Dorothy and Mr Ha Ha to end before he addressed anyone. Some people do that.

A correction for this was already attempted. In certain instances, it's obvious that an actor (especially a child actor) is waiting for a cue, mouthing the lines, or suppose to be off-camera. Sometimes their actions can be explained as normal for the given scene, but evidence for their actions need to be based on viewing the scene, not just guessing. Bobby is making a movement to get up, and starts to lean forward waiting for his cue because he's not even looking at Dorothy and Mr. Ha Ha. And he stands up while Dorothy is talking, so he's not waiting for their conversation to end.

Considering that I was watching this scene when I replied, I stand by it. Mr Ha Ha was acting arrogantly towards Dorothy and the kid was close enough to overhear the conversation. Proof is when he gets up as Dorothy is talking, because that was the moment she said she couldn't do it. As soon as she said it, that's when he committed himself to do it because since Mr Ha Ha mentioned a lawyer to Dorothy he'd never have the nerve to threaten a child, and the kid knew it.
