Getting Davy Jones - S3-E12

Audio problem: When Greg and Peter were in the family room helping Marcia write a letter to Davy Jones, Peter suggests telling him that he won a $10 million sweepstake. Then as they walk into the kitchen, you hear Greg saying "A $10 million sweepstake" and Peter says "$20 million?" It is clear that he wasn't really talking, because the sound of his voice is very distant, although they were only in the next room.

Sorry, Right Number - S1-E9

Other mistake: When Mike is talking to Mr. Crawford and the operator asks him to deposit another 10 cents, Mr. Crawford said, 'Did I hear an operator ask for 10 cents?' Only Mike would have heard that recording, not Mr. Crawford (he didn't have the pay phone).

Juliet is the Sun - S3-E7

Revealing mistake: When Carol goes to the dress rehearsal, she is wearing one outfit when she is talking to Mrs. Goodwyn, but then when she goes upstairs to the girl's bedroom and talks to Marcia, she is wearing a totally different outfit.

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: Carol was talking with Ms. Goodwin during school hours, and when talking with Marcia about it in the bedroom, it was presumably evening. It's possible Carol may have taken a shower in between that time frame offscreen, thus changing her clothes.

Bobby Brady: Mom always says not to play ball in the house.

54-40 and Fight - S1-E15

Question: Would someone please explain to me why Marcia did not just simply remove her dangly bracelet that endangered the girls standing in the house of cards competition after Carol said "Oh Marcia, Marcia, your bracelet"? It would have made it less stressful on her not to mention her team, and she wouldn't have had to restrain it with her other hand.

Answer: The dangling bracelet was used for dramatic purposes - to keep the audience on edge.

Answer: There were several episodes throughout the run of the show where Marcia was infatuated with a guy she went to school with. This bracelet could have been a gift from her then-boyfriend; as such, she would not want to take it off, as a sign of loyalty. A stupid thing to do, of course, but it's not a mistake for a character simply to be dumb.
