Mistakes

Gary does a sliding trick with the apple, eats it, and throws it as if Timmy were beside him, yet at the next shot, only Mom and Dad are there, not Timmy. Also, Timmy is farther away from Gary. See more...

Trivia

In the original shorts Timmy's parents were only shown from the neck down. When the shorts were turned into this full-length series, however, we see his parents in full-body form. They are still referred to as "Mr. and Mrs. Turner" and the only facts we are given are that they met at age 10 and that Mr. Turner is 42 years old. See more...

Season: Whole show  1  2  3  4  All

Across whole show

In 'Abra-Catastrophe,' the world is changed to 'monkey-world.' Timmy wakes up, looks up, and sees a poster that says 'Obey,' yet he reads it and says 'Obey the ape overlords.' [This is not a mistake, because Timmy did not look at the poster and specifically say "This poster says 'Obey the ape overlords'" The whole point of the scene is showing Timmy's panic as he realizes that the world was taken over by ape overlords. So he sees a poster of a big angry ape overlord that says "Obey" and so he thinks outloud, and shouts "Obey the ape overlords.?"]
Edit
In the episode where Timmy wishes for silence, Mr. Crocker sees Cosmo and Wanda, but nobody can hear him. The godparents should disappear anyway, because someone other than Timmy saw them. [Cosmo and Wanda can be seen. Like at that super hero convention, they act like normal kids, or when they pretend to be Timmy's parents, they are seen. You can see them, but you cant find out they're godparents. ]
Edit
In the one with Timmy gets popular the kid with the boil says "Hi. This is my boil Bob." This is a tribute to one of the people who work on the show: Bob Boyle. [It isn't likely. For kids cartoons you usually have names beginning with the same letter, e.g Timmy Turner.]
Edit
In the episode "Power Pals", one of Timmy's superhero friends pulls out a small crystal and throws it into the cafeteria where everyone is eating. It lands in a drain near one of the tables at the back of the room and a giant table littered with diamonds called "The Table of Frienditude" appears. The question is, why would there be a drain out in the middle of a cafeteria? [Because it's a cartoon. It was meant to be a minor joke.]
Edit
Timmy looses his baby teeth two times; the first time is in one of the very first episodes, and then again, in the episode where Jorgen proposes to the tooth fairy . [He loses some in one episode and some in the other.]
Edit
In Remy Rides Again, in the opening scene Cosmo and Wanda blast off on the rocket on Timmy's lunch box, but in the next scene they are back. [They're magical fairies, who can appear/disappear at will. How could this possibly be a mistake???]
Edit Corrected by Jason Hoffman
From 2001-2002, Frankie Muniz provided the voice for Chester McBadbat, with Jason Marsden taking up the mantle from 2002-2006. [Reading the show's credits is not trivia.]
Edit Corrected by Grumpy Scot
In the episode where Timmy and Mark, the tentacled-alien from Yugopotamia, fight for Vicky, in what Mark calls "the Digifat", in the first round at the arena, Timmy wishes to be a robot, but turns out to be a pillow-shooter. But it has been specified more than once that Timmy can't wish to help him win a competition. [And since being turned into a pillow-shooting robot didn't help him win the contest, "Da Rulez" worked.]
Edit Corrected by Jason Hoffman
In the Season 4 episode "Mr Right", Timmy wishes that he was always right, and the magic makes it so that anything he says automatically becomes true. When he goes to tell Vicky he has fairy godparents, he actually says, "You'll probably be so busy that you won't listen to me," which Vicky refutes by telling Timmy that she's not only going to listen, but going to videotape him. But since he said that she wouldn't listen to him, the magic should have made that statement true and Vicky wouldn't have listened to him. [Timmy said, "You probably won't listen to me." he is questioning, rather then just making a statement of fact, so the wish would not force her to not listen.]
Edit Corrected by MasterOfAll
Episode "New Squid in Town": Every time Timmy wishes everyone in the room would freeze, he, Cosmo, Wanda, and Mark Chang don't freeze, even though Timmy didn't specifically mention that they shouldn't freeze. [Throughout the series Timmy has been very unspecific with his wishes. It is even referenced in earlier episodes and mentioned that Cosmo and Wanda usually take liberties with his wishes. ]

Dream Goat! / The Same Game! (series 1)

When blobs "run", they move slow, yet when they "walk", they do so at their probable walking speed. Wouldn't the blobs' "walking" be WAY slower than their "running"? [Look up "thixotropic" and "non-Newtonian fluid". :).]
Edit

Chin Up! / Dog's Day Afternoon! (series 1)

When Timmy, as Doydle the dog, yells human insults but they come out as dog barks, wouldn't Timmy as the dog look angry? [Timmy is really the one saying anything, so he's trying to be a little funny, which is why Doydle isn't looking angry.]
Edit

Father Time! / Apartnership! (series 1)

If Timmy prevented his future parents from meeting, wouldn't he erase from existence? [Not necessarily- he could still be "Mom"'s son or "Dad"'s son in another reality, but it would be more likely that he would LOOK different with another potential parent.]
Edit
Timmy uses his heat vision, that he previously wished for, to win the race for his future dad. But it's revealed later in "Smarty Pants" that if you use a previous wish in a contest, it is magically taken away because it's cheating. [Timmy still had his heat vision, despite journeying back in time. He never said, "I wish I didn't have heat vision anymore." Therefore, he was using a current wish.]
Edit

Cosmo Con / Wanda's Day Off (series 2)

On Wanda finally returns from her day off, she sees Timmy and Cosmo playing cards and trying to not let her know about the "World Domination." When Cosmo makes the walls fall down, you only see the walls that fell down, no roof. And since there wasn't a roof, surely she would have found out by looking up and seeing the Martians. [Yes if she looked up she'd see but she DIDN'T look up. Character stupidity is not a mistake.]
Edit

Shiny Teeth / Odd Odd West (series 2)

Wouldn't Chip Skylark wake up after Wendall crashed to the floor? [Maybe Chip is a deep sleeper. ]
Edit
Wanda says that all wishes that involve teeth must be taken up with the tooth fairy. But in "A Wish Too Far", Timmy wished for perfect teeth and his fairy godparents were able to grant it. [That may have been a new rule. We see in the Christmas episode that new rules can come up anytime.]
Edit

Hail to the Chief / Twistory (series 2)

In Twistory, when Timmy is introducing Thomas Jefferson, it shows that he has grey hair. In real life, he had red hair. [Thomas Jefferson had grey hair when older and occasionally wore powdered wigs (popular at the time) when younger, search images.google.com to see.]
Edit

Fairy Fairy Quite Contrary / Nectar of the Odds (series 2)

Timmy is in his comic book, and Remy appears. If Remy wished to be in a comic book, he would be in his own edition of the issue. [Timmy enters a comic world, not just his own comic; his comic is a portal so to speak. Other comics have been shown to be affected by Timmy's influence. For example, when Timmy first meets the Chrimson Chin, he tells him that he is fictional. This in turn depresses CC, and we find out that this is shown in different comics. Perfectly reasonable for Remy to be there, he just entered the comic world though his own comic.]
Edit
According to Da Rules, if anyone finds out about Timmy's fairy godparents, they have to go away forever. Why don't Timmy's fairies go away forever when Remy finds out they exist? [Remy has a godparent too. Obviously other kids with godparents are exempt from this rule.]
