Entry Dale says "I'm not a quitter. Hell, I've been smoking for thirty years." Dale and most of the adults on the show are in their late thirties. He can't have been smoking for that long, unless he started when he was seven or eight. [Like the submitter says, Dale could have started early. I have actually heard of people who started smoking when they were nine, and it is not impossible that Dale started when he was that age. It is also possible that he exaggerated, and had been smoking for, say, 28 years, which would make him approximately 12 when he started.]

Entry In the episode where the family visits Peggy's family's ranch in Montana, Peggy's mother is mad because Peggy didn't stay on the ranch and marry the neighbors' son. However, in an earlier Valentine's Day episode, where Peggy learned that Hank had mono, we saw Peggy and Hank as a couple in high school, with Peggy going to West Arlen High. This means that she was not living in Montana as a young adult (or at an age when her mother thought she would be old enough to marry). [At what age can a mother start fantasizing about her child marrying the neighbor's kid?]

Entry In the episode with Santa Ana's wooden leg. After Dale has made Cotton the fake driver's license, he holds it up and you can already see part of the word "Cheerios", showing that Dale used a cereal box to make it. Cotton would obviously notice when he took the license. [Saying what a character would or wouldn't do does not add up to a mistake. Cotton needed a license and while one could argue whether or not he noticed it was made from a cereal box he didn't care either way.]
Corrected by Lummie
Entry In the episode where Luanne's mother, Lee Ann, comes back, Hank says that Luanne's father (Peggy's brother) is hiding out on an oil rig in the Gulf Coast. However, in a Thanksgiving episode (the one where everyone is stuck at the airport), it's mentioned that Luanne's father is in Montana. [People do move around. Just because in one episode they said he was somewhere, this does not mean he could not have moved somewhere else at a later date.]

Entry In the season 11 episode "Hank Gets Dusted", Hank, Dale, Bill, and Boomhauer talk about the fun they had in Cotton's Cadillac when they were kids. However, in the season 5 episode "When Cottom Comes Marching Home", Lane Pratley comes to take the Cadillac away because Cotton is a few months behind on payments. This means that Cotton couldn't have had the car since Hank and the other guys were kids. Lane Pratley is around Hank's age, so he wouldn't have sold Cotton a car back then. [In the season 3 episode "Nine Pretty Darn Angry Men", Lane Pratley stated "I own Pratley Ford, Pratley Honda and I got my eye on Pratley Cadillac- my daddy ain't doin' so good". Presumably the elder Pratley sold Cotton the Cadillac before his son bought his Cadillac dealership.]

Plastic White Female (series 1)

Entry The cosmetology teacher makes marks on Hank's head to show where Luanne cut his hair wrong. She is still holding the blue marker when she walks away. Hank gets up to comfort Luanne, and you can see that he has no marker in his hands. However, when he points out the bumps on his head, he suddenly has a marker and marks them. When the teacher is shown again, she is still holding the blue marker, so she didn't give it to Hank. [There couldn't be another marker lying nearby?]

How to Fire a Rifle Without Really Trying (series 2)

Entry In one episode, Hank says that "the N.R.A. is a Washington D.C. based organisation." The N.R.A. is based in Fairfax, Virginia. [A lot of organizations are considered based in Washington, even though the actual buildings are in surrounding Virginia or Maryland.]

As Old as the Hills (1) (series 3)

Entry When Hank and Peggy are in the truck, Peggy says that they can't travel until Ladybird dies and Bobby moves out, but in the episode "Three Days of the Kahndo" (season two), Hank mentioned that nothing is tying them to the house now that they have automatic sprinklers. [Hank means that nothing is tying them to the house to take care of the lawn, he is not talking about leaving for an extended period of time. In other words, they can leave the house to do errands, go to church or ball games, shopping, etc, without having to come back to the house to move a lawn sprinkler. He's not talking about going on long trips with Peggy, which they presumably can't do until Ladybird dies (which shouldn't be too long, as she is already old at that point) or Bobby moves out, which is not likely going to be at 18 years old, because many kids are staying at home longer these days.]

A Fire Fighting We Will Go (series 3)

Entry When Bill is telling his version of what happened at the station, and he mentions Dale switching the names on the oxygen tanks, Dale is shown with dark hair than normal. [The guys' recount of the events that transpired all seem to vary as it is their recollection and memory. Even if Dale's hair was darker, it was how Bill remembered it not a straight replay of what happened. Throughout the episode the biggest problem with finding out what happened is that they all seem to remember so many details differently.]

Pretty, Pretty Dresses (series 3)

Entry In this episode Hank professes that when he set the Arlen High single season rushing record he needed blockers and Bill Dauterive blocked for him, however in many episodes before and after they proclaim Bill "the bulldozer" Dauterive to be Arlen Highs rushing record. [No Bill was never Arlen's rushing record holder, he held Arlen's single season touchdown record. This was explained in the episode "Bills are made to be Broken" that he held the touchdown record. It was also unlikely he would have held the record in any case, as he was a defensive linesman not a running back like Hank.]

Death of a Propane Salesman (2) (series 3)

Entry Luanne's hair was blown off in the fire, yet she has no burns on her shoulders, around her neck, or anywhere on her arms. [Hair burns at a lot lower temperature than skin, so it is possible the heat blast was enough to singe the hair away but not enough to damage the skin. We also see when Luanne gets away from the mall, Hank used a fire blanket to cover her. So it could be concluded that he was able to cover enough of her not to get burned but couldn't save her hair.]
Corrected by Mad Ade
Entry When Hank and Luanne come out of the store after the explosion, they are right beside each other, yet only Luanne lost her hair. [This was a conclusion of the previous season's cliffhanger. Hank was on the other side of the store when he smelled the propane, and Buckley and Luanne were closer to the blast. He found her after the explosion, thus her hair was burned but his was not.]

It's Not Easy Being Green (series 5)

Entry There is no explanation shown for Bill, Hank, and Dale being able to start Boomhauer's car in the flashback. Boomhauer wouldn't let them drive it, so he obviously didn't give them the keys. [Boomhauer never stated he wouldn't let them drive his car. However even if he had there are a number of explanations of how they could have driven the car. Boomhauer loaned them the car, they were going to take care of it, they took his keys, they made a copy of the key etc.]

The Bluegrass is Always Greener (series 6)

Entry Watch Dale's finger; his keyboard playing does not match the actual bass notes being played. [In the "propaniacs" episode it is shown that he has no idea how to play the keyboard and that he just fakes it and goes with the pre-recordings.]

Lupe's Revenge (series 6)

Entry When Peggy and Lupe return to Mexico and Peggy thinks the crowd of people are cheering her on, she says "Por los niños!", pronouncing the "ñ" correctly. However, in several other episodes of the show, she pronounces the "ñ" in the word "español" incorrectly, like an "n". [It's an ongoing joke in the series. Peggy is a very bad teacher of the Spanish language. She teaches it but can barely speak or understand it.]
Corrected by Rlvlk

Bobby Goes Nuts (series 6)

Entry In the beginning of the episode, Khan makes Connie's friends sign a contract when they come over for Connie's sleepover. Despite being an intelligent man he should know that even if a child signs a contract, it is null and void unless the child is with a parent or legal guardian. Khan might be rash and strict but with how seriously he takes these contracts it seems doubtful he would forgot something as important as a minor needing an guardian to sign an contract. Evidence of how serious he was about the contract that a little later in the episode, he even takes away the girls pillows when they are fighting in order to avoid anyone getting hurt. Then after this one of the girls makes a comment how Connie's dad made her pay for breakfast. [You have completely missed the point of the situation. Khan is a control freak and he is always pressuring Connie to become a success i.e. "Bluegrass is Always Greener on the Other Side". He comes up with the idea of a special contract, which is only valid in his house and does not apply in any legal system whatsoever, as a means of preventing the other girls from making his daughter a stupid party girl.]

Pigmalion (series 7)

Entry Before Luanne moves in with Trip, he tells her that he had her things shipped to the house, and some movers are shown carrying a couch and other things. But later, Luanne is shown staying in a room with the mansion's furniture and none of her things. [That is not a mistake, but just the oddity of Trip. As we see in the episode, Trip wanted to make Luanne look just like the girl from the advertisement, with whom he grew up. The fact he replaced all her clothes with those like the ad, and colored her hair would explain that he wanted to control everything about her. As for her belongings, they likely put it all in some other room or in storage, yet another means of control.]
