Married... with Children (1987) - 25 mistakes in entire show

Revealing: When Al is blocking the killer's axe with his suitcase and they struggle for it, it is obvious that the axe is made of rubber, as the handle keeps bending.

Revealing: When the mall Santa lands in the Bundys' back yard, everybody looks toward the back, and when Al looks forward, he cracks a smile although he's upset about the matter. Ed O'Neil admitted he couldn't contain his laughter.

Other: At the end of this episode, there is a typo in the credits: "Directed by" is written twice.

Continuity: During Kelly's dance, a nerdy girl grabs Bud and starts kissing him, but in the next shot, but is standing alone in the background.

Revealing: In the scene where Al and his Dad (both played by Ed O'Neill) are sitting on the couch side by side watch the lines of the cushion in the middle. Every time one of them moves you can see where the two separate shots are overlaid.

Visible crew/equipment: After Al fixes the roof and Peg reminds him to fix the TV antenna, when Al says he can do it, a shadow can be seen moving across the blue bucket on the table. (Probably a crew member or equipment.)

Plot hole: Al hasn't got enough cash to pay for a pizza and Peggy overmaxes his credit cards. But somehow he manages to buy three flight tickets for Chicago-Las Vegas. Where'd the money come from ?

Revealing: When Kelly enjoys her triumph at the middle of the stairs you can see a shadow on the wall right from her - obviously Al stands behind the wall waiting for his cue.

Revealing: When the bailiff pours rum into the judge's jar, it's obvious that there's nothing coming out of the flask.

Visible crew/equipment: At the beginning of the Last Will reading we see that there's no-one sitting left to the female notary. But in the close-ups there is a small round silver-shining object at the right edge of the picture - left from her. Must be some equipment.

Visible crew/equipment: When Peggy enters you can see the shadow of someone's head at the left edge (the kitchen). It can't be anyone of the actors.

Plot hole: Oddly enough that the song Al is looking for is just played when Al switches on the radio. But then the DJ announces days of music - but after a jingle nothing happens. No music, no DJ, just silence for seconds - and no-one has switched the radio off.

Continuity: When the store employee comes over to ask Al and Peg what they were doing, Peg throws a bag of chips in the shopping cart and says shopping. When Al asks Peg what the ingredients are, next shot the bag of chips are on Peg's lap.

Plot hole: The supermarket director orders the photographer to take a photo of Al's special shopping cart. Then he turns around a little towards the cart. When the camera flashes, his right shoulder has to be in the whole left side of that picture.

Revealing: When Jefferson starts to shove the 'regulation Foodies cart,' it's very obvious that the actor makes the shaking movements of the cart by himself.

Revealing: When Al 'bowls' Jefferson out of the way you can see the stuntman jump high and fall back into some kind of holding wire. It's an annoyingly bad stunt.

Continuity: When Marcy loses her contact lenses she is run over twice by shopping carts, leaving tire marks on both sides of her clothes. In the overhead showing shot showing all the characters, she is clean. Cut to a closeup, she has the tire marks again.

Continuity: When Jefferson and Marcy are getting ready to take off during the supermarket race, Al sprays the floor with oil causing them to slip. Being that it is fresh oil, their clothes should have oil stains. But in the next scene, Jefferson and Marcy are perfectly clean.

Plot hole: After Al steps out of the coyote doody he goes to Bud and puts an arm around him. Then they walk together towards the same spot - without lookng down.

Continuity: When the grown-ups are playing 'Ethical dilemma' Peggy lands on the field 'Sexual intimacy' (the field right after 'Start' with a one-word-title). Four minutes later in the show Al lands on the same field - but now it's 'Caring'. They can't have turned the game board because all the cards on it are in the same position.
