Advanced Documentary Filmmaking - S4-E6

Continuity mistake: Abed is making a documentary, and we see the fact that there are two cameras throughout the episode, so they are definitely acknowledged. However, in the scene at the trout fisherman's house, there is someone filming behind Annie and Troy and towards Annie and Troy. The problem being that whenever it shows Annie and Troy in front, there is no cameraman behind them, but when it cuts to behind them again there is somebody there filming.

Advanced Documentary Filmmaking - S4-E6

Continuity mistake: When the group is making posters for the MacGuffin Institute meeting, Annie holds up a poster saying "Welcome Archie" to show off name brand glitter but the character of Archie isn't introduced until the next episode (in which the banner shows up again). (00:03:11)

Suggested correction: This isn't a mistake. The episodes were simply aired out of order than the order they were produced. "Economics of Marine Biology" (production code 406), the following episode, was filmed before "Advanced Documentary Filmmaking" (production code 408).

Trivia: The character Annie Edison was originally written to be either Asian or Latino, but Alison Brie did so well in her audition that she was cast. The character of "Annie Kim" (sometimes referred to as "Asian Annie") is essentially an inside joke, as she is an Annie-Edison-like character portrayed by an Asian actress as Annie was originally conceived, and serves as a "rival" to Edison throughout seasons 3-6.

Basic Lupine Urology - S3-E17

Question: When Troy and Abed are showing the yam to a lady she tells them that their yam was about to bloom, and that it was stepped on. I don't understand how she couldn't tell that it had been boiled? If she can tell that it was about to bloom, it doesn't make sense that she couldn't see that it had been in hot water. Of course, she wouldn't be at Greendale (I assume she is at Greendale but I could be wrong) if she was that good at something.

Answer: It was part of the plot that when the boiled yam was dropped it looked like it was stepped on (which it never was). So there was no way to tell the difference between the flesh being soft because it was boiled or because it was stepped on (in the show that is, I don't know if one could tell the difference in real life). Plus, the rest of the yam wasn't boiled, so there was no evidence the yam was sitting in boiling water.
