Sorry, Wrong Era - S1-E20

Factual error: When the boys are sent back to the Cretaceous era, they come across a leptictidium, a small, bipedal mammal they call "Leppy." Leptictidium were not around in the cretaceous, they didn't appear until around ten million years after the dinosaurs went extinct, in the early Paleogene. They also lived in Europe, not North America.

Other mistake: After the wedding when everyone is outside, Smithy says he has forgotten the maps that gave directions to the reception. Bryan says he can use the sat nav in his Picasso and tells everyone to follow him. But he was driven to the church in the Bentley with Stacey, so his car wouldn't have been there.

TAC in the Day - S5-E13

Other mistake: Anders, Blake, and Adam help promote Alice to become the boss. Before becoming boss and cleaning up, she had a very casual attitude and is shown wearing informal black, rebellious clothing. However in 3-10 "Flashback in the Day", when Anders, Blake, and Adam first meet Alice she is the same strict, formal boss seen predominantly in the show. So basically TAC in the Day makes no sense, because Alice was already boss by that point in time and already had met the gang before their first day at work. She recruited them, after all.

Gotta Be Me - S2-E22

Factual error: When Luis is in the video store, they pan out to show the video rack he was looking at. They show Disney's Tarzan on one of the racks. Being that this show is set between 1995-1998 for all 4 of the seasons, Tarzan should not be on the shelf as it was not out until 1999.

Wings Over Hooterville - S2-E1
