Corrected entry: In the beginning narrative, the little boy says Big Mama's brother stays in his room watching his TV. At the end of the movie, when the uncle brings his TV down stairs and drops it, money starts flying around. All that paper would surely have caused a fire during the TV's use.

Visible crew/equipment: When Lem is sitting in the living room talking to Kenny at his house, a light from the camera is visible in the window behind them.
Mama Joe: You see, in life we all make some bad choices. My husband was a gambler. Almost cost us this house. But I worked, on my hands and knees, cleaning up after white folks. Taking in laundry. You do what you have to do to stay strong.

Correction: Paper ignites at 451 degrees Farenheit. As long as the paper didn't come into direct contact with an electric arc, it's unlikely that the paper would ignite before the increase in temperature either caused the TV to stop operating or the uncle to notice the room heating up remarkably.
