OL1V3R666

Hair By Mr. Bean of London - S1-E19

Audio problem: When Becky is walking towards Otto in the wedding, there is a band playing music. You can hear singing but the singer's mouth isn't even moving.

OL1V3R666

The Library - S1-E3

Revealing mistake: When Mr Bean's book falls apart, he tries putting the book back together, and he holds one page up to the camera and it has a slight reflection as if it is glossy paper. As far as I know old books like the one Mr Bean had don't have pages like that. It's an obviously fake book.

OL1V3R666

Factual error: When Robin Williams rides the car above the clouds, he is fine. At a level like that it can be hard to breathe as temperatures are often quite low when above the clouds, mainly below freezing point.

OL1V3R666

OL1V3R666

Season 2 Episode 6 - S2-E6

Revealing mistake: Just before Andy pushes Francesca down the stairs in her wheelchair, we see Lou walking down the steps, and they are quite steep. However, when Francesca goes down the stairs in her wheelchair she doesn't have much of a bumpy ride, despite the steps. A ramp was put there - you may need to look very carefully and you see it pop up slightly from the steps. [A reasonable way to prevent injury but it is still a mistake.]

OL1V3R666

Season 2 Episode 1 - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: In the first Andy and Lou sketch, when Andy sees the intro to 'The Price Is Right', there is a cup in front of him. However in the next shot Lou brings one over and it is the same one in the same position as in the first shot. Obviously the second shot was filmed first.

Continuity mistake: When Homer and Marge are on stage with Brad Goodman, Homer is eating toffee apples. He keeps eating them but they stay the same size.

OL1V3R666

Marge on the Lam - S5-E6

Plot hole: In the car chase, Chief Wiggum says that one of the suspects (Marge) "is wearing a green dress, pearls, and a lot of blue hair." However when we see Marge from the police car all we can see is her hair, so how would he have known about the pearls and dress?

OL1V3R666

Homer Alone - S3-E15

Deliberate mistake: Arnie says that he drops his bagel. When he does he starts to say it, but when we see the helicopter it has just fallen out. If he dropped it at the time he did, then it would be much further down and wouldn't be visible in that shot. (00:05:20)

Audio problem: When Bart says "Krusty Hotline" his mouth doesn't move.

Tree House of Horror III: The Simpson's Halloween Special III - S4-E5

OL1V3R666

Home Away From Homer - S16-E20

Continuity mistake: When Homer rings the doorbell of the Flanders' former house to visit the new neighbour, it moves downwards on the door frame. In the first shot it lines up with the gap between the lock and the doorknob, but in the next shot it is beside the doorknob, and in other shots in the episode the doorbell isn't even there. Also, the glass panels on both sidelights line up with the door differently between shots.

OL1V3R666

Homer vs. Patty and Selma - S6-E17

Continuity mistake: When Homer is walking upstairs after kicking Patty and Selma out for the second time, the wall that Homer was approaching is a darker colour than it usually is, and Homer walked up the stairs slowly. But a second later he closed a door, indicating that he went into a room. Are we really to believe that he could go very quickly from the stairs to a room in a matter of seconds?

OL1V3R666

OL1V3R666

Bart Gets An F - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: When there is a zoom in of the house just before Bart gets up late, it has the old arch-shaped windows, but in the rest of the episode it has the normal windows. It's obviously a screen from Season 1. (00:06:00)

OL1V3R666

The Front - S4-E19

Continuity mistake: At one point you see a rear view of Marge's head when Homer is talking to her. For some reason her skin is a darker shade than it usually is. It can't be a shadow on Marge because her clothes don't look any darker.

OL1V3R666

Tree House of Horror X - S11-E4

Audio problem: In "Desperately Xeeking Xena", Xena is put in a plastic pouch. Wouldn't her voice sound muffled?

OL1V3R666

Tree House of Horror X - S11-E4

Other mistake: In "Desperately Xeeking Xena", at one point she approaches the Collector, who is about to get a light saber. We can see the back of the pouch that Xena is in, but the tape on the other side isn't visible, even though it is a transparent pouch.

OL1V3R666

Tree House of Horror X - S11-E4

Continuity mistake: In "I Know What You Diddly-Iddly Did", just after Ned has been run over, he turns from a werewolf into his normal self. If you look carefully, his left ear turns brown for a second before turning yellow again.

Show generally

Question: I went on a website recently and it showed a screenshot from a Simpsons episode with an iPod in it. I'd like to know what is the episode called and what season is it in?

OL1V3R666

Tree House of Horror X - S11-E4

Continuity mistake: In "I Know What You Diddly-Iddly Did", there are a few errors: Homer says, "Guess I forgot to put the fog lights in" at a slightly higher pitch to when we heard him say it earlier (When the event actually happened). When Marge actually ran over Ned she did not carry on driving. The flashback shows that Ned was run over without glasses. However in the actual event he had glasses on.

OL1V3R666

Mr. Plow - S4-E9

Continuity mistake: When Homer is putting posters on the cars, the car which we see him putting a poster on has no windscreen wipers in the first shot, but they suddenly appear in the next. In other shots the windscreen wipers are gone. (00:06:50)

Bart's Dog Gets an F - S2-E16

Audio problem: When Bart's dog is chewing on the TV remote, one of the shots on it is of "I Can't Believe They Invented It." with Troy McClure as the host. This is exactly the same shot from "Homer vs Lisa and the 8th Commandment". You can tell because Troy's voice is different. The lip sync is also out, revealing that the line "As an actor, my eyeballs need to look their whitest" is dubbed in.

OL1V3R666

Dude, Where's My Ranch? - S14-E18

Continuity mistake: When Lisa meets Clara, there is a close up of her necklace. The necklace is never there in any of the other shots that we see her. Her ring, as also seen in the close-up isn't visible either.

OL1V3R666

Homer Alone - S3-E15

Audio problem: When Lisa screams "Mom" on the way to school, she just leaves her mouth open and doesn't close it. It should sound like "Maaaaaa" if she keeps her mouth open. (00:03:20)

OL1V3R666

Tree House of Horror III: The Simpson's Halloween Special III - S4-E5

Deliberate mistake: In "Dial Z For Zombies", Homer is shooting zombies with the shotgun at the school. When he shoots the first two he just shoots them twice. Every other zombie he shoots requires him to slide the gun. It doesn't when he shoots the first couple of zombies. (00:19:50)

OL1V3R666

Itchy and Scratchy: The Movie - S4-E6

Revealing mistake: When Nelson blinks right before Milhouse says "No one who saw the movie would say that", Nelson's right eyelid is white for some reason. (00:18:20)

OL1V3R666

Marge vs. the Monorail - S4-E12

OL1V3R666

Homer's Barbershop Quartet - S5-E1

Other mistake: When Bart and Lisa are looking at records, there is a picture of Homer. He had hair at the time the record was made, and the hat he's wearing isn't big enough to cover it, but there's none visible as there should be.

OL1V3R666

OL1V3R666

Beyond Blunderdome - S11-E1

Continuity mistake: The "dummy" in the episode changes consistently from a real character to a dummy sometimes. When Mel jumps into the vehicle in the museum the "dummy" moves aside. When Mel shoves it out of the way, it stays in one rigid position as if it is a dummy. During the chase, the "dummy" falls on the car behind and its facial expression changes. But when one of the guys from THAT car (not the one Mel was in) goes to the dummy, its head is ripped off and you can see that it is stuffed.

OL1V3R666

Beyond Blunderdome - S11-E1

Continuity mistake: The text on the billboard which says "She's having a baby...again!" is black when Mel Gibson and Homer crash through it. After they have landed on the ground, the text on the billboard is white.
