Truth and Consequences - S3-E7
Stupidity: This episode shows the school's faculty time-clock to be in a common area of the school. Placing a time-clock in such an area would be extremely foolish, as any disgruntled or prankster student could easily mess with a faculty member's timecard. Not to mention the episode shows Janitor Bud bribing a student to clock him out long after he has left for the day.

Other mistake: When Eric asks Mr. Williams why everyone is applauding Frankie missing a shot in their game of pool, Mr. Williams notes it's because no-one has ever seen two people play for three hours without sinking a shot. However, if you rewatch a couple of times the part where Frankie takes his shot and you count the balls on the table, there are only 14, not including the cue ball, when there should be fifteen. If by chance a ball was knocked off the table, then given how much the crowd was into the game, someone would have told them they needed to place the ball back on the table.

Revealing mistake: When Topanga emerges from the kitchen with more ice for Cory, instead of seeing the kitchen through the open doorway, you can see a wall with framed pictures, suggesting another set was there in place of the kitchen.

The Pink Flamingo Kid - S3-E17
Other mistake: When Eddie busts Cory filming him and his cronies, he spends a few moments intimidating Cory before snatching the camera out of his hands and throwing it against the ground. After Shawn breaks up the situation and notes that they broke the camera, Cory remarks that they didn't get the tape and proceeds to pull a tape from under his jacket. Cory's hands are both visible gripping the camera the entire time that Eddie is confronting him, and he didn't have the opportunity to retrieve the tape when Shawn intervened, so he couldn't have had the tape tucked away.

She Was Killed by Space Junk - S1-E3
Trivia: The Doctor Manhattan - themed sex toy that Laurie receives is called "Excalibur." This is a clue to Doctor Manhattan actually being Cal Abar, i.e. when he returns to his Doctor Manhattan form, he is "ex Cal Abar".

Truth and Consequences - S3-E7
Plot hole: In this episode, it is discovered through a scientific study that Eric does not dream, and in fact doesn't even register brain activity while he is sleeping. However, the season 2 episode "Wrong Side of the Tracks" features a subplot where Eric listens to a motivational tape while he sleeps so he can learn to ice skate, and he dreams of Nancy Kerrigan giving him a lesson.

The Heart is a Lonely Hunter - S3-E15
Other mistake: Dana exits Chubbie's and sees Shawn has set up a picnic for her. She remarks that it's the middle of winter and Shawn is shaking from the cold, but her breath is not visible.

The Heart is a Lonely Hunter - S3-E15
Revealing mistake: When the news director is flipping through the booklet that is Arthur's résumé, you can see the pages are blank.

A Kiss is More Than a Kiss - S3-E14
Revealing mistake: When Cory puts the talking teddy bear that Topanga gave him in the trash compactor, the bear screams and Alan and Amy come down to investigate. Amy opens the trash compactor door and pulls out a bear crushed into a cube, but if you look closely, you can see the original bear still in the trash compactor unharmed.

Trivia: When Tony Stark is visiting the Raft, an imprisoned Clint Barton mockingly calls him a "futurist." In 2004, Robert Downey Jr. released an album called "The Futurist."

Trivia: When Marvel was going through bankruptcy in the late 90's, they gave Sony the opportunity to purchase the film rights to their entire catalogue of available characters for $25 million. Sony declined, thinking no-one cared about Marvel's other characters, and settled on just purchasing the rights to Spider-Man and his supporting characters for $10 million.

Continuity mistake: When She-Hulk is talking to Hulk by the torch on the Statue of Liberty, she is standing directly in front of the Thing. When the shot changes, she is instantly a few feet away from the Thing. (00:19:57)

Continuity mistake: When the Thing is crumpling the flyer between his hands, the flyer alternates between being white and the same orange color as the Thing.

Oh, Brother, Where Are Thou? - S2-E15
Question: How exactly did the production of Homer's car bankrupt Herb? If Herb, as a highly successful car manufacturer, was spending so much money spoiling Marge and the kids that an $82,000 price tag for making a car was enough of a straw to break the camel's back, wouldn't he have gone bankrupt sooner than later anyway?
Answer: It wasn't the cost of one car, but that they'd produced thousands of Homer's ridiculous vehicles, which they'd marketed as a family car, but cost five times as much as a new car at the time. No one would buy them and the company went under.
Wasn't the car just a demo though? How would they have been able to produce thousands of cars in such a short amount of time?
Big difference between a "demo" or prototype car compared to a launch car. The dealers must have stock available of the launch car so people can actually buy them straight away.

Continuity mistake: Ogress is depicted as having five teeth. Two on top, and three on bottom. When she is saying to the Thing "Your chivalry is wasted on me," the bottom-middle tooth disappears. (00:08:50)

Continuity mistake: When the cage is dropped over the Thing, you can see it is a big solid rock slab on top of wooden bars. When the shot changes, the inside of the cage somehow fills up with bananas, even though there was nowhere for them to drop directly into the cage from.

Answer: "This" happens to be used in computer programming language to refer to an entity that is part of a currently running code. But that is just a guess, or at least a starting point for a discussion.
