The Boys in the Band - S15-E1

Continuity mistake: In the cutaway of Stewie talking with the three co-workers at the factory, there is a man towards the left of shot, leaning against a forklift. Beside the man is a female factory worker sitting on a crate about three to four feet to the left of him and her lunchbox is on the ground in front of the crate. In the next shot, as Stewie walks back to his forklift, the crate the woman is sitting on and the lunchbox are a much further distance from the man. The shot then pulls out, and the woman and her lunchbox are suddenly back to the original distance.

The Boys in the Band - S15-E1

Question: When Stewie is talking to Brian about songs not addressing baby issues, Brian says to Stewie "Well how could they address baby issues? Children's songs are written by adults. And dollars to donuts, white adults." Stewie then replies saying "Who are you mad at, Brian?" and Brian then says "How much time you got?" Did I miss a joke or something? What exactly was "And dollars to donuts, white adults" supposed to mean?

Casual Person

Chosen answer: "Dollars to donuts" is just a colorful expression meaning you're pretty sure about something (similar to saying "100 to 1" which in betting terms mean I'll put up $100 I'm right and you put up $1 that I'm wrong). Brian is just suggesting baby songs are written by white adults because he's saying white people don't have real problems.

Question: When Stewie says he is going to write a song and that Brian can help, Brian replies saying "Well, I did write a musical about Alexander Hamilton." Stewie then looks puzzled by what Brian said and Brian says to Stewie "Not that one." First, who exactly is the Alexander Hamilton that Brian was talking about? And second, what exactly was Stewie supposed have been thinking of after Brian said Alexander Hamilton, but before Brian pointed out it "wasn't that one"?

Casual Person

Chosen answer: There's a Broadway musical called "Hamilton", which is about Alexander Hamilton. It's been very successful and won countless awards. Stewie gives Brian a look of disbelief that he wrote the popular "Hamilton" musical, so Brian is saying the musical he wrote is not the famous musical, but a different one.

A Fistful of Meg - S12-E4

Continuity mistake: In the episode "FOX-y Lady" (7-10) it was established that Quagmire was 61 years old. In this episode, Quagmire stated to Meg he was bullied in 1986 and a flashback shows that he was a teenager. So how could Quagmire have been bullied in 1986 as a teenager if he should have been in his 30's at this time? (00:12:15)

No Chris Left Behind - S5-E16

Continuity mistake: Peter says "Oh crap" as soon as he realises Ernie the Giant Chicken is looking at him in the window. When the camera pans over to Ernie, he is standing an inch away from the glass. It then cuts to a wide angle where Ernie jumps through the window, and he has instantly moved back a few inches.

Yug Ylimaf - S11-E4

Continuity mistake: When Stewie is born whilst time is reverting, Doctor Hartman says "It's a girl... with a penis and no vagina". Then after Brian restored the flow of time and Stewie is actually born, Doctor Hartman instead says "It's a boy". (00:18:25 - 00:19:55)

Yug Ylimaf - S11-E4

Deliberate mistake: The time machine reverting causes everything in life to go backwards. However, although the characters' actions are reversed, their dialogue is always spoken forwards and not backwards. (00:08:00)

And Then There Were Fewer - S9-E1

Continuity mistake: Just after the guests have found Muriel, there is a shot from outside the manor where we can see Quagmire's car at the back of the rest of the cars. But in the next overview shot of the manor, Quagmire's car is now in front of a red car. (00:29:30)
