Julia Drives Over the First Amendment - S3-E22
Stupidity: Surely, Julia realises she could get hurt or hurt someone driving her car into that newsstand. Not to mention they'd take away her driver's license because of this.

Continuity mistake: The tape recording of the killings Stretch has is in her right hand. A shot later, it's suddenly in her left hand with her purse in her right hand. (00:16:18)

I Married a Witch (1942)
Factual error: Those in America, mainly in Massachusetts, weren't burned at the stake when accused of witchcraft. They were hanged. It was those in Europe who were burned at the stake.

Question: Did the nihilists force that one's girlfriend to get her toe cut off?
Answer: They don't appear to have; she's a nihilist too, and seems to have been in on it. The way they put it in their confrontation with the Dude and Walter suggests this: "His girlfriend cut off her toe", "She thought we would get a million dollars." Both expressions imply that she did it herself in the hopes of getting the ransom.

Plot hole: Amazing that neither Hank's mother nor father ever saw the bandage on the back of his head, peeled it off, and would discover his tattoo.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 (1986)
Question: When Leatherface starts rampaging during Stretch's flirting with him, and he's starting his chainsaw up, is this supposed to represent something? It's right after she repeatedly asks if he's mad at her and how good he is.
Answer: It's basically Leatherface's version of an orgasm. Stretch appeals to his sexuality in order to survive, and he's aroused. He uses his chainsaw as a phallic object, rubbing it against her leg and then pressing it into her groin, and is panting, which obviously symbolizes his idea of sex. And then he becomes aggressive, revs up his chainsaw, and destroys the studio in an explosive emotional display, not unlike the strong physical/emotional sensation that comes with an orgasm. You could also theoretically make an argument that the mess he creates by sawing and throwing things around specifically represents male ejaculation, which involves a pulsating release of semen and can be, let's just say, "messy" sometimes depending on what sexual activity you're doing.
Thank you.

Batman: Arkham Knight
Stupidity: It seems risky locking Harley in one of the infected people's cells. She could catch the infection within hours. Batman should've taken her or had Robin take her to GCPD.

Suggested correction: The infection could only be passed on from Joker's infected blood. Plus, Batman wouldn't want to take the risk of a loose cannon like Harley running around.

Question: Why did Alexandra Paul quit?
Answer: No particular reason. She was an actress and wanted to pursue other things, like dramas and comedies. She was the Lifetime movie heroine during the 1990s.

Continuity mistake: Chuck Mangione is shown living in the Mega Lo Mart, having faked his death after the explosion. Yet, he was shown in "Death Of A Propane Salesman" at Buckley's funeral.

Other mistake: Five pancakes are made and shot onto the kitchen ceiling, yet only one is on Pee-Wee's plate.

Suggested correction: I think it's reasonable to presume that one simply fell down onto the plate while the others remained stuck to the ceiling.

My Name Is Earl (2005)
Question: Why'd they cancel the show?
Answer: Details are sketchy, but apparently NBC had renewed the series for a 5th season, but after unresolved contract disputes, the network canceled the show. 20th Century Fox, who produced the show, attempted to get other networks like FOX, TNT, and TBS to pick it up, but the studio was unable to reach favorable terms that would protect the show's artistic content.

Answer: Hank is portrayed as being somewhat stern and uncomfortable with expressing a lot of deep emotion. Maybe it's because of the way his father, Cotton, treats him: scolding him for acting too emotional and such. This is shown in some flashbacks. A recurring joke is that he has no problem being "lovey dovey" with the dog, Ladybird, and easily shows his affection to her.
