Gomer the House Guest - S4-E6

Continuity mistake: In earlier episodes, we are told that Gomer can't do mechanic work. He just pumps gas and air: "There's no charge for air; air is free; we don't make no charge for air." But in this episode, Gomer has become an ace master mechanic.

The Darlings Are Coming - S3-E25

Continuity mistake: When Briscoe gets into his truck, his hat is wet from dipping it (5x) in a horse trough. The camera cuts away to Andy and immediately back to Briscoe, whose hat is now dry. Also, "she's always hood for 11 hat fulls," yet Briscoe only puts 5 hats of water in his engine.

Opie's Fortune - S5-E9

Trivia: This is basically the same episode as Leave It To Beaver 1960 episode Beaver Finds a Lady's Wallet. The deadline passed in both. Except, for Beaver, the lady turns out to be a greedy cad who promises to reward Beaver and doesn't deliver. Ward buys a radio and mails it to Beaver after more than a week passed both cases, the boys do the right thing without any expectation of gain for themselves. Both good lessons.
