Scuse Me While I Miss the Sky - S14-E16
Continuity mistake: When Skinner opens the door to the room Lisa is in, there is a red book with white rings around it behind the door, it is easily the most noticeable book on the shelf. When the shot cuts back, the book is suddenly blue.

Agents in America, Part III - S2-E22
Continuity mistake: When he goes out of the window, Frasier takes off his tie, and there is then a closer shot of him. Suddenly his top shirt button is undone, which it wasn't in the wider shot.

Agents in America, Part III - S2-E22
Continuity mistake: When Frasier is watching, and complaining about Xena, his hand alternates between being on the arm of the sofa and on his leg between shots.
28th Jun 2004
Revealing mistake: I think there might be something wrong with the eels in this episode. They don't move in the tank, despite being alive and don't move when taken out either. Moreover, you cannot actually see any in the tank with one exception. Rubber replacements not up to standard obviously.
28th Jun 2004
Continuity mistake: When the vase is broken during the swordfight, notice the way it has been damaged. When Niles comes back down the stairs, the damage to the vase is different.

Sweet Seymour Skinner's Baadasssss Song - S5-E19
Continuity mistake: In the air duct, the dog comes up behind Willie in a straight line and licks his feet, we saw what the duct looked like when Willie turned around. However, when the children start throwing stuff at the duct, from the outside there is a sharp bend right behind where Willie and the dog are that wasn't there in the internal shots.
28th Jun 2004
Continuity mistake: When Anna is holding the "virtual pet" after realising it has died, in the shots from the front she is holding it in both hands, but from the back it's only in her right hand. It's tricky to see because there is a pile of papers in the way, but her left hand is folded in front of her in the shots from behind.
28th Jun 2004
Other mistake: During the final dogfight, the same shots of missiles flying through the air are used several times.

Large Marge - S14-E4
Factual error: In Luigi's, the lobsters in the tank are bright red. They are actually quite dark brown until they are boiled when they become red/pink.
27th Jun 2004
Continuity mistake: When Homer bangs on the screen in the testing booth, the little sign on the top left of the glass that was there earlier is no longer there.
25th Jun 2004
Revealing mistake: When the cat rips the painting, it is already damaged before it touches it.
25th Jun 2004
Tales from the Public Domain - S13-E14
Continuity mistake: In the Troy scene, the letterbox outside the wall suddenly appears when the shot looks down to it. It wasn't there before and it isn't afterwards.
25th Jun 2004
Factual error: During the scenes of the Calcutta riots and various other places, we see various cars from the 50's when the events in question took place in the 40's. Most notably several Morris cars which hadn't been built yet.
24th Jun 2004
Other mistake: During the Battle of Agincourt, the same shots of soldiers being killed are used several times. Most noticeably there is one poor French soldier who dies from an arrow in his back at least twice.

Ground Zero - S4-E6
Audio problem: When Greene is outside by the river explaining what happened to him, there are a couple of really bad sound edits in the background noise. These are really obvious as the sound suddenly changes, and for some reason the background noise in this scene is very loud, almost as loud as the dialogue; very strange.
23rd Jun 2004
Continuity mistake: When the family are returning from the picnic, they pull into the drive and Homer has a seatbelt on in some shots, and in others he isn't wearing it. You can't even see it attached to the side of the car sometimes.
22nd Jun 2004
Sweets and Sour Marge - S13-E8
Continuity mistake: When Homer falls off the human pyramid, he grabs onto someones rear end to stop himself from falling. In the next shot, he is suddenly holding a foot.
21st Jun 2004
Continuity mistake: When Homer is being hypnotised, in some shots there are plates on the Simpsons table, in others there are not.
21st Jun 2004
Factual error: At one point the barristers are seen going into the old arch entrance of the Old Bailey. However, you cannot actually go in that way, it's blocked off, you have to go in the more modern entrance and through a series of security checks.
21st Jun 2004
Factual error: At several points we are shown the barristers inside the Old Bailey. However, it is in fact the Royal Courts of Justice on The Strand, not the Old Bailey.
