2 continuity mistakes in season 1 - chronological order

(3 votes)

Bailey's Show - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: In the control room during the interview, one shot shows Johnny Fever without glasses, next shot in same scene, he has his glasses on.

Turkeys Away - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: While Les is on-air after the first few turkeys have been dropped, in the wide shot of Johnny, Bailey, Venus, and Andy inside the studio, the record on the turntable has a brown label as Les mentions the Hindenburg tragedy and cuts out. In Johnny's closeup he closes with his "bombed with live turkeys" mall update. Then back to a wide shot, and the record on the turntable now has a white label, even though it has not been touched. (00:24:15)
