Fresh Off the Boat

Where Are the Giggles? - S3-E8

Factual error: When Jessica goes to buy the Tickle Me Elmo. The Twister, Connect 4 and Operation games are the current releases. Furthermore, the Pokemon toys are recent releases as well, showing the modern design of Pikachu. Further to this, while the first Pokémon games were released in 1996, and even if such Pikachu plushies were available to import at this point, the franchise and the resulting 'Pokémania' did not officially reach the US until 1998, making them unlikely to appear in Deidre's collection.

Gotta Be Me - S2-E22

Factual error: When Luis is in the video store, they pan out to show the video rack he was looking at. They show Disney's Tarzan on one of the racks. Being that this show is set between 1995-1998 for all 4 of the seasons, Tarzan should not be on the shelf as it was not out until 1999.
