Homer's Triple Bypass - S4-E11

Continuity mistake: When, Lisa bangs on the window of the operating theatre, there is a person sitting behind her who is asleep. However, when she shouts to Dr Nick, the people behind her are completely different. Then she sits down again, and the sleeping person is behind her. (00:20:00)

Homer's Triple Bypass - S4-E11

Factual error: I get it, it's a comedy. But after open heart surgery, you are sedated for 1-2 days and on a ventilator. So, Homer even being awake after open heart surgery is completely false. Also, as someone who has had open heart surgery, you can barely move your chest because your sternum is fractured.

Suggested correction: You can see no lines on that window indicating glass is there as is shown on all other windows in the show. So the glass is missing and so still broken.

Suggested correction: Homer is in the car as it hits the tree and after this the bonnet is crumpled up obscuring your view of the driver's seat so impossible to say if he is in the car or not.
