Factual error: If Homer's stomach was really caught on the towel rail the way they show it to be, he wouldn't be able to see the scales at all without having to look round it.
Sideshow Bob's Last Gleaming - S7-E9
Factual error: Sideshow Bob couldn't hide out in the Duff blimp's helium pocket because there wouldn't be any oxygen.
Factual error: Bart uses Milhouse's glasses as binoculars, but as Milhouse is near-sighted this wouldn't work.
Factual error: You wouldn't hear a dial tone on one side of the phone line if the phone on the other side was cut from the receiver. You wouldn't hear anything.
The Secret War of Lisa Simpson - S8-E25
Factual error: When Bart smashes all the glass in Springfield(as a result from the sound wave he made by speaking through the mega phones)the car windows get smashed as well. But when we see Chief Wiggum and Homer's car, the glass is still intact.
The City of New York vs. Homer Simpson - S9-E1
Factual error: The windows of the World Trade Center couldn't open and the Twin Towers weren't in front of each other as depicted in this episode. They were at an angle.
Bart Carny - S9-E12
Factual error: Sharks cannot just reverse backwards like that one did under the glass bottom boat. The only way sharks can go backwards is either swimming around in a circle or allowing the current to carry them.
Factual error: When Bart is at Nelson's house and Nelson is firing the BB gun, bullets should come out of his gun when he pumps it. None ever come out, and several times he is shown firing without pumping.
Sunday, Cruddy Sunday - S10-E12
Factual error: At the end, when Homer and company are being carried out of the Super Bowl after the game, it is daylight. Usually, it is dark by the 4th quarter.
Thirty Minutes Over Tokyo - S10-E23
Factual error: There is a flight to Honalulu, Hawaii listed on the national flights screen. This is a domestic flight, as it does not involve leaving the country.
It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad Marge - S11-E21
Factual error: When Homer changes Marge's oil, when he lies on the skateboard, there are no trucks (axle mounts on a skateboard) on it as there should be.
Skinner's Sense of Snow - S12-E8
Factual error: Superintendents are the ones who decide whether or not schools should be closed for snow days, not school principals.
Factual error: When the creator of Danger Dog draws a picture of Skinner on a notepad and puts it on the projector, it is perfectly visible. It shouldn't have been, seeing as the pad was so thick.
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.
Special Edna (a.k.a. Love and Marking) - S14-E7
Factual error: During the video screening at the Teacher of the Year committee, the panel is watching the teacher who acts like Robin Williams. In the video the main judge says "Next" and pushes a button on the video control. It goes to the video that Bart Simpson sent in. How was this possible? The video control would only fast forward the video and two separate entries would not be sent in on the same tape. The committee wouldn't have spliced the footage together onto the same tape as the tapes were piled up on the desk. At the start of the scene one of the judges mentions to put in the next tape.
The Fat and the Furriest - S15-E5
Factual error: Homer creates a giant sugar ball by making a normal sized cotton candy on a paper cone, and then coating it with liquid caramel. The cotton candy holds its shape and Homer continues to expand it with more cotton candy and caramel. However, cotton candy dissolves very quickly and tears apart easily. Between the weight and moisture content of the caramel, the original cotton candy would have immediately melted and/or collapsed.
Marge vs. Singles, Seniors, Childless Couples and Teens, and Gays - S15-E8
Factual error: The symbols on the heads of the Teletubbies on stage are wrong. They did use the word 'teletubbies', so they're meant to be the same as the real world. (00:05:40)
Margical History Tour - S15-E11
Factual error: Lisa, as Salieri, says she has wine for sale : "Claret, Port, Riesling ...". All three glasses on her tray are filled with red wine. Riesling is a white wine.
Margical History Tour - S15-E11
Factual error: On the castle where King Henry VIII is supposed to live, the flags at the top have the pattern of the English flag, being a + shaped cross on a coloured background, but it should be a red cross on a white background. Instead it's a white cross on a blue background. Those are the colours of the Scottish flag, but England and Scotland were separate countries at that point in history. And the cross on the Scottish flag is an X shape rather than a + shape anyway.
Factual error: The tongue Lisa sleeps on in the museum isn't anatomically correct. It shows the bitter and sweet taste buds as being side by side on the surface of the tongue. In reality, different taste buds are not in specific places on the tongue. I wouldn't normally complain, but this is supposed to be in a museum.
