The Simpsons

Make Room For Lisa - S10-E16

Other mistake: When Marge takes Homer back inside, his car is seen blocking the traffic. But at least one side of the traffic is driving on the wrong side of the road. The drivers behind Homer's car are on the right side of the road. And the drivers behind Homer's car from the opposite direction are driving on the left side but facing the drivers behind Homer's car on the other side. Either way, one half of the traffic are driving on the wrong side of the road. (00:02:35)

Casual Person

Viva Ned Flanders - S10-E10

Continuity mistake: When Homer and Ned attempt to escape from their Vegas wives at the buffet. The Vegas Wives are directly in front of them, when Homer runs off he runs in an opposite direction, nowhere near them. When Homer runs out, the Vegas wives are right next to him.

Casual Person

Lard of the Dance - S10-E1

Continuity mistake: While Lisa is standing in front of the table with her friends in the cafeteria, we see that the trays appear during the first shot, then after the camera zooms in on Lisa's table, the trays disappear. Then during the third shot, Lisa calls Alex over to her table. Look at the table again: the trays have reappeared. (00:06:00)

I'm With Cupid - S10-E14

Other mistake: When Nelson puts the intestine into the model's mouth, the size of the gut should not increase. It is the same amount of stuff going in a cycle, so where does all the stuff come from? (00:03:15)

I'm With Cupid - S10-E14

Other mistake: The amount of gunk that come from Bart's model at the start is not proportionate to the size of the model. In other words, there couldn't be enough gunk to cover the entire inside of the bus.

Lisa Gets an A - S10-E7

Revealing mistake: When Nelson is offering Lisa the fraction quiz answers, right before Lisa says she's never cheated before and won't again, her right hand disappears for a single frame.

Simpsons Bible Stories - S10-E18

Plot hole: Somehow, despite being enslaved and being nowhere near anything that could help them, the Jews have a camel, which we did not see coming across the channel.

The Cartridge Family - S9-E5

TV Announcer: The Continental Soccer Association is coming to Springfield. It's all here: fast kicking, low scoring. And ties? You bet.
Bart: Hey Dad, how come you've never taken us to see a soccer game?
Homer: I don't know.
TV Announcer: You'll see all your favorite soccer stars. Like Arriaga, Arriaga II, Barriaga, Aruglia, and Pizzozza.
Homer: Oh, I've never heard of those people.
TV Announcer: And they'll all be signing autographs.
Homer: Woohoo!
TV Announcer: This match will determine once and for all which nation is the greatest on Earth. Mexico or Portugal.

Tree House of Horror V - S6-E6

Question: Homer travels back in time and causes changes by what he does in the past, like stepping on a bug. I once saw a movie with the same basic plot: some people travel back in time and are told to be careful not to disturb anything, but when they return to their time everything has changed. In the end they discover it was because they stepped on a butterfly. Does anyone know the name of this movie?

Answer: I'm not sure if this is the one you're thinking of, but an episode of "Ray Bradbury Theatre," called "A Sound of Thunder," dealt with a similar matter: a group of hunters travel back in time to hunt dinosaurs, only to find things have changed when they get back because someone stepped on a butterfly.
