The Longest Marge - S33-E11

Continuity mistake: When Mr. Burns realises just how much Grayson is adored by fans, Warburton Parker has multiple bracelets on his right wrist, but in the next shot as Parker tells Burns about the media-driven world, his bracelets have vanished; then after Smithers opens the floor's trapdoor, Parker's bracelets reappear as he falls through the trapdoor.

The Longest Marge - S33-E11

Continuity mistake: During the episode, Grayson Mathers wears a watch on his wrist that inexplicably vanishes and reappears a few times. First, when Marge is in the school infirmary with Grayson, as he says, "I called Peyton Manning a chicken-fried Frankenstein." Second, when Grayson and Bart tussle after family dinner, and Marge tells them to behave. Third, when Mr. Burns shows up at Grayson's birthday party.

The Wayz We Were - S33-E4

Continuity mistake: When Moe pours Pinot Noir into two wine glasses for himself and Maya, Moe's wine glass vanishes from his hand when Barney shows up. Then, when Maya acknowledges that she and Moe are definitely an item again, Maya's wine glass vanishes from her hand. Lastly, the wine bottle vanishes from Moe's right hand between shots as well.

The Wayz We Were - S33-E4

Continuity mistake: When Moe and Maya are in the bar's back room, Moe feels like singing. At the start of this scene, there are dresses with criss-crossed straps hanging on a clothing rack, and those straps are facing the couch. As the scene progresses, changes occur: first, the criss-crossed straps face the opposite way, and then those straps disappear altogether, etc.

The Wayz We Were - S33-E4

Continuity mistake: A random woman asks Homer to be her baby's godfather, and he declines. When it cuts to Moe's bar, the bar's front door opens either at its left or its right, depending on the shot. This occurs again later when Moe returns to the bar to speak to Maya.

The Wayz We Were - S33-E4

Continuity mistake: When Ralph says, "Climate change is real," both of the cars are in the driveway, the Simpson family stands on the sidewalk, and their mailbox is gone, but after the family's close-up both cars have vanished, they're all standing on the grass, and their mailbox reappears in its proper place.

Mothers and Other Strangers - S33-E9

Continuity mistake: A teenage Homer and his father travel to Utah to look for Homer's fugitive mother, whom they find. This completely contradicts the episode Mother Simpson, where Homer didn't reconnect with his mom until he was in his late thirties, and was told all his life by his father that she was dead, even believing that the grave of Walt Whitman belonged to his mother.

Show generally

Continuity mistake: This is a mistake for the introduction from seasons 2-20 (1991-2009). When Homer screams, he turns round. You see this in a wide shot. There are no boxes to the right of the door in the garage. However, two just appear out of thin air when he runs through the garage. (00:01:50)

Skinner's Sense of Snow - S12-E8

Nelson: Hey, look how much Skinner makes: $25,000 a year.
Bart: Let's see, he's 40 years old times 25 grand. Whoa, he's a millionaire.
Skinner: I wasn't a principal when I was one.
Nelson: Plus, in the summer, he paints houses.
Milhouse: He's a billionaire.
Skinner: If I were a billionaire, why would I be living with my mother? [All the kids laugh at him.] They're just not responding to logic anymore.

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.
