The Simpsons

New Kid on the Block - S4-E8

Audio problem: When Laura tells Bart she has a boyfriend, Bart imagines her ripping out his heart. If you listen and look carefully, you will see the sound of Laura's hand ripping out Bart's heart comes before Laura even touches him.

I Love Lisa - S4-E15

Continuity mistake: When Homer and Bart are watching a clip of Sideshow Mel on wowee sauce and Bart then says "I'd give anything to go to that show", he has nothing in his hand. The shot cuts to Homer and he then says "I'd sell my first born son" and then the shot cuts back to Bart. When the shot cuts back to Bart, a Buzz cola can has appeared in his hand out of nowhere. (00:08:20)

Mr. Plow - S4-E9

Revealing mistake: When Lynda Ronstat is talking about making a spanish version of Barney's Plow King theme, Barney says "Yeah you do that" and when he does, we see the back of his jacket and the words Plow King are backwards. (00:17:20)

Last Exit to Springfield - S4-E17

Continuity mistake: When the dentist shows Ralph the Big Book of British Smiles, he first shows him a picture of Sherlock Holmes with horrid teeth and all of his teeth are there. When Ralph starts getting terrified of it, it shows the same picture, but this time one of his teeth on the bottom right hand corner of his mouth is missing.

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.

Tree House of Horror X - S11-E4

[The Simpsons are driving down a road as fast as possible.]
Homer: Dear God, it's Homer. If you really love me you'll save my life now.
[The gas needle immediately drops to empty and the car stops.]
Homer: D'oh.
