What a Dump - S5-E11

Corrected entry: When it is announced that Mama's block has been chosen for the new city dump, Iola states that she would have to move too. Being that Iola lives across the street she does not live on the same block as Mama and therefore would not be affected.

Correction: "Block" in this case is simply a synonym for "neighbourhood." As shown at the start of the episode, Mama hosted a "block party" - a community gathering. Therefore, the whole neighbourhood, including Iola, would be impacted.

More Power to You - S5-E16

Corrected entry: During the episode Mama's electricity is shut off. Toward the end of the episode the power comes back on and the "blender" comes on and everyone rejoices about the power being restored. The blender should still be running, but it's not. No one turned it off or unplugged it.

Randy DeShong

Correction: Bubba is seen getting up from the table going toward the blender when the power comes back on. The blender is then shut off out of view but it is clear that Bubba shut it off.

Vint and the Kids Move In - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Vint moves in, he stays in the basement. Mama, Fran, and Buzz all have a "bedroom." Sonya moves into Fran's studio. Then when Naomi thinks she's pregnant, they argue over where Vint and Naomi will move to instead of the basement. Fran says she won't give up her room, Buzz says his room is in the attic. Sonya says her room is microscopic. Thelma has the biggest room. Then on Mama's Birthday, she gets Buzz to help clean out of the attic, which obviously wasn't his room as he stated. Then, of course, after Buzz, Sonya, and Fran are all gone there's only room for Thelma and Bubba upstairs.
