My Quarantine - S4-E16

Other mistake: When the Janitor plays with Kelso 'double or nothing' for tossing the cotton ball a second time in the jar, Todd tells Kelso he now owes him $600, in the end it was $700. This isn't a 'double or nothing' amount of money the Janitor could generate. They started with $5, so the count would be 5 - 10 - 20 - 40 - 80 - 160 - 320 - 640 - 1280 and so on.

My Roommates - S4-E18

Continuity mistake: When Carla and Turk tell JD that he is around them all the time, it cuts to a scene with Carla and Turk in the tub while JD is using the toilet. It cuts back to JD saying "And here I thought that was a lovely evening" while he is holding a bowl of popcorn in his hands. When it cuts the bowl is suddenly on the table.

My Boss's Free Haircut - S4-E20

My Boss's Free Haircut - S4-E20

Revealing mistake: When Carla and Elliot are walking through the graveyard, Elliot falls into an open grave. After she has fallen off the bottom of the screen, you can see her ankle flick up in the bottom of the picture, showing that she actually just fell down on the floor during shooting.

My Boss's Free Haircut - S4-E20

Continuity mistake: After Elliott falls into the grave, she tries to pull herself out by placing both hands on the edge of the grave and jumping.
