E. Peterbus Unum - S2-E18

Continuity mistake: When Peter is singing, he stops and starts dancing. Mr Weed is directly behind him, then in the next shot of other people dancing, he is with them. Then in the next shot, he is behind Peter again. (00:11:35)

E. Peterbus Unum - S2-E18

Continuity mistake: In the Can't Touch This parody song with Peter, he chains Joe to the back of the truck with a chain. Between shots, the handle of the door changes from grey to a silvery white, the chain itself changes from grey to black, and the panels under the chain and handle go from grey to a darker bluish-grey colour. (00:11:45)

Continuity mistake: When Chris tells Peter that some guy won't let him go to school, Peter turns so that his front doorway threshold is to his right. But then, when it cuts to the next shot with Peter asking "him and what army?", suddenly his back is to the doorway again. (00:14:07)

Continuity mistake: In the kitchen after Petoria is cut off from the world, the fridge is shown with two notes on the freezer door next to the handle with scribbled writing on them. After Stewie takes a dump in his newspaper diaper, it cuts to a different closer angle, and now the writing on the notes has vanished. Usually in animation, details being lost in a further out shot is normal; however, this is details lost in a closer angle. (00:17:42)

Continuity mistake: At the pool party with the other world leaders in Joe's pool, Achmed is cooking on the grill and Stewie is standing on a blue stool next to him. Moments later, in a closer shot of Achmed, the stool Stewie is on is suddenly brown with grey legs. (00:18:18 - 00:18:58)

Other mistake: When Peter sits down with Mayor West to discuss terms, West says, "Thank you all for coming." As he does, he tilts his head down and the bottom half of his nose disappears until he moves his head again. (00:20:38)

Continuity mistake: In the first shot of the pool party, Peter's "President" sash is draped from his left shoulder with the visible letters "n" and "t" in reversed positions. In the following shots the sash is draped correctly from Peter's right shoulder.

Continuity mistake: When Peter's great-great uncle, Ulysses S. Griffin, is with Robert E. Lee, all the Confederate soldiers have their straps over their left shoulders, and note the buttons on their uniform coats. However, in the closeup two soldiers have their straps over their right shoulders, and the buttons are on the opposite side of their uniform coats.

The Story on Page 1 - S2-E19

Deliberate mistake: At the start of the episode, the family is watching a show called "Sherry and the Anus." When Sherry opens the door and walks in, there is a Star Wars poster hanging above Anus' dresser. However, it doesn't resemble Star Wars at all. The font is all wrong, the lettering is the wrong colour, and the ship on the front is some generic-looking spy plane and nothing like a Star Wars fighter. This was obviously done to avoid any copyright issues, as this was before the Lucas partnership later on. (00:00:07)

Continuity mistake: The family is standing outside the gate of Brown University, and their car is on the left, parked just off to the side behind Meg. In the next shot, the car vanishes. You can tell where it was supposed to be by the position of the white lines on the road, meaning no, it's not just off camera. Where the line is shown, the front of the car should be visible behind Meg. (00:01:19)

Continuity mistake: After Peter tries to bribe the admission at the University, he, Lois, and Meg sit down on a waiting couch as Lois says she had friends who got shot at her old school. There is a painting of a yellow building on the wall above and behind them. It has 8 windows at the top. In the next shot, it just has 7 windows at the top. Also, the bushes and road are drawn a little differently with less road visible through the bottom bush. (00:02:08)

Continuity mistake: Stewie enters the Chemistry Lab at the university and is stopped by a professor. In the background is an anatomy diagram of a human body. Between shots, lots of the detail disappears, including a blue circle, some organs, several lines of text, and the orange and green circles change size, shape and position. (00:03:24)

Lois: Hello?
Peter: I can't take the trash out today, I'm working late at the office.
Lois: The caller ID says you're calling from the kitchen. In fact I can see you.
Peter: [Edging sideways.] OK, can you see me now?
Lois: No.
Peter: Now I am at the office.

Grumpy Old Man - S10-E9

Trivia: One of the cutaway gags is about someone who survived 9/11 because he was late for work watching late night football. Seth MacFarlane missed his flight, which would have been one of the flights to crash into the World Trade Center, because his agent had given him the incorrect departure time. The plane was scheduled to depart at 7:45 AM and his agent had told him it was departing at 8:15 AM. By the time Seth arrived the boarding had been closed and he was told he would have to catch a later flight.

Chosen answer: It's a play on words. Instead of eggs Benedict, he says Megs Benedict.

Ssiscool

Answer: It's because the sauce Carter drinks is the same sauce they put on eggs Benedict, so when he puked on her she was covered in the sauce.
