Brian: Portrait of a Dog - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: The morning after the dog show, Peter and Chris are watching the news in the kitchen. Peter has a plate in front of him with two eggs and bacon on it. It is turned so that it makes almost a smiley face with the bacon towards his arm and the eggs crooked to the side. In the next shot from a different angle showing Lois in the kitchen, the plate rotates so now the egg and bacon smile is directly facing Peter. (00:10:27)

Brian: Portrait of a Dog - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: As the cop is telling Peter that leash laws are for Brian's own good, he points his pen at Peter with one hand, holding his clipboard in the other. It cuts to a different angle mid sentence and suddenly the cop is ripping the ticket out of his clipboard and his pen has vanished. (00:09:44)

Brian: Portrait of a Dog - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: After the dog show, the next establishing shot is the family car driving down the road past a fence, a blue building, and a pink building. Immediately after, the shot cuts to inside the car and suddenly the fence is gone, and the blue building has turned yellow with other buildings changing or appearing. (00:07:57)

Brian: Portrait of a Dog - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: At the dog show, Stewie starts to try to get out of his stroller before asking Meg to push him into a lake. The person on the right of the screen as he's struggling is only seen from the calves down, and is wearing blue pants and black shoes. After Meg gets up and says she'll find him a juice box, the people behind Stewie do not match up with this at all. And then in the next close up of him, there are identical legs in the same position as before, but now with black pants and white shoes. (00:06:42)

Brian: Portrait of a Dog - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: After Lois gives Brian a new collar for the show, he turns to thank her and in the reflection of the mirror, we see there is a cabinet and the shower curtain on the right side of the room. Then after she leaves the room and he puts eye drops in, the reflection is shown again and suddenly the cabinet and shower are on the left side of the room. (00:05:32)

Brian: Portrait of a Dog - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: After Peter said he tried to go on a game show, it cuts away to a scene of Jeopardy with the man at the stand holding a card. When it cuts to a close up of the man, the position of his fingers shift downward on the card, and his wrist is turned down. (00:04:14)

Baby Not On Board - S7-E4

Plot hole: Stewie gets out of the car seat and goes back to bed, leaving the blanket at the bottom of the seat. When they get to New York, Lois goes to get him out and realises he's gone. But when they started the trip the blanket was covering the entire seat to make it look like Stewie was still in it. So who ever "covered" him up knew he wasn't in the seat before they set off.

Barely Legal - S5-E8

Connie: You know, Meg, there's no dogs allowed. So, you're going to have to leave. But Brian can stay.
Brian Griffin: You know, Connie, I think I have this theory about why you're such a bitch.
Connie: Excuse me?
Meg Griffin: Brian, let's just go.
Brian Griffin: No, no, no, no, no, no. Hang on a minute, Meg, hang on. You see, Connie, you're popular because you developed early and started giving handjobs when you were twelve. But now you can't stand to look in the mirror because all you see is a whore. So you pick on Meg to avoid the inevitable realization that once your body's used up by age nineteen, you're gonna be a worn out chalky skinned burlap sack that even your own stepdad won't want. How is that? Am I in the ballpark?
[Connie runs off crying].

Answer: Mort is Jewish, and Walt Disney was said to be antisemitic. So it would make sense in a Disney universe all the inhabitants would share his supposed beliefs.
