I Am Peter, Hear Me Roar - S2-E8

Chitty Chitty Death Bang - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: After Lois says, "When Meg and Chris turned one I missed everything," it flashes back to Lois writing 'happy birthday Meg' on the cake, and there's wallpaper border at the top of the walls, but when Peter asks her what she's doing in the kitchen the wallpaper border is gone. The paper cups that Lois filled with punch also vanish, and the rolling pin, board, etc. suddenly appear. (00:11:30)
Ready, Willing, and Disabled - S3-E15
Continuity mistake: Right after Lois is telling Peter that he should go to Joe's house, you see a plate and a coffee mug. But right after the angel spirit holds the gun up to Peter's head, and he is walking away from the table, the plate and mug are gone.
Other mistake: When Peter and the gang are watching TV drinking beers, the TV doesn't have any cables on the back. So how has it got power or a TV signal? This mistake was later referenced in "Back to the Pilot." (00:04:16)

In which case, his tag is missing.

I agree, it's not his thumb because in the next shot of him in the same position, his tag is now there (or colored correctly) and his thumb isn't seen.

It looks like his thumb.
