The Son Also Draws - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: When the Native Americans make ghost sounds at Peter and Lois scaring them out of the office, the chair on the right side of the screen is empty. It cuts to Peter and Lois turning to run out of the door for a split second, then back to the Native Americans in a different angle. Suddenly that chair that was empty now has an Native American in a grey suit sitting there. (00:15:44)

The Son Also Draws - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: In the car, Peter talks about how he shouldn't have had that prune smoothie. Suddenly their car has no rear window, and the ceiling of the car is completely different with lines going everywhere and extending back down over where the rear window used to be. (00:09:24)

The Son Also Draws - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: Peter picks up the phone to call the Scout leaders and points his finger up in the air. In the side shot, it's just his finger extended up, but when it cuts to a closer angle, suddenly his thumb is extended outward as well. (00:07:00)

The Son Also Draws - S1-E6

Continuity mistake: On the couch, Lois tells Peter that maybe Chris is the one that should be earning that badge. As she does, Peter's arm is down at his side and her hand is resting on it. It then cuts to his reaction and suddenly his arm is out in front of him with no time between shots.

I Never Met the Dead Man - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: When Peter comes back into the room after the TV comes on and is wanting to take the family to the folk festival, he stands at the end of the couch with his back to the window. You can see their front door off to the side behind him but not close enough. When it cuts to a different angle, suddenly the door is right behind him, then the window again when it cuts back.

Suggested correction: Usually this would be right, but it's evident by their positioning that Peter is actually driving his car right in the middle of the road on the dotted line and not staying in one lane. This is why the truck passes on the left to get in front and then the car on the right, both also getting centered on the dotted line.

Chitty Chitty Death Bang - S1-E3

Revealing mistake: After the manager of the arcade takes money from other customers and cancels Stewie's reservation, Peter and Chris start walking along a row of arcade machines. Here the background was just copy and pasted over again, as they walk by the same place twice, and start a third time before the scene changes. (00:07:35)

I Never Met the Dead Man - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: At the stop light, Meg starts racing a guy on a horse drawn carriage. When they leave the light, they are going down a road by a cliff side, and suddenly there are no lines in the road from the side angle. When it cuts to the carriage's wheel coming off, suddenly there is a dotted yellow line in the road by it. (00:03:17)

Death Has a Shadow - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: During the flash back at the ice cream store Peter's eyes change in size twice before he licks the ice cream and then one more time after he licks the ice cream before falling down.

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.
