There's Something About Paulie - S2-E16

Other mistake: Peter walks into the living room and finds Lois on the couch. Just after he asks her if she's been drinking, she starts to sit up and then suddenly the entire episode starts bobbing up and down. Like the show is on a camera bouncing in a car. This lasts a couple of seconds then stops. I checked on Disney+, Hulu, and WCO. Each of these had the same camera jitters in that moment. (00:00:45)

Continuity mistake: During the taxi cutaway, the guy talking on the mic is in a booth with papers on the walls. The shot cuts to the guy in the white shirt at the table next to it, and suddenly the booth walls and papers are much larger. Also, the paper directly behind this guy goes from only partly covering the wall to nearly covering it fully and being end to end. (00:01:30)

Deliberate mistake: At the dealership, Lois pops the hood of the red car and shows there is no engine in the vehicle. She pulls out a paper that just has a drawing of an engine. Yet moments later, Peter is able to start the car and rev a nonexistent engine and drive it a couple of feet before the wheel falls off. (00:02:40)

There's Something About Paulie - S2-E16

Continuity mistake: During scenes with Paulie, in a few shots the two rings Paulie is wearing on his left hand disappear/reappear, and the mole on Paulie's face also vanishes in a couple of shots. Some examples: (1) After Paulie's remark about a coke mule, Lois says, "Peter, living room," then Paulie's mole and rings disappear. (2) While Paulie and Peter are sitting on the swing, Paulie's two rings vanish when the swing collapses. (3) Following the hail of bullets, when Paulie turns and falls onto the puddle, the rings are gone. (00:12:00)

Continuity mistake: When Peter tells Lois he accidentally put a hit out on her after she sees Big Fat Tony dead in the newspaper, the paper is set on the table in front of Peter by a yellow box. During this conversation, the paper and the box keep disappearing or moving positions between shots over and over. Also, Peter's cup disappears in a couple of shots. (00:14:00)

Other mistake: Peter follows the mobster to the "pet store" and is standing on the sidewalk when the mobster gets out of his car and goes inside. The street here is comically disproportionately small. So much so that when Peter walks across it, he clears the entire road in two steps. (00:14:40)

Plot hole: If the groom didn't know who Lois was but had a picture of her, how could he have known that she was at the wedding so he could place the bomb in the blue sedan? If he had put the bomb in their car while they were still at home, they both would have been blown up. So this means he placed the bomb in the car at the wedding. He didn't know however that Lois was there until the end, where he caught up with them and told them not to start the car. Had he known earlier, he wouldn't have been arguing with his bride about the hit occurring during their honeymoon. (00:20:05 - 00:21:35)

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.

Trivia: A Quahog is another name for a clam, thus all the jokes and places in town (like the drunken clam bar) the show makes reference about.

Brian Sings & Swings - S4-E19

Question: In this episode Meg pretends to be a lesbian, when she calls herself a 'mega lesbian' it shows four other 'mega lesbians' singing something on deep voices. What song are they singing? Is it a real song?

strikeand

Chosen answer: It's a real song called "Elvira". Originally by Dallas Fraizer in '66, however, this version seems to be the Oak Ridge Boys cover version. However, the mega lesbians skip the verse and just sing the chorus after the opening line.
