He's Too Sexy for His Fat - S2-E17
Continuity mistake: When Stewie is eating chocolate cake, he shoves his head in it and covers himself in cake. However, when Peter walks in after having liposuction, all the cake has disappeared and Stewie is now completely clean. The bowl of flowers on the table is also gone. (00:11:40)
A Picture Is Worth 1,000 Bucks - S2-E11
Continuity mistake: When the hotel employee gives Peter the key to the room, the man's moustache turns yellow for a second.
Continuity mistake: In the flashback when Peter fights Ernie the Giant Chicken, Peter gets knocked off the top of an eighteen wheeler and grabs the second rung at the bottom of the truck's ladder. But when the truck driver sees the pair in his side view mirror, Peter is hanging off the top of the ladder. (00:02:00)
Continuity mistake: When Peter enters the cockpit and accidentally kills the pilots the cockpit looks small enough so that it could only fit Peter and the pilots in their seats. However, when he turns around to leave the cockpit looks big enough to fit an entire group of people.
Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater - S2-E1
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Lois goes down to the room where Peter is dancing, Peter is wearing blue pants. After he walks over to the door and greets her, he still has blue pants. The next shot of Lois and Peter dancing has him wearing his normal green pants, but after that it goes back to blue pants for the rest of the scene. (00:11:35)
Continuity mistake: After Lois accuses Stewie of peeing on the carpet, he asks her to bend down and slaps her with a glove. The glove remains in his hand in that cut, is still there when there is a wide shot of Peter, Stewie, Lois and Brian (you can just see it next to his trousers in his hand), but when it cuts back to Stewie and he starts on about "the outrages" etc, it is gone (the cut is instant, no time for him to put it back in his pocket). A common error, this one just struck me as strange, because the sandwich Stewie threw at Lois is there the entire scene. (00:03:35)
Continuity mistake: When Karen Black is first shown, her blue uniform is sleeveless, showing her white shirtsleeves. After a cut to the "Dawson's Creek" kids, Peter says "It was a movie in the seventies," and Black's outfit has sleeves. Later, when she is helping people off the plane, her uniform once again is sleeveless.
Continuity mistake: When Meg is putting down traps for Joe, she puts down a lot. Then when the Griffens leave and the giant rat comes, there are only a few. Then when Joe says "bring it on," there are a lot again. (00:11:00)
Continuity mistake: When Ulysses S. "Griffin" is chugging beer with Robert E. Lee, Ulysses wins. When he says "How's that Robert E. Lee," he puts the beer glass on his head. After Robert says, "Okay no more slaves, but we still don't have to read books," the glass is in Ulysses' hand. In the next shot it's on his head again. (00:10:05)
Continuity mistake: When Peter is on the phone talking to Death the color of the napkin on the table changes from red to a brownish color.
Continuity mistake: When Death is talking about how he wanted to be a wood nymph, he has no pillows, but in the next shot, he has a blue pillow.

Continuity mistake: In the scene where the Griffins are at the yacht club, Peter is telling a rat story. Before he talks about a steak, Lois' earrings are white, but right after they suddenly change to blue. (00:09:10)
Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater - S2-E1
Continuity mistake: When we first see the toy train under the floor, it has four carriages, but in the next shot, we see five carriages go past. (00:19:25)
Continuity mistake: The position of the hole on the leg of Meg's pants changes. In the scene where Meg is putting the mouse traps around Joe, the hole is on the right side. When they arrive at the house with Randy Newman and Meg is telling Peter that the Twinkee factory in Natick may not even exist, the hole is on the left side. This happens again throughout the episode. (00:10:55 - 00:12:30)
Continuity mistake: When the government people are looking at the missiles spelling 'Happy New Year', the 'Y' in 'Year' changes distinctly between shots. (00:06:50)
Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater - S2-E1
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Lois and Peter are at the historical auction, when Lois stops to talk to her friend the person standing next to her friend is wearing a green suit. In the very next shot he is wearing a black suit and vest.
Continuity mistake: In the end of the episode whilst the families are eating lunch at the picnic table there is a lot of plates of food and glasses on the table. Towards the end of the scene Brian says "I guess some mysteries are better left unsolved", there is a wide shot after he says this and every plate and glass from the table has disappeared. (00:21:25)
Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater - S2-E1
Continuity mistake: Just after Peter sings "Tonight I sleep alone", his position in relation to Lois drastically changes. (00:07:00)
He's Too Sexy for His Fat - S2-E17
Continuity mistake: Just before the pest control team leaves for the Griffins', we see the black team member holding a shotgun in his hand. After showing Logan in shot, it returns to the black member and he's now holding what looks to be an MP5 machine gun. In the following shot as he starts to slide down the pole, the gun is once again a shotgun. (00:04:00)
Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater - S2-E1
Continuity mistake: When Stewie is asking the waiter to cut his food (and drink), his eggs disappear between shots. (00:10:20)
Answer: Lacey Chabert was the actress who originally voiced Meg in early episodes. She left of her own accord due to being in school and other acting work; Seth MacFarlane has stated there was no tension with her leaving, but it makes for a handy joke for the show.
