Mr. Garrison's Fancy New Vagina - S9-E1
Continuity mistake: When Garisson tries getting his balls back from Kyle, a scene is shown in which a man in a suit is singing, prior to the basketball game Kyle is allowed to play, because of his negroplasty. In the background are all the basketball players, including Kyle, who should be black now. However the shot shows him in his previous white form, in his old jersey. (00:18:15)
Simpsons Already Did It - S6-E7
Character mistake: Butters says that he watched "all 132 episodes" of the Simpsons; at the time this episode aired, 291 episodes of the Simpsons had been produced and aired.
Two Guys Naked in a Hot Tub (2) (a.k.a. Melvins (2)) - S3-E8
Character mistake: When Pip, Butters, and Dougie play the Wickershams and Decklers game, Pip stated that they all fall down after he says "Ch'rah." However, they fell down after Pip said "Tally-Ho", not "Ch'rah."
Factual error: In the casino, during the roulette game, one of the spin results lands on 2 red. All roulette games have the no. 2 being black.
The Tooth Fairy's TATS 2000 - S4-E1
Other mistake: Cartman is excited because the "tooth fairy" left him two dollars in exchange for a tooth. When he holds up the two bills, they are identical. Both have the same serial number.
Two Guys Naked in a Hot Tub (2) (a.k.a. Melvins (2)) - S3-E8
Character mistake: Before Pip, Butters, and Dougie play Wicker-shams and Decklers, Pip explains that they all fall down after he yells "Ch'rah." However, when they boys are playing, they all fall down after Pip yells "Tally-Ho."
A Very Crappy Christmas - S4-E17
Continuity mistake: Cartman is already on stage, but in a next shot he arrives and Stan and Kyle ask him what he's you doing there. (00:16:58)
With Apologies to Jesse Jackson - S11-E1
Factual error: In the bonus round, the automatic letters R, S, T, L, E came up and Randy chose "B, N, G, O" as his 4 letters to add. In the real Wheel of Fortune game, the automatic letters that come up are R, S, T, N, L, E. "N" is always included automatically so it would never be picked by the contestant. This was obviously done for the plot of the episode.
Continuity mistake: While Kyle is asleep in his bedroom the Triangle of Zinthar is on the dresser beside the framed photo, but in the next shot when the cut ceiling falls onto the floor the Triangle has vanished, then it reappears on the dresser where it is supposed to be. (00:07:40)
Continuity mistake: In the exterior shot of the Marsh house, before the family dinner scene, the door knob is at the right side of the door, but in the following shots that door knob is at the opposite side of the door. (00:10:00 - 00:11:50)
Continuity mistake: When Randy and Stan leave the dinner table Sharon tells them about her friend Abby, and there's a table beside the front door with two drawers, but when Randy opens the front door the table now has legs and the drawers are gone, then it reverts back. (00:11:30)
Continuity mistake: When Randy breaks into the trailer that has access to internet, the locked front door has a large "Red Cross Only" sign attached to the exterior side of the door, but when the guards unlock that door the large sign vanishes between shots. (00:18:20)
Continuity mistake: When the Broflovski doorbell rings Gerald opens the front door and there's only a door knob on the exterior side of the door, but when Randy steps inside the house a backplate has suddenly appeared behind the door knob. (00:02:10)
Continuity mistake: When the Marsh family show up at the Broflovskis in a panic, the front door's exterior door knob is at the left side of the door, but when both families decide to go to Starbucks the front door of the house opens the opposite way. (00:02:55)
Factual error: When the audience is shown waiting for the concert to start, a crescent moon is shown above the horizon with the curve facing away from the horizon. This is not possible as the curve of the crescent moon during darkness is always facing into the horizon.
Korn's Groovy Pirate Ghost Mystery - S3-E10
Character mistake: Cartman tells his mother that there are only 72 shopping days left until Christmas. Christmas is 55 days after Halloween.
Continuity mistake: Butters can be seen in the classroom when Mr. Mackey shows up to deliver the message from Cartman's mom. Butters is still supposed to be at the conversion camp.
Spooky Fish - S2-E15
Continuity mistake: When normal Cartman goes up to Stan's aunt and is vibrating, Cartman is shown with the boys together, then proceeds to go back to them from his "new chair."
Continuity mistake: When they're handing out roses for the second time, when Jimmy gets his rose, we can see Craig at his left, having one too. But in the next shot, when they tell the ones that didn't get a rose to go home, Craig doesn't have a rose and has been eliminated from the competition.
Suggested correction: Butters is always shown as being a bit dim and slow. As a kid it's easy for him to make a mistake in thinking that there was only 132 episodes.

That's why it's called a "character mistake"; also, Butters is certainly naive, but he's hardly what I would call "dim and slow."
