Brave New World (1) - S7-E22

Continuity mistake: After Eric pulls the doll from out of the grill, he closes the lid. The lid then alternates between being open and closed throughout the rest of the scene. (00:03:44 - 00:06:15)

Hometown Hero - S3-E5

Continuity mistake: Shawn steals some fruit just before the interview starts. He empties the whole bowl into his backpack. When the interview starts, the bowl is full again, with the exact same fruits that were just taken by Shawn.

Easy Street - S4-E12

Continuity mistake: In this episode Alan says that Eric woke him up on his 16th birthday to get his driver's license and it's a tradition for the men of their family to go with their fathers and get their license, however in season 1 when Eric does get his license, he says that Amy and Alan let him go off with Jason to get his license and there was no celebration.

I Ain't Gonna Spray Lettuce No More - S4-E3

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of this episode, Cory asks Alan for money for his class photo. When Alan asks what grade Cory is in now, Cory says 11th. However, at the end of the previous season, Cory had just finished 9th grade (he and Shawn are both 15) and he spent his summer traveling the country with Eric. He should be in 10th grade, not 11th. This is further complicated later in the season, when he turns 16 and gets his driver's license. If he was in 11th grade, he would have already turned 16 and gone through driver's ed.

The Fugitive - S1-E17

Continuity mistake: When Cory is getting food for Shawn, he's piling meat loaf onto his plate. There are three pieces, one on top of the other two, then they cut to a wide shot and back to a close up of Cory, and it's just one larger piece.

My Baby Valentine - S6-E16

Continuity mistake: Just after Cory talks about being a "baby shower machine", Morgan walks past him. There's then a quick shot of Alan and then we see Cory again, and again Morgan walks past him. It's not the same shot from two different angles, as Cory is acting differently each time.

Angela's Ashes - S7-E21

Continuity mistake: When Cory is saying to Shawn "Are you going to nice yourself out of the girl you love?", Shawn's right foot is resting on his left knee, and his left hand is on the foot. When the shot changes, his left foot is now resting on his right knee, and his left hand is resting on his left thigh. (00:05:06)

As Time Goes By - S7-E20

Continuity mistake: When Cory enters the noir world and uncovers Topanga's corpse, you can see her left hand is draped over her stomach. After the noir version of Cory confesses to the murder, the cloth covering her body is now suddenly covering more of her torso, including the left hand. (00:17:53 - 00:19:15)

Show generally

Continuity mistake: The age gap between Eric and Cory decreases as the series progresses. At the start of the show, Cory is in 6th grade and Eric is a high school sophomore, meaning they are four years apart, give or take a few months. By season 3, Cory is in 9th grade (confirmed by dialogue mentioning that Shawn, who is in the same grade as Cory, is 15 years old), and Eric is a senior, leading to an age gap of three years. The first episode of season 4 takes place a couple months after the end of season 3, with Eric and Cory returning from a summer Road Trip, but just two episodes later, Cory mentions that he is in 11th grade, while Eric is still barely out of high school, leading to an age gap of two years.

What I Meant To Say - S3-E3

Mr. Williams: I'm here to teach you to find the truth in the media. Because there is a difference between what they say, and what is real.
Mr. Turner: That was very good. Watch this: Hunter, what did he just say?
Shawn: Something about Israel.

Show generally

Question: Topanga said in one episode that she has a weird middle name, did she ever say what it is?

Answer: Topanga's middle name is never specified. Considering her sister's name is Nebula Stop-the-war Lawrence, Topanga's is probably something equally unusual.
