The Road Trip to Harvard - S2-E4

Continuity mistake: When Lorelai returns to Stars Hollow she goes to Luke's, and as she takes a seat at the counter there's a glass domed cake platter (with what looks like pie) at the end of the counter, which promptly vanishes in the following shots. Also, the blue box of wax paper sheets moves to the opposite side of the hot cups on the counter, between shots. (00:37:55)

Nick & Nora/Sid & Nancy - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: During dinner, when Jess takes the beer from the fridge he walks out the kitchen's back door which has a lattice wall on the porch, and when Lorelai opens the same door, in the next exterior shot she's walking out the side living room door, onto the porch. (00:26:20)

Presenting Lorelai Gilmore - S2-E6

Continuity mistake: During the presenter's introductions at the start of the ball, there's a shot of Lorelai from behind while she's seated alone at the table and we see the glistening necklace around her neck, but in the following shot facing Lorelai as she turns her head toward her parents the necklace has vanished, then she gets up and as Lorelai walks toward Emily and Richard the necklace has reappeared.

Presenting Lorelai Gilmore - S2-E6

Continuity mistake: When Lorelai calls Chris to tell him about Rory's debut, she writes his new number on a gum wrapper. The shot changes to Rory. When it cuts to Lorelai again, she is reading the number from a notebook.

Like Mother, Like Daughter - S2-E7

Visible crew/equipment: When the guidance counselor introduces herself to Rory during lunch she tells Rory to meet with her after lunch, and when she walks away camera equipment is visible at the bottom left corner of the screen. Then, at the end of the episode, when Lisa asks Rory if she can join her for lunch, the camera equipment is visible again before it moves. (00:06:00 - 00:43:15)

Run Away, Little Boy - S2-E9

Visible crew/equipment: While Dean is watching the play rehearsal, when Tristan starts talking about the "first kiss" in the wideshots facing Dean, we can see the boom pole moving at the top right corner of the screen. The boom pole is not part of the student production. (00:33:30)

Run Away, Little Boy - S2-E9

Continuity mistake: Lorelei's casual date brings his parents into Luke's and even though the windows are covered and you can't see outside, the cash register is at the wrong end of the counter.

The Bracebridge Dinner - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: When Dean and Clara first arrive at the Inn and are shown talking to Rory, Luke and Jess arrive in the background and Luke removes his jacket. In the next shot his jacket is back on and he removes it again.

Trivia: In some episodes, Rory speaks Spanish (e.g when she is talking to her grandmother's maid). She speaks very poorly, typical "school-Spanish". This is just acting; Spanish is actually Alexis Bledel's first language. Her mother is from Mexico and her father is from Argentina.

More trivia for Gilmore Girls

Chosen answer: Lorelai and Christopher get married impulsively in Paris but they get divorced shortly after returning home. I don't know the exact number of days or weeks but they definitely weren't married for more than a couple of months.
