That '70s Show

Thanksgiving - S1-E9

Factual error: The scene where Kitty is making peanut butter celery for Thanksgiving appetizers; she is using Skippy brand peanut butter and the packaging is not from the 70's, it's the current packaging. (00:05:10 - 00:06:05)

Show generally

Factual error: In the intro theme, most of the cars in the background are newer then the set time period. About halfway, you see an at least 1997 Ford F-150 pickup drive by the left windows, not manufactured yet.

Romantic Weekend - S3-E16

Factual error: When Mrs. Foreman gives Fez and Hyde Snack-Packs after they are caught trying to steal beer, they are in clear plastic containers. From 1968-1984, Snack Packs were in cardboard containers with a tin bottom and a tin pop top. From 1984-1990 they were in plastic containers, but not clear ones. It was not until 1990 that Hunts introduced the clear plastic containers.

Who Are You - S6-E15

Factual error: In this episode, when Donna and Jackie are arguing about who is going to go outside, Jackie is seen holding a box of Chips Ahoy cookies. The logo seen on the box was used in the late 90s and early 2000s, rather that the logo used in the 1970s. (00:17:30)

Prom Night - S1-E19

Factual error: In the scene where Kitty and Midge are talking about work there is a box of Krispy Kreme doughnuts on the counter. The logo that is on the box was not used on Krispy Kreme boxes until the mid 80's.

Let's Spend the Night Together - S7-E2

Factual error: After Kelso gets the call that his girlfriend's water had broken and runs out of the room, Fez answers the phone. In the background there are several license plates on the wall, one of which is an Indiana "Amber Waves of Grain" design, which was first issued in 1993.

Jason Sieberg

Everybody Loves Casey - S4-E26

Factual error: The gang keeps referring to the theme park 'Great America' as "Six Flags." Up until the 80's the park was actually Marriott's Great America. There is no other Six Flags theme park in the area. - from Wikipedia "Marriott Corporation began construction on the park in 1974, and opened it in 1976 as "Marriott's Great America". In 1984, the park was purchased by Six Flags Corporation, becoming the 7th Six Flags park."

Canadian Road Trip - S3-E23

Factual error: A map of Canada appears behind the guys as they're being questioned by the Mounties. The territory of Nunavut, which was not officially drawn until the year 2000, appears on the map. It definitely did not exist in 1978. (00:18:45)

nadz

Canadian Road Trip - S3-E23

Factual error: The city of Winnipeg is spelled incorrectly on a road sign that appears while they are at the border, spelled 'Winnepeg'. (00:09:35 - 00:10:10)

It's All Over Now - S7-E15

Factual error: Sizzling Sara is doing her live radio broadcast in front of a rack of magazines. One of the magazines is a Robin comic book. The series of Robin comics that used that logo began in 1993, 14 years after the episode takes place. (00:15:35)

Captain Defenestrator

Moon Over Point Place (1) - S2-E26

Factual error: In one scene towards the end of the episode, Hyde is reading MAD Magazine in the Hub when Jackie interrupts him. He says he is in the middle of reading "Smokey and the Band-Aid," MAD's parody of "Smokey and the Bandit." However, the issue he has is June 1976, and the film was not released until May 1977.

Son and Daughter - S8-E14

Factual error: When Donna and Randy are in Eric's bedroom, Randy is playing with Eric's toy lightsaber. However, the blade is green. No green lightsaber toys were produced until after the release of "Return of the Jedi", which occurred in 1983. Moreover, the handle is the modern style, not the vintage.

LorgSkyegon

The Career Day - S1-E18

Visible crew/equipment: In the scene in Bargain Bob's where Donna is talking to Bob, the end of the set and lights can be seen in the reflection of metal cookware that Bob is tying balloons to. (00:07:50)
