That '70s Show

The Career Day - S1-E18

Continuity mistake: When Kitty comes downstairs to give the gang cookies, she tells Eric that she picked out an outfit for him to wear on career day. He then turns and mouths the words "Help me." In the next shot you can see Jackie sitting on Kelso's lap when in the previous episode, she broke up with him. In the next shot she is standing behind him. (00:01:00)

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)

Punk Chick - S1-E22

Other mistake: Jackie and Kitty are baking a pie in the kitchen and Kelso walks in. Jackie and Kelso have an awkward encounter as if they are separated, but they got back together at prom.

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)

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: This episode (production code 120) was filmed before the "Water Tower" episode (production code 123). It was just aired out of order. If you watch it in the right order, there is no mistake.

Suggested correction: Eric said, "Do you remember when we painted the pot leaf on the Water Tower?" Hyde said, "Vandalism isn't a good reason to stay." Eric said, "We wouldn't do it without him, meaning vandalism."

That's not what was said at all. Eric said, "Remember? We were gonna paint that pot leaf on the Water Tower?" Hyde then says, "You can do that without me."

Punk Chick - S1-E22

Revealing mistake: While cuddling in the car Donna tells her boyfriend that she isn't wearing a bra when it is obvious that she is - at one stage when she leans toward him her sweater tightens across her back and the shoulder strap and clasp of her bra is outlined.

The Pill - S1-E17

Visible crew/equipment: When Jackie tells Eric that she can really use a friend right now, in the next shot facing Eric just as he says, "Okay, well, good luck with that," the camera and crew member wearing a blue shirt can be seen at the left side of the screen. (00:01:00)

Super Grover

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.

Hyde Moves In - S1-E24

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Kelso enters Jackie's room (the second time) when she is sick, she throws the teddy bear at the door. When Kelso enters there is a shot of the bear in front of him at his feet. The scene changes to only show him from the waist up (he never moves) and then changes to a longer shot where he is still seen. The bear, once at his feet, is nowhere to be seen. The shot then changes to Jackie and back to the longer shot of Kelso. The bear is now behind Kelso's feet.

The '70s Pilot - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Red throws the keys to the Vista Cruiser to Eric, you can see he (Eric) catches them with both hands clasped together, then the camera cuts to show Red and Kitty (with the back of Eric's head) you see now that his right hand is clenched in the air, then it cuts again and his hands are clasped together again. He could not have moved his hands that quick.

The '70s Pilot - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Eric gets the keys to the Vista Cruiser, just after he catches them, you can see that the door to the living room is wide open, but before when Red and Kitty were telling him the responsibilities of owning a car, it is closed. No one had gone through the door during the entire scene.

Time Is on My Side - S7-E1

Red Foreman: Steven, when are you moving out?
Hyde: Soon.
Red Foreman: How's your girlfriend?
Hyde: Shallow as hell.
Red Foreman: Job?
Hyde: Dead-end.
Red Foreman: Future?
Hyde: Bleak.
Red Foreman: Kitty, feed the boy.
[Kitty takes Eric's plate and gives it to Hyde].

Eric's Burger Job - S1-E5

Trivia: In the fifth episode of the first season, Donna is left alone to babysit her little sister Tina. Both Tina and Valerie, Donna's older sister, were written off the show, much the same way as Richie's older brother Chuck, on Happy Days, or Laura's younger sister Judy, on Family Matters.

More trivia for That '70s Show

Chosen answer: He isn't. Time moves slowly in the show because they didn't want it to turn into "That '80's Show". In the first episode, he say's he's 17 but the second episode was his 17th birthday so he must have been 16. The first 12 episodes are set in 1976, the next 2 seasons are set in 1977, the next 3 seasons are set in 1978, and the remaining shows take place in 1979 with the final show on Dec 31, 1979 when Eric must be 20 as he turned 17 in 1976.
