Nothing More Than Feelings - S1-E7

Other mistake: In this episode, Jill drove the Chevy Nomad with the oil light on. This caused Tim to rebuild the motor. In the shot with Tim in the garage, working on the motor, a Ford motor is shown.

To Build Or Not To Build - S2-E23

Other mistake: When Randy and Brad complete the magic trick and open up the trunk they are pointing it towards the audience for us to see. But Jill reacts as if she is seeing it too, which, based on where she is sitting and where the trunk is open would be impossible. She would have had to get up and go look or have the trunk turned 90° to make it work. Neither happens.

A House Divided - S4-E18

Other mistake: Heidi turns off the gas, saying that the shutoff valve has to be moved perpendicular to the pipe to shut off the gas, which is correct. But Heidi actually moves it parallel to the pipe, which turns on the gas.

Future Shock - S6-E2

Other mistake: Al's tricycle catches on fire but when the fire is put out the tricycle is much more scorched and mangled in a way that would have been impossible with the short time the fire was lit and the area it actually burned.

What a Drag - S7-E16

Other mistake: When Tim and Jill are staking out in Wilson's backyard to see which of their sons hid the marijuana, Jill mentions that it's only 10° outside. However, their breath is never visible throughout the scene.

Tanks For The Memories - S5-E15

Continuity mistake: The boys had different haircuts in the previous episode. Randy had just gotten a haircut, and in this episode, the kids are younger and have their longer hair right back. (00:05:50)
