Continuity mistake: This episode establishes that Tim is three years older than Jill. However, in the episode "Ex Marks The Spot" (Season 2), Tim said that he broke up with Stacy after high school, then met Jill at college. And Jill wouldn't date him unless he promised that everything was over with Stacy. If Jill is three years younger, she would have been only fifteen when Tim broke up with Stacy, not at college.
The Karate Kid Returns - S6-E14
Other mistake: When Tim and Wilson are talking about The Beach Boys song lyrics, Wilson says he wrote a book called 'The Psycho-Physiological Indices of Amorous Connections Among Termites of the Southwest' that sold four copies. In an earlier episode called Wilson's Girlfriend, the woman Wilson dates also says she wrote the same book with the same number of copies sold.
Deliberate mistake: Tim babysits his 4-year-old niece in the season 7 episode Say Goodnight, Gracie, but in season 8, which takes place the following year, Gracie and her twin sister Claire have been aged up to around 8 years old.
Character mistake: Jill mentions that her parents were married for 50 years, and her mother corrects her and says it was 51 years and 7 months. However, the season 6 episode Jill And Her Sisters was about the aforementioned ladies planning their parents' 50th wedding anniversary, and the penultimate episode of the season, Taps, saw Jill's father die a few months after the former episode. Since only a few months had passed, there's no way Jill's parents could have been married for 51 years and 7 months.
