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.

Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode, when Tim and Jill are cleaning up from the wedding, you can see where the fence was.

You can even see that it is laid down in strips on Wilson's side, with multiple seams running towards the house.

Revealing mistake: When Tim gives Jill the framed photo of the two of them on their way to the Doobie Brothers concert, you can tell Tim has just been photoshopped into an existing picture of Patricia Richardson, as he is slightly out of focus despite the fact that they are standing next to each other. (00:13:24)

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.
Continuity mistake: When Tim slams on the brakes at the red light, his hand ends up on Alex's right breast, and she is facing forward and glancing down at his hand. When Jill looks at the corresponding traffic ticket that Tim got, the photo shows his hand is now in her decollete area and she is looking directly at him. (00:08:05 - 00:10:47)
Answer: No the guy sent in a picture of himself because he thought he looked like Al. So they brought him on the show as his brother.
