Not in My Back Hoe - S4-E8

Corrected entry: Hank finds Dale and Bill in the hole and as he's rescuing them Hank says, "Well you haven't moved in about 50 hours?" Hank found out they were missing when the guy who rented the backhoe comes looking for it and Hank is surprised to find they have gone missing. Seems a bit odd no one noticed them missing or decided to report it over 2 days. Whilst Bill lives alone and maybe no one would have noticed, Dale's wife (Nancy) and son would have noticed after that length of time. Despite Nancy still having an affair with Redcorn, there is too much evidence throughout the show's history that show both she and Joseph were constantly concerned when anything happened to Dale.

Lummie

Correction: As seen in other episodes, Dale does go on adventures and trips without always bothering to inform Nancy first. She may be getting concerned after fifty hours, but not enough to panic yet, knowing Dale as she does. Also, just because we don't see something happening, does not mean that it never did. She or Joseph could have expressed mild concern at any time without it being shown.

Correction: This is one of those mistakes that is due to watching the episodes out of order. This episode (production code 4ABE09) was produced before "Hillennium" (production code 4ABE10).

Bishop73

Correction: There's nothing I saw that indicated she was surprised Cotton lost his shins, or that she didn't know that. She's upset because she thinks all the stories Cotton told her were lies, and when Hank says "that fraud used to be 6'4"", her response was "so", as in what's your point. And the point of Hank's story wasn't Cotton lost his shins, but that he was walking again after 18 months. If anything, that's what Peggy was surprised at, or that Hank thinks his dad was heroic.

Peggy Hill: the Decline and Fall (2) - S4-E1

Corrected entry: Hank states that DiDi is three years older than Peggy. However, in the episode "Shins of the Father", he said that he went to kindergarten with Didi, which would make him three years older than Peggy as well. This is not possible, though, because he says in "Luanne Virgin 2.0" that he and Peggy were married when they were eighteen. (If he is three years older than Peggy and he was married to her at age eighteen, he would have married a fifteen-year-old).

Correction: She could have gone to school late. Kindergarten isn't mandatory in the US.

I don't think Didi could have gone to school three years late, though. That would make her twenty-one years old when she graduated from high school, even if she didn't fail a year.

It's quite possible that she only started kindergarten one year late. Then she failed other grades and had to repeat them. The repeated grades would cause her to graduate at age twenty-one. The rules for each school are different, but at my high school, a student could keep attending until age twenty-one.

People have graduated at age 21 or higher in the past. There's no law stating that one can only be in school until the age of 18. Just because YOU doubt it doesn't mean it couldn't have happened.

Aisle 8A - S4-E5

Corrected entry: After Peggy finds out about Connie experiencing her first period, Peggy takes Bobby to Whataburger. If you look at Bobby's drink whilst they are eating it changes from the left to the right of the tray in almost every shot of the scene.

Lummie

Correction: Not true. The scene switches between looking at Bobby straight on and over his shoulder. In the different perspectives, it may look like the drink has switched, but actually it stays on Bobby's right side the whole time.

Bystand Me - S10-E2

Continuity mistake: While Hank, Peggy, and Bobby are asking for help picking up the papers with the dangerous ammonia and bleach recipe, a person in back of the group they are talking to that was originally wearing a dark red hat, red shirt, and blond hair switches to a pink, light blue shirt, and brown hair. A window also suddenly appears behind this individual, where there wasn't one before. (00:17:49 - 00:18:11)
