Married... with Children

You Better Watch Out - S2-E13

Revealing mistake: When the mall Santa lands in the Bundys' back yard, everybody looks toward the back, and when Al looks forward, he cracks a smile although he's upset about the matter. Ed O'Neil admitted he couldn't contain his laughter.

Movie Show - S7-E21

Revealing mistake: When everyone is standing at the snack bar eating all the food you can plainly see all the candy boxes are empty and already open even though they were sealed when the cashier put them on the counter.

Driving Mr. Boondy - S9-E2

Visible crew/equipment: When Al gets up to answer the phone near the start of the episode, a microphone can be seen above his head which then moves out of shot. More easily noticed if the episode is watched on a widescreen TV. (00:03:55)

Poppy's By the Tree (1) - S2-E1

Factual error: At the end of the episode, the killer shoves a long machete up through the mattress. This isn't possible considering he's under a bed and there's not enough vertical space to shove a machete straight up.

He Thought He Could - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: When young Al reaches forward with his left arm to take the book that Miss Degroot wants to give to him, she quickly pulls back but young AL still has his arm raised. In the next shot, his hand his down by his side.

Take My Wife, Please - S8-E7

Continuity mistake: When Al comes home, he finds a written message from Peg saying that she, Kelly and Bud are at Marcy's house performing the Village People. However, Peggy couldn't have written the message because when they agreed to play the Village People, they went over to Marcy's immediately. (00:04:50 - 00:06:10)

Al Goes to the Dogs - S10-E21

Continuity mistake: Al enters the house at 3am with Lucky. It is sleeting outside and there is snow all over the front and backyard. Later that day, Al is in the backyard, no snow to be seen, and grass and bushes in full bloom.

Shoeway to Heaven - S9-E1

Plot hole: When Dominique is on TV, she says she got the shoes from Al's store. Then the Amish guy comes out to confirm she broke her leg from the shoe he made. Al says yes. She got the shoes way before Al knew he had no more shoes and before they even hired the Amish guy. How can she break her leg from his shoe if he wasn't hired and making them yet?

You Gotta Know When to Fold 'Em (2) - S4-E17

Plot hole: Al hasn't got enough cash to pay for a pizza and Peggy overmaxes his credit cards. But somehow he manages to buy three flight tickets for Chicago-Las Vegas. Where'd the money come from? Also, when his card is declined, he calls the pizza shop back (they call him "no tip" Bundy), and somehow they know where Peggy maxed out the credit card. (00:05:15)

Twisted - S11-E1

Visible crew/equipment: When Marcy announces they only have time to grab their most precious personal possessions Kelly notes her own, and in the next shot the boom mic makes a happy appearance at the top of the screen. (00:07:45)

Super Grover

Who'll Stop the Rain - S4-E13

Visible crew/equipment: After Al fixes the roof and Peg reminds him to fix the TV antenna, when Al says he can do it, a shadow can be seen moving across the blue bucket on the table. (Probably a crew member or equipment.)

Peg: Hi honey. Did you miss me?
Al: With every bullet so far.
