54 mistakes
Starring: Amanda Bearse, Christina Applegate, Ed O'Neill, Katey Sagal
Genres: Comedy
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.
Poppy's By the Tree (2) - S2-E2
Revealing mistake: When Al is blocking the killer's axe with his suitcase and they struggle for it, it is obvious that the axe is made of rubber, as the handle keeps bending.
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.
The Bald and the Beautiful - S3-E7
Other mistake: At the end of this episode, there is a typo in the credits: "Directed by" is written twice.
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.)
Plot hole: When Dominique is on TV, she says she got the shoes from Al's store. Than 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?
Rock of Ages - S7-E9
Continuity mistake: In this episode, Al has taken on the persona of Axel Bundy, a rock star, so he can fly first class with older rock stars. But before they start a jam in the first class lounge pre-flight, one of them calls him AL when he's prodding Al to join the group when all they knew him by was the name Axel.
Continuity mistake: When Al Bundy drops the stiletto shoe into the fish tank, he reaches down into the tank to get it and his sleeve and hand are dry as he shows the shoe. Also, hardly any water drips off the shoe.
Plot hole: After Al steps out of the coyote doody he goes to Bud and puts an arm around him. Then they walk together towards the same spot - without looking down.
You Better Shop Around (2) - S5-E22
Revealing mistake: When Jefferson starts to shove the 'regulation Foodies cart,' it's very obvious that the actor makes the shaking movements of the cart by himself.
Revealing mistake: At the start of the episode, Peg is making popcorn on the stove. It's making a sizzling sound like she's really popping it but the burner isn't even on.
You Better Shop Around (2) - S5-E22
Revealing mistake: When Marcy is stacking the cartons of eggs in her arms, you can plainly see that they are empty cartons.
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.
I Can't Believe It's Butter - S10-E13
Revealing mistake: When Griff drinks the gravy right before calling "Butter", his glass is empty.
Continuity mistake: When the chain is cut with Marcy by Al to release him from the pole, later in the newscast in the background they are showing the cut chain. When on the news, it shows the chain was cut about a foot from the goal post. However when you watch the guy cut the chain for real, he cuts it flush with the pole.
Continuity mistake: When Kelly blows up the car near the end, when they show the car before it explodes, you see someone walking on the right side behind the car. Half a second later the car explodes and now someone is walking by the building on the left side of the screen. There wasn't anyone there before.
Girls Just Want to Have Fun (1) - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: Al is having his fridge repaired. He goes and gets a beer and closes the door. A few shots later the door is wide open without anyone going near it.
Revealing mistake: When Kelly is at the house of the crazy guy who made the couch, when they drink the cappuccino and he throws the cup, it's clear that the cups are just props as the drink stays in when it falls towards the camera.
Other mistake: Bud calls a late night sex hot line which is a 1 900 number yet he only pushes 6 digits on the phone.
You Better Shop Around (2) - S5-E22
Continuity mistake: The manager gives Jefferson a "wobbly" cart to use, but for the rest of the episode it's a normal, fast moving cart.
