Married... with Children

Banking on Marcy - S8-E5

Other mistake: Peg reads from a headline saying "[Marcy] announces NBC fall schedule, people still disappointed." But the text below it reads "State officials..." showing the text doesn't belong with that headline. Also when you see each headline the article is the same for each one.

Other mistake: Al's and Peggy's birthdates are around 1948/1950, respectively. Supposedly, Al married Peggy after she got pregnant the day of his 4 touchdowns in high school in 1966. How could Kelly have been born in 1971?

Oldies but Young 'Uns - S5-E17

Other mistake: Just before Charlie and his son leave Peg says "Charlie, my watch". Implying that he took it off her wrist. Yet during the whole scene she didn't have a watch on her wrist. It appears in his hand out of nowhere.

Amy Emerick Tice

Show generally

Other mistake: Depending on the season the Bundys' address is 9764 Jeopardy Lane. Season 4 the address is 9674. But in the opening credits when Steve is shown on his porch the address is 9674. (00:00:20)

The Proposition - S7-E26

Other mistake: Al eats a slice of pizza. But if you look in the box there's a small piece taken from the center of the pizza. He picked up a full size slice with crust.

Peggy Loves Al, Yeah Yeah, Yeah - S2-E17

Other mistake: When Bud goes upstairs with his fake bag of "Valentines" (actually a bag filled with bottles), Kelly begins to look through some from her bag. Behind her, you can see David Faustino (Bud) purposely moving slowly up the stairs because Christina Applegate (Kelly) is about to find the envelope that is addressed to Bud.

Peggy Turns 300 - S4-E19

Other mistake: When Peggy throws the final ball, all the pins fall except for one and the sweep bar comes down. It is then shown wobbling down without the sweep bar in play. This is an illegal drop and would not count under any PBA sanctioned tournament or in any bowling alley in the United States. The bowling alley would credit her with a 299, and Al would have a chance to get a 300.

Life's a Beach - S3-E21

Other mistake: Al, Peg, and the kids go to the beach. Steve and Marcy are sitting not too far away from them, yet they never interact with each other. They had to see each other they just act like they don't notice each other.

Un-Alful Entry - S7-E20

Other mistake: The Bundys never lock their front door the entire series, but a burglar has to use a crow bar to open the sliding glass door out back.

Tis Time to Smell the Roses - S7-E23

Other mistake: When Al talks about the man who bought the shoe store he wanted to buy, he says the same guy bought the store he used to work at and got his old job back. However, Gary is a woman who owned the store before this episode and again afterwards for the remaining episodes. So it couldn't have been bought by a man because Gary the woman still owns it.

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.
