Continuity mistake: At the airport outside, Marcy yells at Jefferson and knees him. While she does that, there is a man wearing a white coat walking behind them. Camera instantly changes and there is no man at all in a white coat. In fact, there is now a woman wearing a white coat.
Poppy's By the Tree (1) - S2-E1
Continuity mistake: Bud asks to go down to the high school "tomorrow" to meet the man who met Andy Griffith. Earlier Al reads the events page in newspaper. The event was said to be "tonight."
She's Having My Baby (1) - S6-E1
Continuity mistake: In the prior episode, when Peggy tells Al she is pregnant, Jefferson just smiles at Al after she tells him. In this episode, at the beginning, when Peggy tells Al she is pregnant during the recap, Jefferson smiles at Al but also pats Al on the shoulder.
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.
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.
Visible crew/equipment: In the scene where the Bundys are riding around the city in their loaner Lincoln Town Car, you can see an unlit Klieg light on top of one of the buildings revealing that one of their rare outdoor locations is actually on the back lot.
Deliberate mistake: Why would Al have his Polk High football uniform in England?
Suggested correction: Al cherishes his memories as a high school football player. It's quite possible that he takes the uniform with him on some trips, especially when going to another country. I've known people who do this with items that are important to them; i.e. a jewellery box or a favourite picture of family. They feel better keeping the item with them, in case something happens at home while they are away.
Factual error: Griff's shown being strapped into the electric chair. Problem is Illinois had stopped using the electric chair and switched over to lethal injection in 1983.
Revealing mistake: When Bud is at the shoe store with Al, right after Bid says something about the woman with chicken wings, you see the flash from a camera.
Other mistake: The guys push Bud out of the line and to the back. When they do that, there is a guy with a black and yellow jersey on with the number 25 in it. There were more guys behind him in the line. A little later, Kelly returns to the line where Bud is. All a sudden that guy with the black and yellow jersey with the number 25 is the person right in front of Bud.
The Bald and the Beautiful - S3-E7
Other mistake: Al and Steve are using Dr fur for growing hair. After using it, Steve says it was recalled. Later in the show, Peg says she is going to the store to buy Dr Fur because it was the only thing that Buck would eat. If it was recalled it wouldn't be available to buy anymore in the store.
Continuity mistake: The outside view from the Bundy sliding doors/patio is different in the opening and most scenes from the shows. In fact, I can't think of any time it's the same.
Factual error: It seems unlikely Steve's bank or any bank would leave its vault open at night as they close around five or six.
Suggested correction: Steve is the bank manager and is closing up for the day. There is also a security guard sitting right by the door. And he has to unlock the door to let Al in. No mistake here.
The mistake is about leaving the vault door wide open instead of closing it. Not about Steve needing to unlock the front door to let Al in.
My point is Steve is closing the bank with a security guard there and the door is locked. So what if the vault is open? Steve just hasn't closed it yet.
Master the Possibilities - S2-E16
Factual error: A credit card company doesn't send random cards to just anyone. One comes for Buck. First of all you need a social security number, proof of income etc. And looking at what Al and Peg bought, it's an unlimited card.
Suggested correction: Decades ago (including the 1980s when this show aired), credit cards were sometimes sent to almost anyone - or "anything", such as a family's dog. People used to joke about actually getting a credit card for their cats, dogs, infant children, etc. Credit card representatives also went on campuses to lure "unemployed" students into getting credit cards by offering a free gift. They hoped college students would buy what they wanted or needed and parents would bail them out (pay the bills).
Suggested correction: It should be pointed out that credit card companies, especially in the past, do send out random cards (and offers). They buy customer information from stores from various sources, like warranty cards. People who have received credit cards for their pets (which has happened) have often filled out warranty cards with their pets' name but the rest of the information is the person's.
And some of the "less than honest" recipients of unsolicited credit cards were able to use the cards practically immediately, so went on shopping sprees and charged thousands of dollars for whatever they wanted with no intention of paying or being identified. And not all college students had parents that would bail them out, resulting in huge losses. It took a while, but the credit card companies learned from their mistakes and made drastic changes to avoid getting ripped-off in the future.
Deliberate mistake: When the family is trying to get money from Al at the start of the episode, he throws it on the ground making the rest of the family to dive on it and you can see Bud get it, then throw the bunch of money in the middle of Kelly, Peg and Bud so they can all get to it instead of taking it all. (00:02:10)
The Mystery of Skull Island - S6-E14
Continuity mistake: When the grown-ups are playing 'Ethical dilemma' Peggy lands on the field 'Sexual intimacy' (the field right after 'Start' with a one-word-title). Four minutes later in the show Al lands on the same field - but now it's 'Caring'. They can't have turned the game board because all the cards on it are in the same position. (00:09:40 - 00:13:40)
Other mistake: Al is running the water down the rabbit hole. Bud says the ground isn't even wet and asks where the water is going. A few seconds later Marcy is walking through the yard squishing on the ground because it's flooded.
Just Married ... With Children - S2-E20
Factual error: In the game show near the end, when Marcy and Steve come out as Al and Peggy. When the real Al and Peggy win the car, because they used Marcy and Steve's names, the car would have never gone to the real Al and Peggy. In reality, it would have gone to Steve and Marcy because it was won under their names. Al and Peggy would not have been able to keep the car. In fact Al and Peggy would not have been allowed to be on the show at all using someone else's name.
Factual error: The final scenes titled "Kankakee 1991" show desert scenery in the background; Kankakee, Illinois is in the Midwest US, which is almost entirely grassland and no desert.
Suggested correction: Kankakee and most areas surrounding have sandy soil and some areas can look very desert like during a very hot dry season but the mountain in the background is what gives it away. Kankakee is very flat other than the landfills.
