Never Bathe on Saturday - S4-E27
Continuity mistake: The bathroom door that Rob shot the knob off with the gun is not there in 1 scene, but suddenly reappears a little bit later back on the door, he's able to open and close the door with ease when he is in the bathroom with Laura while she's getting out of the tub. (00:20:30 - 00:22:00)
Never Bathe on Saturday - S4-E27
Continuity mistake: In the first scene, when Laura tells Millie she spent the whole day in the bathtub and Millie says "In a bathtub" Millie moves from sitting on a chair to sitting on the couch next to Laura in a flash.
Never Bathe on Saturday - S4-E27
Other mistake: When Laura is in the bathtub you do not hear the water running, or the water draining from the tub. Also, Laura's foot size (a size 6-7 same size as my foot size) would be too small to get stuck in the faucet. Also, when Laura and Rob are at their house if Laura's big toe was actually stuck in the faucet her toe would have been hurting bad enough to not put her shoe back on, but both shoes were on.
Revealing mistake: When Rob is talking on the radio, and says something along the lines of WOFF the station with (then a long pause while he plays a car sound) drive. The On the Air sign goes off before he says drive. He was still on the air.
Character mistake: Rob is reading the news or his lines and instead of saying "the stay awake record of 100 hours" he says "stay away record of 100 hours."
Other mistake: The record that is to Rob's right (our left) isn't spinning while the base part under it is, until Rob puts the ceramic coffee cup on the record. Notice that ceramic coffee cup is also the same coffee cup that Rob threw away in the episode "Your Home Sweet Is My Home"
Suggested correction: So you are claiming that they somehow rigged the turntable so it would spin without spinning the record until he put the cup down on it. For what reason? No only does this error defy common sense, it is obviously wrong if you watch the episode. The record is spinning. You can see the variations in the highlights on the surface as it does so. Also, it is not a ceramic cup, it is a paper cup, complete with a folding paper handle. And it in no way resembles any cup used in "Your Home Sweet Home is My Home."
I did great! I forgot which episode I saw the same cup in.
Revealing mistake: If Rob and Laura actually did dye their hands not only would their hands be black but so would their wedding rings. Also, while Laura is "using water" on her hands you can tell she wasn't using water or soap because her hands aren't wet and there isn't any soap to be seen at all... You only see the dish rag. (Same for when Rob does the same thing later on). (00:06:07)
Other mistake: Buddy's dog is also the same dog for everyone else. They are all German Shepherds. Except for Millie and Jerry's dog we have never seen him/her ever. Yet they say that they have a dog too.
Continuity mistake: Rob is in the garage on his motorcycle. We notice the door to the garage leads out to the back/side yard towards the house, but in "Long Night's Journey into Day" the door to the garage is connected to the house from the kitchen.
Continuity mistake: In this episode we do not see a garage door. Yet in the "Long Night's Journey into Day" episode the garage door would have been right where all the tools and junk were on Rob's right (close to where Richie was standing talking to Rob).
A Farewell to Writing - S4-E33
Revealing mistake: Laura and Millie are inside the "house" and Rob is outside the "house" the door and windows are all closed... Yet we can still hear Rob just as if he was in the house rather than outside.
A Farewell to Writing - S4-E33
Character mistake: Rob was digging outside the window supposedly with his hands. Yet he is 100% clean as a whistle. No dirt on anywhere to be seen.
A Farewell to Writing - S4-E33
Other mistake: Rob said he hit the plumbing (with a shovel) yet if you hit the plumbing (accidentally poke into a plumbing tube) usually water would shoot all over the place (which never happens in this episode).
Suggested correction: Of course he does. He is punch drunk from the lack of sleep. That's the point.
On hour 24 Rob couldn't even say the rhyme at all, he also sounded slightly drunk, also his lower eye lids got dark. I have been up for 48 hours before and my eye lids never turned that color also I didn't act slightly drunk like that either. So it's not actually true to life here.

1) You can't assume your personal experiences is typical of everyone's. 2) I doubt your experience was very funny. In a comedy, stupidity overrides "true to life."
More like dumbness overrides "true to life." I'm pretty sure that falling down the stairs is funny to some people (which is what I did).
