100 Terrible Hours - S4-E28

Corrected entry: While Rob is by himself at the WOFF radio station the "On the Air" sign is above the door behind him and there is a giant window there beside the door. When Rob is doing the 100 hours of being on the radio the door, the window and room are completely different. No door, record disc holder, other equipment, or window behind him.

Correction: The studio looks different because when Rob does the 100 hours, he's doing it in a storefront window. People are standing outside and passing by to watch him. He's not in the studio.

Correction: When Laura first comes in, you can see the ivy. When she leaves, the camera is at a different angle, and you see a part of the wall not covered with ivy.

It May Look Like a Walnut! - S2-E20

Character mistake: Rob is having a nightmare, part of which involves the disappearance of his thumbs. When he finds Laura at home, the script calls for him to say, "I want you to help me get my thumbs back," but he actually says, "I want you to help me get my thumb backs." His thumbs are also still there but hidden (you can see a portion of them in one frame of the episode).
