The Dick Van Dyke Show

Long Night's Journey into Day - S5-E23

Stupidity: Rob tells Jerry "I haven't stopped sneezing long enough to take allergy pills" yet right after he says that, he doesn't sneeze anymore till he gives out his home address. He could have just taken his pills then. Someone behind the camera probably reminded him to continue sneezing. (00:16:52 - 00:18:00)

Suggested correction: He's exaggerating, but a character not taking a pill in this situation doesn't constitute a stupidly mistake (minor plot hole). I've been in situations where I needed to take an allergy or pain pill and didn't, even though I had a chance, because my mind or focus was somewhere else.

The Cat Burglar - S2-E15

Stupidity: Laura is shrieking, shouting and yelling. Rob is breathing things during the "night." But Richie never wakes up ever during the time it's dark "outside." However in other episodes Richie comes running in complaining about how loud everyone is. Real life if someone is shrieking or screaming us humans would be scrambling to find out what all is going on.
