Precedent Nixin' - S6-E19

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Doug's father is shutting off the alarm, he does not enter 2965. We know this is the proper code, because it is Doug's birthday, and it worked when he entered it. It looks like he maybe enters 1459.

Educating Doug - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: In this episode, when Doug and Carrie are taking an adult literature class together, Doug comes down the stairs with his book in his hand, but when he sits on the couch he only has his book pillow and reading lamp, and runs back upstairs to get his book.

Sight Gag - S4-E2

Continuity mistake: When Carrie takes Doug into the back yard to yell at him, after she is done swinging at him, she puts her hand up to her chin. First it's her left, then right. It changes between shots. Each time the camera goes back to her it happens.

Fight Schlub - S8-E22

Visible crew/equipment: When Doug is getting a lift from the Priority Plus driver after being rescued from being stuck in the drive-thru, you can see the camera truck (the truck they use to film exterior road/driving shots) in the reflections of the glass windows of buildings behind Doug when the camera cuts to him.

Jung Frankenstein - S5-E12

Revealing mistake: In the final scene of the episode, Arthur is searching for used bottles of nasal spray. He empties the contents of the trash can on the kitchen floor and finds one after sifting through the trash. However, the bottle had already been positioned on the floor next to the trash can before he picked up the trash can so it would be easy to find when the trash was emptied on the floor.

Tricker Treat - S4-E6

Revealing mistake: When Doug and Deacon are driving round trying to find Gabe's Pizzeria, they get into the car and pull out into the road. However if you look at the traffic, they would have hit at least 2 cars in doing so. But they don't, showing it's a projection. (00:14:40)

Assaulted Nuts - S2-E3

Continuity mistake: When Carrie confronts Arthur about looking in her bag, her bra strap is slightly hidden by her top. Camera cuts to a front view of Carrie then back to behind her. Now her bra strap has moved and is totally visible. Carrie never touched it during this time as we see her hands. (00:12:25)
