There's Something About a War - S2-E13

Continuity mistake: As the nurse is talking to Susan about the operation, the folding of the paper the nurse is holding on the clipboard changes between shots. First it is half folded over, the next shot it has been folded right over and is being held right down. After this shot it changes again and is now folded back without her moving the paper.

Thank You So Much - S2-E15

Continuity mistake: When Mrs. McClusky originally comes to the door to tell Andrew about Bree being laid out on the lawn, the cover to the dial for the sprinkler system is open. In the next scene, when Andrew goes over to turn on the sprinklers, the cover is closed.

There Is No Other Way - S2-E16

Continuity mistake: When Susan reveals her feelings in the operating room, the face mask Dr Ron is wearing covers his nose and mouth in one shot, then not his nose in the next, then his nose and mouth again in the next. (00:38:30)

There Is No Other Way - S2-E16

Continuity mistake: In "Thank You So Much" Valentine's day was on a Saturday or Sunday. In this episode, They are showing Bree marking her chores off a calendar for February and March 2006. The calendar matches the real calendar and Valentine's day was a Tuesday this year. The calendar doesn't match their previous episode. And they do state that "today is Valentine's day." not that they are celebrating it on the weekend.

Everybody Says Don't - S2-E18

Revealing mistake: Baby Lily is supposed to be a newborn, but she must be like 4 or 5 months old. When she is supposed to be tucked in a blanket, it's very obvious that they're using a doll that is much smaller than the actual baby.

Everybody Says Don't - S2-E18

Continuity mistake: When Bree is talking to Lynette about what Lynette would say to Andrew's lawyer, in the shots facing Bree her right hand is on top of her arm, but from behind, her hand is under her arm. This happens again in the next shots.

It Wasn't Meant to Happen - S2-E20

Factual error: Gabrielle visits Dale, her adopted child's natural father, at his high school and interrupts a pep rally for the football team's upcoming game. Dale, the team's Quarterback, even says that in the last game, he threw for 260 yards. The problem is that it is spring. Dale has just returned from a week in Florida for Spring Break. Football season is over. Basketball season should be over or ending soon. There couldn't have been a pep rally if the season is over.

Bree Van De Kamp: It's the age-old question, isn't it? How much do we really want to know about our neighbours?
