Desperate Housewives

Epiphany - S6-E20

Other mistake: Throughout the sixth season Eddie Orlofsky attends school with Porter Scavo, and Danny Bolen, witch means they must be close in age. However, in season 6 episode 20, it is revealed that Eddie was in high school the same time as Danielle. This does not make sense due to the fact that while Danielle was in high school, Porter and Preston were about 10.

Epiphany - S6-E20

Other mistake: When Bree goes to talk to Eddie Orlofsky's mother, she introduces herself as "Bree Hodge." However, she proceeds to talk about how Eddie likes her daughter Danielle, but her daughter "doesn't return his feelings, she spends most of her time with the other cheerleaders." In the scene before, Eddie had also mentioned that he liked a girl "from school." The problem is at the time that Danielle was in high school, Bree was not "Bree Hodge", but "Bree Van de Kamp." She hadn't even met Orson Hodge then. (00:19:10)

Chromolume No. 7 - S6-E17

Audio problem: When Gaby goes to introduce Angie to Heidi Klum at the fashion agency, Gaby goes up to Heidi and says "It's me, Gaby." When the camera angle changes to behind Gaby in the next shot, she is saying the same thing again, but no words are coming out.

Nice Is Different Than Good - S6-E1

Continuity mistake: At the end of season 5, Lynette finds out she's about 6 weeks pregnant. At the end of the same episode, they do a "Two Months Later."

My Two Young Men - S6-E18

Audio problem: During the dinner scene at the Scavo's home, Lynette tells Irina that her son Preston is "blinded by a piece of Eurotrash who would sell her own mother for a pair of designer jeans."

Chromolume No. 7 - S6-E17
