My Name Is Earl (2005)
1 factual error in season 4
Starring: Jason Lee, Ethan Suplee, Jaime Pressly, Nadine Velazquez
Number One - S1-E24
Continuity mistake: When Randy is scratching off the joke lottery ticket, the amount of scratched-off material left on the ticket changes between the three close-ups. One shot shows that the ticket was rubbed and not scratched (the area revealed has a haze to it).

Question: Doesn't Earl have to pay state tax or whatever on his lottery winnings, and thus would be down to only 88 grand or so?
