Visible crew/equipment: The shadow of the boom mike is visible in the background when Wally is saying that June looks "ritzy". (00:14:45)
Jeff SwansonOther mistake: The opening credits for season 5 show June coming out of the front door with a pitcher of what looks like iced tea, and calling for Ward, Wally and Beaver who are all working outside. But the door opens by itself as she comes out, and then closes by itself behind her. If the entire family is outside, who opened and closed the door?
Jeff SwansonVisible crew/equipment: As Ward and June are discussing the pigeons, the camera moves in for a close-up - and its shadow becomes visible on the left sleeve of June's dress. (00:11:40)
Jeff Swanson
Continuity mistake: When Linda is up in the tree talking with Beaver, her hair braids keep changing position; sometimes they're over her shoulders and sometimes not. (00:05:00)
Jeff SwansonTeacher Comes to Dinner - S3-E9
Continuity mistake: As the family is sitting at the breakfast table during one of the very first scenes, Beaver gets up to leave for school. The checkered napkin in his lap falls to the floor as he walks to the back door. The camera cuts back to the table where the napkin has magically reappeared.
MarcusTeeWally's Practical Joke - S6-E35
Visible crew/equipment: When Eddie Haskell comes over to scheme getting back at Lumpy, just as Eddie, Wally and Beaver are heading up the stairs, a mike boom is visible in the upper left corner.
John DContinuity mistake: As Beaver and Wally are starting upstairs after Ward asks them to go change their shirts for supper, the camera cuts from a long shot of Ward across the room in a chair reading a newspaper, wearing a light grey suit, to a medium close-up of Ward wearing a much darker suit, and then back to the light grey.
MarcusTeeContinuity mistake: In the scene where Ward helps June carry the groceries into the house, the bag in his left arm has a loaf of bread sticking out of the top, but as they enter the kitchen the bread is sticking out of the bag in his right arm. It is not even the same size.
Character mistake: As Eddie Haskell and Lumpy Rutherford return from the washroom to Mr. Gannon's history class, Mr. Gannon calls Eddie "Louis."
MarcusTee
Continuity mistake: As the boys are playing basketball at the Cleavers' house, "Tuey" is shown in the first shot without his glasses, yet immediately in the next shot where he shoots for a basket, he is wearing them. Magical Glasses, indeed.
Continuity mistake: When Beaver goes to Penny's front door, the door changes in appearance from one shot to the next. (00:23:05)
Jeff SwansonVisible crew/equipment: As Beaver, Gilbert and the golfers walk toward the camera and continue offscreen at the end of the episode, the shadow of a man wearing glasses falls on them (none of the actors were wearing glasses). (00:23:25)
Jeff SwansonCharacter mistake: The lady that talks with Miss Landers about the play calls Gilbert Bates "Gilbert Harrison."
MarcusTeeContinuity mistake: When June is talking to Wally, she's wearing a wristwatch and her wedding ring on her left hand.

Jeff SwansonContinuity mistake: When Beaver makes a face for The School Picture, he sticks his tongue out. But when Mrs. Rayburn and Miss Landers are looking at the picture sometime later, Beaver isn't sticking his tongue out. (00:13:00)
Jeff SwansonContinuity mistake: At the start Ward drives up in their old 1959 Plymouth Belvedere. He had been driving the 1961 Plymouth Fury for some time in season 4.
Character mistake: When Gilbert and Beaver are talking to their English teacher in the classroom, the teacher addresses them as Mr. Cleaver and Mr. Harris (as opposed to Mr. Bates). This same name discrepancy is referenced on this site in another episode.
Continuity mistake: Beaver gets his tonsils out in this episode, but in 3-29 "Beaver's Monkey", Beaver compared the situation in that episode to being just like when he had his tonsils out. Did they grow back?
Eddie, the Businessman - S6-E6
Visible crew/equipment: June and Ward are in the kitchen, Eddie leaves and Ward and June continue talking about Eddie and Wally getting hired at the dairy. The next scene shows the exterior of the house, and a dark figure is seen walking from the house toward the garage on the left side of the screen.
