The Wonder Years

Swingers - S1-E2

Factual error: Paul and Kevin go to the book store to buy "Everything you always wanted to know about sex." In this episode it was still 1968 but the book was not released until 1969.

Season 1 generally

Factual error: Kevin and Wayne's bedroom shows a Beatles poster of the White Album. However this album, and presumably the poster as well, didn't come out until November 1968. This season opens with the summer and start of the school year 1968.

How I'm Spending My Summer Vacation - S2-E17

Plot hole: When Kevin is upset about Paul leaving for summer and is just lounging around the house, he asks why they can't go on vacation. His mom says "Maybe next Summer." In the very next episode, which takes place in the same Summer, they are going on a "traditional" Summer vacation.
