The Car - S2-E24

Continuity mistake: When John-Boy finishes the roof repair he carries the ladder and places it beside the tree, then he notices the unlocked padlock on the garage door. In the closeup, the open lock is inserted through the latch facing the right, but in the wideshot the lock is inserted through the latch the opposite way. (00:25:25)

The Car - S2-E24

Visible crew/equipment: When John-Boy tells Mr. Rudge that he'd like to know all about his deceased son, during this touching scene there are closeups as Mr. Rudge's hand strokes the vehicle that belonged to his son, and we can see the reflection of the boom pole and mic, at least two crew members, filming equipment, and another vehicle on the polished chrome surface.

John Walton: I hate this draft job, Liv. I can't stand playing God to my neighbors' sons.

The Outrage: Part 1 - S9-E1

Trivia: While everyone is at the table eating supper and talking, little John Curtis taps on John's shoulder, then John turns and asks "What?" John Curtis points to his pants and excitedly says, "I got new pants," and John says, "I see that. Who got you those? Your mommy?" Then John Curtis looks offscreen, away from the other actors on set, and replies, "No, from Pat," (no characters named Pat are on the show) and without missing a beat, John responds, "From Pat? Where does she live? On the next farm?" And John Curtis answers, "Yeah," amidst all the giggles we can hear, so John answers with a smirk, "Okay, good!" This is such a hilariously precious unscripted moment, and great they decided to leave it in the episode. (00:26:15)
