Glee

Pilot - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Will sits down to talk with Emma in the canteen at the start, the plastic item in the yellow cup keeps changing positions. In some shots it's facing Will, some shots it's facing Emma and in others it's facing neither of them. (00:03:50)

Continuity mistake: When Will finds out that the former teacher who ran Glee club got fired, Emma has a wet wipe sticking out of the tub. When the shot changes the tub is closed. (00:03:55)

Acafellas - S1-E3

Character mistake: Finn mentions Jim Abbott, the "one-armed" pitcher who played for the New York Yankees. Abbott is only missing his right hand, not an entire arm, nor is he limited in the mobility of the arm with the deformity.

Cubs Fan

Laryngitis - S1-E18

Continuity mistake: During the "Lady is a Tramp" number, Puck puts on a hat with the front of the brim flipped down. The brim miraculously flips up and back down throughout the scene.

The Power of Madonna - S1-E15

Other mistake: In the scene at the lockers with Brittany, Santana mentions having trouble finding a younger man per Sue's orders. However, Santana is a senior in season 3, which would make her a sophomore in season 1. Therefore, she could easily just date a freshman instead of needing Finn.

Showmance - S1-E2

Rachel: I tried, but I don't have a gag reflex.
Emma: When you're older, that will turn out to be a gift.

Trivia: At various times throughout the show you may notice Chris Colfer has a large red scar on the left side of his neck running from about half way on the side to the back of his visible lower hairline. He had surgery when he was eight to remove an infected lymph gland. It is most noticeable when singing "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" in "Grilled Cheesus" (00:28:05-00:28:15) and numerous times "Candles" on "Original Songs" (00:28:10, 00:28:20, 00:28:55 & 00:29:05-Most Noticeable).

Show generally

Question: Why don't any of the bullies ever get in trouble for throwing slushies at the members of the Glee club?

Answer: The show is purposefully stylized and over the top. It is not designed to be an accurate, realistic representation of American high school. The idea that the glee club is so unpopular other students can literally throw garbage at them with impunity is an over-exaggeration of how glee club is considered "un-cool" compared to things like football. However, there is a second way of looking at it. The audience is simply never shown anyone getting into any trouble for throwing slushies. Just because we don't see it doesn't mean it never happened.
