Love and Cheese / Weighing Harold - S4-E7
Continuity mistake: Love and Cheese: When Arnold and Lila's boat starts sinking, it starts to move backwards and hits a huge rock at the edge of the waterfall. When Lila almost falls and Arnold holds her up, the rock is gone. It reappears in the following shots. (00:10:07 - 00:10:40)
Love and Cheese / Weighing Harold - S4-E7
Other mistake: Love and Cheese: When Arnold accidentally kisses Gerald's hand on the bus, his left foot is missing. (00:02:00)
Arnold's Thanksgiving - S3-E14
Other mistake: When Helga tells Phoebe how much she hates Thanksgiving backstage during the play, the third time Phoebe says, "Helga," the background is of Helga's living room, not backstage. (00:03:38)
Runaway Float / Partners - S2-E20
Other mistake: Runaway Float: After Nick Vermicelli says that the parade float is a total mess, as Arnold says, "It's not a mess," the background is of the school hallway, not Arnold's garage. (00:05:28)
Runaway Float / Partners - S2-E20
Continuity mistake: Runaway Float: When the beeper float first starts to speed out of control, in one of the shots, Helga is wearing her regular outfit, not her beeper costume. On top of that, the kids on the float are smiling and waving, not freaking out like they were before. (00:08:39)
Runaway Float / Partners - S2-E20
Revealing mistake: Runaway Float: When Arnold and Gerald are watching the parade, Arnold turns his head to look at the marching band. When he looks away from it, his left eye doesn't move, and it stays visible in his hair for the remainder of the shot. (00:07:51)
Arnold Betrays Iggy / Helga and the Nanny - S3-E10
Revealing mistake: Helga and the Nanny: When Helga tells the other kids that her nanny was fired, as she says, "Yeah, well my dad found his lucky belt under her bed this morning," her left-side hair disappears for one frame. (00:20:06)
Girl Trouble / School Dance - S3-E18
Continuity mistake: Besides the fact that when Helga is sharpening her pencil, the desk arrangement changes, one of the students visible when she looks at Arnold is...Helga.
Weird Cousin / Baby Oskar - S4-E11
Factual error: Stephen Viksten is credited twice for voicing Oskar.
Mud Bowl / Gerald Moves Out - S2-E9
Continuity mistake: When Gerald catches his little sister destroying his cassette tape, the book she is wrapping changes color from blue to green. (00:12:30)
Continuity mistake: When the four boys form their line (just before the adults call out "Arnold"), watch Harold's tooth; it goes from the right side of his mouth (as you look at him) to his left side.
The Little Pink Book/Field Trip - S1-E2
Continuity mistake: On the "Presidents of the United States" sign behind Helga, the word "United" becomes "Nvited"
Parents Day - S5-E6
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Arnold's parents leave for the last time, Grandma's hair is dark at first, then it becomes purplish-gray.
Freeze Frame / Phoebe Cheats - S2-E8
Trivia: Arnold's computer is made by Purdy Electronics; Joseph Purdy wrote the episode.
Operation Ruthless/The Vacant Lot - S1-E7
Continuity mistake: In Operation Ruthless, the pedal in Helga & Phoebe's bumper car changes color from black to gray to black between shots.
Tutoring Torvald / Gerald Comes Over - S1-E13
Continuity mistake: Arnold switches from his left hand to his right hand when taking the test.
Suggested correction: I don't believe it is ever established whether Arnold is left or right-handed in the series. Without confirmation; he may very well be part of the ambidextrous population that uses both. I used to write with both hands myself in school.
Except the mistake is saying he switches hands in between shots during the test. Not that one episode he's left handed and the next he's right handed. Yes, the teacher was shown for about 1-2 seconds before the switch happened. But these mistakes should be considered valid as an actual mistake in animation rather than to suggest to the audience that for no reason whatsoever, Arnold switches hands to finish the test, and only does so when not seen.
I'm ambidextrous myself, and I often switched hands when taking tests. It was very useful for preventing hand cramps. It only takes a couple of seconds to switch the pencil to the other hand, so I don't see why Arnold can't do it within that span of time too.
I do believe he is ambidextrous. In "The longest Monday" he is using chop sticks with his right hand. Many other episodes he uses his left hand to write.
Best Man / Cool Party - S3-E12
Other mistake: In the scene where Arnold meets the gang in the alley way, they give ideas to crash Rhonda's party. When Curly tells his idea to go to the zoo and free all the animals and there are shots of the gang looking at him confused,in two of the scenes, you'll notice that when Stinky and someone else looks at him, the background is at the school, not the alley.
Part-Time Friends / Bio Square - S2-E19
Continuity mistake: Part-Time Friends: When Arnold and Gerald get part-time jobs at the flower shop, while Mrs. Vitello explains things to them, she asks if she's going too fast, and in the next close-up, Arnold's apron vanishes, then it reappears.
Part-Time Friends / Bio Square - S2-E19
Other mistake: Bio Square: While Phoebe and Stinky are telling the class about their science fair experiment, just as Phoebe shares that it was in honor of her hero, "I.P. Pavlov," watch as Stinky's eyes move off to the side of his head, then return to normal.
Arnold's Hat/Stoop Kid - S1-E3
Continuity mistake: When Grandpa is telling Arnold about how how he tried to cover his head when his hair falls out, the camera cuts back to him with his arm on Arnold's shoulder and Arnold has his hat on, even though the whole story is about him losing his hat.
