New Trickster in Town - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When the kids in the chorus become possessed by the ghosts and run out of the room, Juniper is standing alone by the piano, still wearing the chorus robe. In the next shot, the chorus teacher is now standing next to her, and she is not wearing her robe.

Sharkbait - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: To beat the traffic, Coop skateboards inside a construction pipe. The pipe is on the back of a truck, so it's not exactly very long, and gets picked up by a crane arm mounted on the truckbed itself. However, Coop takes ages to come out of the pipe, and in the shot from inside the pipe it looks as if is dozens of meters above the street level, which isn't. (00:08:00)

Hawaii Here We Come - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Benny comes to Top Cat's dustbin at the start of the episode, he first pushes a door bell and then uses a handle to knock on the dustbin. In the next shot, both the bell and handle have disappeared.

There Goes Ryoma - S1-E1

Character mistake: Professor Saotome checks the status of the Getter Robot when his son falls unconscious. The HUD output is written in awkward EngRish, from the first line of the status report, called; "Monitor the state of affairs", to smaller details like the article randomly used for certain lines ("a control device, a correspondent"). The biggest flub though is that the name of his son is "Tatsuhito", in proper romanization, but here appears as "Tatuto." (00:05:20)

My Way or the Highway - S2-E7

Factual error: When the militia come in to shoot Woody, they're holding pump action shotguns and you hear them pump them (meaning chamber a round so it's ready to shoot). Even if we assume Malloy and Jorge did not do this, we see/hear them both pump the shotgun twice (without ever shooting in between). However, pumping the shotgun after a round has been chambered will eject the round, in the case of Malloy and Jorge an intact round, not just the shell, would be ejected. However, we never see anything be ejected.

Race to the Spaceship/Sandbox Surprise - S3-E5

Revealing mistake: In the sequence where Pig is making a pizza with strange toppings, an ant caries a large bucket of popcorn up the counter. It is flush on its back with no top when on the floor, and the popcorn is bulging out. The ant turns 90 degrees and walks up the counter, and the popcorn thus turns on its side in the air. Not one piece of popcorn falls out or even shifts, despite the pile now pointing out rather than up.

In Treacherous Waters - S1-E1

Factual error: Barbara shoots her revolver at the guys chasing them. When she stops and gets out of the car, she opens the cylinder and we see she only has 1 round left. However, the other chambers should still have the empty casings in them instead of being empty.

Show generally

Continuity mistake: In the opening credits, as the room becomes animated, Ricky has a coffee mug an inch away from him. The mug moves a good 10 inches away from Ricky the shot after Karl says "All right?" (00:00:35)

Sonic Returns - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: Just before the portal opens where Sonic comes out by a water fall, you get a good view of the ground around where he comes out at and there are no holes. But once he emerges, he looks around and then looks down and suddenly there are large holes that become what he focuses on. (00:00:25)

Surf'N Turf/Hardcase Returns - S1-E8

Revealing mistake: In "Hardcase Returns" Skidmark uses a digital phone to track a GPS device installed on Turbo's parade car. When the keypad on it is shown, 3 letters are missing. They could have been on the keys that had nothing written on them, but we will never know for sure because nothing is on them.
