The Muh-Muh-Muh-Murder - S1-E25

Plot hole: Daffy isn't able to escape Porky's house until he gets the keys, but later it is revealed that the reason he couldn't get out was because he was too weak to open the door. If that was the case, the keys shouldn't have been able to help him get out.

Beware the Creeper - S2-E10

Plot hole: During Ryder's report, as Bruce and company watch it on TV, the camera suddenly zooms in on Joker standing on a catwalk above Ryder, and none of the crew, especially not the camera man who caught the villain, makes a comment about this. They may have thought the Joker (or rather an impersonator) was perhaps a surprise gag in the show, but since this is supposed to be a serious documentary report, it is still strange that they wouldn't point it out.
