Continuity mistake: At the very beginning when Mr. Cherrywood is juggling for the children, a toddler in the background watches from her crib - which has a gate made up of six posts. Right before Mr. Cherrywood makes his way to the door, a close up of the toddler's crib reveals a gate with five posts instead. (00:00:55)

In the immediate vicinity of the boys' bed is a nightstand with a half-filled drinking glass and a ball on top. Hanging from the wall above the headboard is a framed picture as well. Once Mr. Cherrywood wraps up his story, he and Mrs. Cherrywood start carrying the children to their own beds. But just before Tenderheart Bear peeks through the window, notice how the framed picture has become a poster fastened with two pieces of tape and the drinking glass has transformed into a table lamp.

Continuity mistake: During "Care-a-Lot" when Friend and Secret Bear are getting ready to pull away in their cloud mobile, Wish Bear is standing near the driver's side holding her star-o-scope. Behind the scope we can see her shooting star tummy symbol. For a moment the cloud mobile grinds to a halt. But once it's ready for takeoff again, Wish Bear is standing in the same position, only this time her tummy symbol is missing. (00:03:40)
Continuity mistake: During the opening song, Secret Bear and Friend Bear are getting ready to take off for Earth in a cloud mobile when they're halted by the star buddy traffic controller blowing a whistle.

Continuity mistake: When Friend and Secret Bear meet Kim and Jason in the park, everybody is shown standing on a trail.

Continuity mistake: After trying to reach out to Kim and Jason for the first time, Secret Bear and Friend Bear get turned down, so they look at each other in disbelief. But just before the scene cuts away, the bears instantly turn their heads toward Kim and Jason between shots. (00:06:30)

Later, Fetuccini is plucking his mustache on the same chair but now it strangely has two posts. (00:07:15 - 00:14:55)
