Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius

Other mistake: When the kids are standing on the balcony after escaping from the dungeon, the arena is shown in the distance. Jimmy asks Goddard to activate his binoscope to get a look at their parents in the arena. The problem is that the walls of the arena obscure the center where the parents are dancing, which means that Goddard wouldn't have been able to get a clear view without going to a higher level. (01:04:55)

Other mistake: The size of the town Jimmy lives in is inconsistent with the size of the population shown. The town is quite big if it has its own mall, amusement park, and a large elementary school. Yet combined with the kids and adults seen, there couldn't be more than a hundred people living in this town.

Character mistake: When Jimmy explains to the kids of the town where the aliens took their parents, he mentions the origin of the aliens being somewhere in the Orion Star System, 3 million light years away. The Orion system is way closer than that. It is actually less than 1400 light years away from Earth. 3 million light years away would place them further than the Andromeda Galaxy.

Suggested correction: This shouldn't be a character mistake. A genius like Jimmy would know something like this. It's basic astronomy.

That's exactly why it's a character mistake. A character mistake is when a character does or says something that they shouldn't based on who/what they are suppose to be, or something a character wrongly states as fact when they should know better.
