Character mistake: In the establishing shot at the farmers market, when the camera pans all the way to the right, there is a booth advertising roasted nuts, and "roasted" is misspelled as "roasteo." (00:03:20)

'Til Death Do Us Part: Part 2 - S2-E2
Character mistake: In the establishing shot of the movie theater where the Friends of Humanity meeting is taking place, the word "Humanity" on the marquee is incorrectly spelled as "Humanty." (00:06:32)

X-Men (1992)
Days of Future Past: Part 2 - S1-E12
Character mistake: After Gambit escapes from Wolverine and Bishop, Bishop says to Wolverine "No wonder you sent me back to change the future, because everything that happens is your fault." Wolverine didn't send Bishop back to change the future. He insisted on going back himself, but Bishop forced Wolverine out of the mission and inserted himself into the role because he felt Wolverine was too old to succeed. (00:10:03)

Iron Man (1994)
Hands of the Mandarin: Part 1 - S2-E12
Character mistake: When the power is going out across New York, Julia quips "Holy blackout of '68," referencing the Great Northeast Blackout. However, that occurred in 1965, not 1968. (00:03:39)

Fantastic Four: The Animated Series (1994)
Behold, a Distant Star - S2-E10
Character mistake: When Sue is brought out of surgery, her father can be seen wearing a watch. Surgeons don't wear watches or any other kind of jewelry when performing surgery, as they can't be sterilized and can also get in the way of gloves. (00:05:00)

X-Men (1992)
Character mistake: When Rogue asks Storm what her plan is for dealing with the closing walls, Storm says "You three stop the walls, I shall slow the ceiling." Besides Storm and Rogue, Jubilee, Jean Grey, and Gambit are also there, so Storm should have said "You four stop the walls." (00:03:12)

X-Men (1992)
Night of the Sentinels: Part 1 - S1-E1
Character mistake: When Jubilee wakes up in the infirmary, the sphygmomanometer on her wrist has been applied over her gloved hand, which could cause a false reading. Beast is the X-Men's resident doctor, so presumably he's the one that applied it to her, so he should have known to remove her gloves first for more accurate readings. (00:08:24)

X-Men (1992)
Night of the Sentinels: Part 2 - S1-E2
Character mistake: When Beast is uploading the virus to delete all the mutant files from the computer, Storm destroys the monitor with a bolt of lightning and says they have run out of time. Destroying the monitor wouldn't magically erase the files. While she may not know that, Beast definitely would, so at the least, he should have asked her to destroy the computer tower and hard drive as well. (00:06:13)

Origin of Iron Man: Part 1 - S1-E11
Character mistake: When young Tony Stark is telling his father that their helicopter's anti-flak chip didn't kick in, he acknowledges that it was his fault by saying he blew it. When his father corrects him and says "No Tony, we blew it. Stark and Son," Tony defensively says "The anti-flak chip failed, it's not my fault," completely contradicting what he said seconds earlier. (00:14:00)

Iron Man to the Second Power: Part 2 - S1-E10
Character mistake: When the robot Iron Man lands on the building, the clock behind him has inconsistent spacing between its Roman numerals, which would result in inaccurate time readings. (00:09:14)

Iron Man (1994)
The Defection of Hawkeye - S1-E8
Character mistake: When the team is going out for their midnight run, a sign is shown that says "One way. Don't buck up. Severe tire damage." It should say "Don't back up." (00:13:16)

The Grim Reaper Wears a Teflon Coat - S1-E5
Character mistake: When the mob is protesting Tony Stark, one of the signs is supposed to say "Fraud," but instead says "Eraud." (00:05:13)

Boy Meets World (1993)
Character mistake: After Cory and Topanga have their argument in front of everyone, Cory remarks to Shawn that it's their first fight ever. Cory and Topanga had several fights in the show prior to this. (00:12:50)

Boy Meets World (1993)
For Love and Apartments - S7-E2
Character mistake: When Shawn is scolding Topanga for getting angry with Cory for travelling to Pittsburgh to try to get her parents back together, he mentions that he travelled a hundred miles to do so. Philadelphia is roughly 300 miles from Pittsburgh. Travelling only 100 miles westward from Philadelphia would barely get them past Hershey. (00:17:53)

Boy Meets World (1993)
Character mistake: When Sarah the waitress is filling up Cory and Shawn's coffee cups, she puts hardly any coffee in them, with Cory's barely being a couple of drips. A waitress that works on tips wouldn't be so lackadaisical about filling a customer's coffee cup. Cory and Shawn just sat down as well, so it's not like she was just topping them off. (00:02:58)

Boy Meets World (1993)
Better than Average Cory - S6-E5
Character mistake: The placard next to Alexandra Nechita's painting "Peace Collector" erroneously calls the painting "Peace Collectors." Nechita herself appears in this episode, so it's odd that they got it wrong. (00:02:49)

Boy Meets World (1993)
The Eskimo - S5-E13
Character mistake: In the opening scene, Cory remarks that they have been in high school for 4 years and there's nothing left for them to be taught. They began high school in 7th grade and are now midway through their senior year, so they have actually been in high school for 5 and a half years.
Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.
Suggested correction: There's a difference between being at the same school and being in high school. For most students, high school is 4-years long (9th-12th grade). When I was in kindergarten, I went to a K-12 school. If I graduated from that school, I wouldn't have said I was in high school for 13 years.
It's openly stated numerous times beginning with season 2 when they are in 7th grade that they are now in high school. The school is even called John Adams High School, and not something like John Adams K-12 or anything like that. I remember being baffled by this growing up, because high school for me did not begin until 9th grade, and even then, we didn't attend an actual high school until 10th grade. It may be unconventional compared to real life, but the show firmly established that they were in high school starting with 7th grade.

The Incredible Hulk (1996)
Character mistake: When the woman is looking at the high school photo of She-Hulk at the high school reunion, she says "Oh, look. Remember her? Jennifer something or other." You can see that her full name is written directly underneath the photo, so there's no reason why the woman would look at the photo and not know what Jennifer's last name is.

The Incredible Hulk (1996)
Hulk of a Different Color - S2-E1
Character mistake: When She-Hulk is objecting to the prosecution using live footage of the Rick Jones-Hulk hybrid to prove that Bruce Banner is not the Hulk, the judge overrules her without letting her state the legal grounds to her objection.
