City Slackers - S3-E11

Trivia: At the very end of the episode, Eric sinks all 15 billiard balls as well as the cue ball. This was achieved on the very first take. Will Friedle almost ruined the take with his surprised look. According to him, the person who set up the balls in such a manner to make the shot possible told him that the cue ball wasn't necessarily supposed to go in as well. Supposedly, it was a world record for the most billiard balls sunk in one shot for a television or film production.

City Slackers - S3-E11

Deliberate mistake: Shawn fishes Mr. Feeny's watch from the septic tank and mentions the septic tank is deeper than it looked. Given this, he should be covered in human waste, instead of just looking a little dirty.

Grim Reminder - S1-E11

Other mistake: The trees that the brainwashed Wolverine slices down, while chasing after Kitty, fall to the ground too slowly. They should fall quickly as a large, heavy object would, but instead float down like a feather.

Trivia: As part of the film's marketing, the studio made a spoof of AMC Theaters' "We Come to This Place" commercial that plays just before films in their theaters start, with Billy the Puppet in place of Nicole Kidman.

Trivia: This film features appearances from WWE alumni John Cena and Dwayne Johnson. There used to be real-life acrimony between the two, as Cena was critical of Johnson for leaving the WWE to pursue a film career, alleging he abandoned his fans and the business he claimed to love. Cena would later apologize for this disposition after pursuing a film career of his own, acknowledging that he didn't make the effort to view things from Johnson's perspective.

Stupidity: This film portrays Michael Jordan and his family living in a relatively modest house in the suburbs. Jordan was one of the most famous people on the entire planet around the time the film takes place. Living in such an area would lead to a never-ending onslaught of overzealous fans, paparazzi, and even detractors.

Shadowed Past - S1-E10

Other mistake: The guitar next to Rogue's bed has position markers on all of the odd-numbered frets, beginning with the first. Position markers on guitars start on the 3rd fret, and sequentially follow on the 5th, 7th, 9th, 12th, 15th, 17th, 19th, and 21st frets (and 24th where applicable).
