Corrected entry: In "Welcome to the 60's," out in front of the beauty salon, there is a park bench with an advertisement for 'The Dynamites' (who are singing). In the background of the advertisement, there are images of compact discs (CD's) which were invented in the 1980's even though the movie is set in the 1962.

Corrected entry: In the scene before "You're Timeless to Me", after Edna sprays steam at Wilbur with the iron, she sets the iron down flat, and never props it back up, which would cause a fire.

Corrected entry: When Tracey turned on the TV, it came on immediately, in 1962 TV's took at least a minute to warm up before the picture came on.

Correction: Musicals are not held to the same "reality" standards that other movies are, at least during the songs. If they were, then the fact that all these people are spontaneously breaking out in perfectly choreographed song and dance routines would be a mistake as well.
