Bad News from the Clinic - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: At the very beginning, Alan and Charlie are at the table talking about the woman Charlie is seeing. When Alan asks "at a leisurely pace or if you were developmentally challenged?", Alan is picking up a glass about to take a drink. In the next cut from behind Alan, he is now eating a fry. After Charlie says "Aren't you clever? Bite me", Alan has the glass back in his hand.

The War Against Gingivitis - S9-E18

Continuity mistake: At the beginning after Waldon's ex-wife video calls Waldon about Billy, Waldon goes outside to the balcony and screams. When Waldon screams, there's a cut to Alan by the sink where he also screams, breaks a plate and drops a green towel on the floor. The next cut after Alan, is Waldon coming back inside and Alan asking "Are you all right?" Look in the background and the green towel is all of a sudden folded and hanging on the side of the sink.

I'd Like to Start with the Cat - S6-E15

Continuity mistake: When Chelsea and Charlie are in the coffee shop talking about how they're doing, Charlie is drinking a cappuccino-type drink with caramel or some type of syrup or drizzle on the inside of the glass. Once Charlie says something along the lines of "She's a real ball buster, I can't get away with anything", the camera cuts back and forth between Charlie and Chelsea and with each cut, the amount of caramel on the inside of the glass increases and decreases.
