Factual error: Occasionally one of the characters will make a key reference to some film or other cultural event that took place in 1989 or later. Like the neighbor stating she saw Ghost, which came out in 1990.

Angst-Giving - S7-E8
Continuity mistake: The cookbook draft Beverly gives Adam to take to school to show Dave Kim, is over 2 inches thick. When Adam returns home to give it back to Beverly it is half the size.

O Captain! My Captain! - S4-E11
Other mistake: Barry climbs up on the desk and comically recites the "Oh Captain my Captain" refrain, which is in reference to the finale of Dead Poet's Society, which came out in 1989. An actual time jump forward, that would make him 20-something, which he isn't. And makes no sense for the episode, which is still set in the mid-80s.
