Hall Monitor / Harold's Bar Mitzvah - S2-E15

Hall Monitor / Harold's Bar Mitzvah - S2-E15
Other mistake: Hall Monitor: At the start of the school assembly, when Principal Wartz thanks Helga for her month as hall monitor, Wartz's right arm is atop the lectern, with his fingers over the lectern's front edge. As Wartz gestures toward Helga with his right arm and hand, the fingers of his right hand oddly remain over the lectern's front edge. Then, after Helga announces she may volunteer again, the audience groans, and in the next shot facing Wartz, he has four hands at the lectern's edge. (00:01:35 - 00:02:00)

Hall Monitor / Harold's Bar Mitzvah - S2-E15
Continuity mistake: Hall Monitor: After Phoebe's eyeglasses are stepped on, when she tells Helga, "Out with the old Phoebe, in with the new," Phoebe's belt buckle and two brown pouches have vanished, then reappear in the next shot. Later, while Phoebe sits on the desk during detention, her belt buckle is missing in her close-ups, and it reappears mid-shot as she crosses her legs. Then, when Phoebe's classmates share how they miss the "old" Phoebe, her buckle and the two brown pouches vanish, but they all reappear in a moment. (00:05:05)

Continuity mistake: Hall Monitor: When Principal Wartz tells Helga she cannot volunteer again, he removes the "revered badge" and its black crossbody strap from Helga.

When Phoebe joins them on the stage, Helga is again wearing the crossbody strap with the badge in the wide shot, but it's gone in the next shot as Wartz places it on Phoebe. (00:02:10)

So when Sid is aware of his mistake, Arnold's eyes disappear and reappear in his reflection mid-shot.

Continuity mistake: Helga Blabs It All: When the boys get ice cream from the Jolly Olly ice cream truck, Arnold gets a chocolate popsicle, and Gerald gets an ice cream cone.

Arnold Betrays Iggy / Helga and the Nanny - S3-E10
Continuity mistake: Arnold Betrays Iggy: When Arnold goes to Iggy's home near the start, the front doorknob is on the left side of the door, but the next time Arnold goes to see Iggy to bring him the box of chocolates, the front door opens the opposite way, with its doorknob now on the right side of the door. (00:01:20 - 00:06:40)
15th Oct 2024
Other mistake: Snow: After Grandpa turns the street into an ice rink, it cuts to Arnold in the backyard (by the garage) of Sunset Arms where he's been stowing logs in a storage container. When Grandpa shows up in the backyard and tells Arnold, "You got no play ethic," we see the fronts of Green Meats and Art's Shoe Repair behind Grandpa, but that's impossible because Sunset Arms is on the same side of the street as those two stores; we should only see the buildings/stores that are across the street from the boarding house. (00:21:30)

Parents Day - S5-E6
Continuity mistake: During the flashback, when little Arnold says goodbye to his parents, in the next shot of Stella and Miles, the bag's strap is slung over his dad's left shoulder as a crossbody, but mid-shot, the strap switches to his right shoulder with the bag on the opposite side. (00:14:30)

Helga Blabs It All / Harold the Butcher - S3-E1
Continuity mistake: Harold the Butcher: Mr. Green's meat store has a shopkeeper bell over its front door that vanishes in some shots, then it reappears. For instance, the bell is gone when Arnold is in the store while Harold sits across the street, but we hear it jingle and then the bell reappears when Harold enters the store.

Helga Blabs It All / Harold the Butcher - S3-E1
Continuity mistake: Harold the Butcher: In some shots of Mr. Green's meat store, its front door handle switches to the opposite side. Such as at the start, when Harold stops in front of Mr. Green's meat store because he's hungry. Also, while Harold sits across the street from the meat store, Green asks Arnold if Harold is still out there, and the store's front door handle is on the wrong side of the door. Next shot, as Arnold exits the store, the door opens properly. (00:19:30)
9th Aug 2024
Helga Blabs It All / Harold the Butcher - S3-E1
Continuity mistake: Harold the Butcher: After Mr. Green informs Harold that his week is up, Harold follows Mr. Green into the store, and the green front door remains open. Mr. Green explains that he's getting ready for the annual meat sale, and as Harold begs to keep working in the store, we can see in the background that the store's green front door has vanished. The open green front door is back when Harold exits the store. (00:19:05)
