Morticia, the Breadwinner - S1-E26
Continuity mistake: As Pugsley tells Wednesday about satisfied customers, his arms are by his sides, then suddenly crossed.
The Addams Family (1964)
1 mistake in Morticia, the Breadwinner - chronological order
Starring: John Astin, Carolyn Jones, Jackie Coogan, Ted Cassidy
Grandmama Addams: Fester, You're not cheating.
Uncle Fester: Sorry.
Trivia: Originally, Lurch was supposed to remain mute for the entire show. In the pilot, when the bell is first rung to summon Lurch, Ted Cassidy ad-libbed the line, "You rang?" This caused everybody to burst into laughter and from then on Lurch would talk.
Question: Ted (Lurch) Cassidy was a total of six feet nine inches tall. A number of times, especially in Season 2 Episode 6, "Cousin Itt's Problem", it seems the top of his head barely clears to top of the door jamb. Were the doors seven feet tall back then?

Chosen answer: Being that this was filmed in a TV studio, the set would have been specially designed and built to accommodate Cassidy's height. Also, I live in an older house (100 years-old), and all the inner and outer doors are eight feet tall.
