Show generally

Continuity mistake: Sometimes Ed's fireplace in his office is on the right wall but then other times it's on the left. Plus Ed and Mikes' offices switch sides mid series. Ed's office is stage right in early years, Mike's is stage right in later years.

Show generally

Revealing mistake: There are numerous episodes where Mike is recording a video for Outdoor Man with his webcam, and a status bar is advancing towards the end of the video, indicating that the live recordings were added to the video stream in post production and synced up to the original performance.

Phaneron

Show generally

Continuity mistake: In the opening scene, Mike is cooking bacon on a gas stove. He is talking to Vanessa and is seen to shut off the gas under the frying pan. The scene cuts to Vanessa and then back to Mike. The gas under the pan is suddenly back on.

Pilot - S1-E1

Other mistake: Ed is telling Mike he is taking over the website. Ed says, "We have to lure young men to our stuff." Mike replies, "That sounds like something my sisters would say!" As we find out in later episodes, Mike has no sisters. (00:05:00 - 00:06:10)

Last Halloween Standing - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: When Mike is in Ed's office he is sitting in a chair he has a remote in his hand. His hand is up by his ear the shot changes, his hand is now in front of him. The remote is in his left-hand then switches to his right. When he leaves it is back in his left.

Good Cop, Bad Cop - S1-E6

Character mistake: Mike is holding and talking about his .59 caliber flintlock and refers to placing a percussion cap on it to fire it. A flintlock does not use a percussion cap.

Tree of Strife - S1-E16

Continuity mistake: The clip of Mandy meeting Kim K the news shows is different than what we originally saw. For example, originally Mandy yells "I'm going to give Kim Kardashian a hug. I rule!" But on the news it's "I'm going to give Kim Kardashian a hug, you guys."

Baxter & Sons - S1-E18

Continuity mistake: When Jim gets up to leave after being denied a loan, he doesn't open the door before turning around when Mike talks about co-signing. When it cuts to Jim as he says "forget it", the door is now opened, but closed the next time we see it.

Helen Potts - S4-E12

Trivia: In this episode, Patricia Richardson guest stars as Helen Potts. She played Tim Allen's wife on "Home Improvement", and there are plenty of inside jokes to reference "Home Improvement." Then, at the end, Jonathan Taylor Thomas appears as Helen's son, Randy and another joke ensues about how he looks familiar. Jonathan Taylor Thomas played Randy on "Home Improvement" and had already appeared several times in "Last Man Standing" playing John Baker, whom Mike already knows.
