Character mistake: When Jack tells Mr. Furley his brother is in town (before mentioning it was a "twin" brother who Jack made up), Mr. Furley gave a puzzled look and said "Your brother?" which appeared as if he didn't know Jack had a brother. However, in the previous season, Mr. Furley briefly met Jack's brother Lee, so he already should have known Jack had a brother (even if were to turn out to be a different brother).
Three's Company (1977)
1 character mistake in season 5 - chronological order
Starring: John Ritter, Don Knotts, Suzanne Somers, Joyce DeWitt, Richard Kline
Genres: Comedy
Revealing mistake: During Jack's dance scene, the old lady that he dances with spins away from him and knocks off a man's toupee. The actress was supposed to knock it off as she went by, but it's obvious that she misses and instead quickly reaches over to snatch it off his head instead.
Stanley Roper: I want my rent.
Helen Roper: Stanley, where are your manners? You're supposed to say hello when you walk into a room.
Stanley Roper: Hello, I want my rent.
Trivia: In the episode where Janet asks Jack if she's a bad kisser, take a look at Janet when he kisses her. Jack unexpectedly slip Janet his tongue (which surprises the audience as well) and that throws Janet off and shocks her. Her surprised face is not acting, and was really surprised he did that. You'll also notice that when they part, she can't keep a straight face.

Suggested correction: This does not happen, their kiss is closed and for 2 seconds and Janet doesn't ask about her kissing. She says before the kiss when they have few mishaps trying to kiss before the final kiss that no-one has ever picked her kissing before and his response was, "Just shut up and kiss me!" She responds, "Okay fine!" Then they kiss, mouth closed just lips.
Question: What is the picture of women on the walls of the set? Not the butterfly picture, the others.
Answer: I believe you are referring to the artwork of Alphonse Mucha. On the wall next to the front door was "Feather" (which is one half of "Primrose and Feather"). Above the telephone in early episodes was "Zodiac". Also seen through The Apartment was "Spring" and "Autumn".
Answer: Or, you may be referring to Tranquillo Cremona's High Life (A Piquant Conversation), which hangs above the side table.
