Diatribe of a Mad Housewife - S15-E10

Continuity mistake: After the clown balloon that rips at the car dealership there is a bit of material left over and there is also a cord attached to the wooden platform where the balloon was. After a reaction shot, it cuts back and the material and the cord have both disappeared.

Diatribe of a Mad Housewife - S15-E10

Continuity mistake: When Homer goes to Ned to make sure Marge imagines nothing again, Homer puts his hand through the door, then he puts his hand through the mailbox, then Nelson puts his hand out to steal the doormat. Nelson puts his hand just over the mailbox, then in the next shot when it reveals Nelson is there, his hand is suddenly under the mailbox without enough time to move it.

Casual Person

Margical History Tour - S15-E11

Factual error: On the castle where King Henry VIII is supposed to live, the flags at the top have the pattern of the English flag, being a + shaped cross on a coloured background, but it should be a red cross on a white background. Instead it's a white cross on a blue background. Those are the colours of the Scottish flag, but England and Scotland were separate countries at that point in history. And the cross on the Scottish flag is an X shape rather than a + shape anyway.

Milhouse Doesn't Live Here Anymore - S15-E12

Continuity mistake: Right at the beginning of the episode when all the children are on the bus we can see that in front of Nelson is Bart and behind him are Lewis, Martin and Wendall. Then when the shot changes to behind Nelson, Lewis has swapped places with Bart, Bart has disappeared and some weird kid is sitting where Lewis was. (00:00:40)

Smart and Smarter - S15-E13

Continuity mistake: Right at the very end scene, when Lisa and Maggie are sitting on the bed, you can see that there are 6 bricks on the bed. Yet when the shot changes there is only one behind Maggie, meaning two of them have just vanished. (00:20:30)

Homer's brain: It's simple, just use reverse psychology.
Homer: Reverse psychology? That sounds too complicated.
Homer's brain: Alright, don't use reverse psychology.
Homer: Alright, I will!
