Suggested correction: He is in his own driveway the whole time. There's never a shot of him in a different position and certainly never in Flanders' house. You ever see the brick wall from the Simpsons' house in the last shot.

Tree House of Horror XI - S12-E1

Continuity mistake: In Reaper madness, there's a scene which Homer wakes up being the grim reaper, he puts the robe on at which point he is wearing a singlet. In the next scene where God turns Homer back to his regular self he is wearing his white shirt.

Homer vs. Dignity - S12-E5

Plot hole: In the last part of the episode, when Mr Burns is trying to convince Homer on his float to play a big prank, the timing is totally wrong. Firstly, Lisa sees the writing 'Happy Pranksgiving' on the side of Mr Burns' float way before it reaches her, and it takes Mr Burns ages to change into the Father Christmas outfit.

Homer vs. Dignity - S12-E5

Deliberate mistake: The mouth on the panda costume is in a constant smile and at no point does Homer change it, even when he is in pain. However, when he is being pulled back under the curtain the mouth is open and the mask has a frightened expression. I suppose this was done on purpose, but it's still a continuity error of sorts.

The Great Money Caper - S12-E7

Continuity mistake: When they are driving home Marge starts to moan at the children to quiet down. In this shot she has no lipstick. In the next shot from outside the car she has lipstick on and has it for the rest of the scene.

Skinner's Sense of Snow - S12-E8

Continuity mistake: When Skinner dismisses the kids from school, we learn the snow level is near the top of the windows and to the top of the doors. But in the next scene, we see a shot of Springfield and the Simpson home, where the snow level is to the bottom of the door. (00:08:02)

Skinner's Sense of Snow - S12-E8

Continuity mistake: When the hamster Nibbles has rolled back to Skinner, it takes the lid of the ball off, and the lid lands on the ground. When the hamster is rolling away from Skinner it doesn't put the lid back on, it just leaves it on the ground, but in the next shot the lid is suddenly gone.
