The Simpsons

Correction: Given Bart's powers in this episode he could easily have made a bottle appear. A more mundane explanation is that Lisa or Marge brought it to him, there was more than enough time.

tw_stuart

Correction: Not a mistake, unless there's anything contradicting continuity in that shot.

Lummie

Correction: It does look slightly different but it is a different angle and we see the entrance to the cafeteria, which could easily have a vending machine outside so it makes sense.

tw_stuart

Correction: The shot changes to an overhead one where the red chair could easily be still there but just out of shot.

tw_stuart

Correction: He could easily have placed it on the ground.

tw_stuart

Correction: The hand holding the candy bar is out of shot during most of the conversation between Homer and his stockbroker so he had more than enough time to put it down.

tw_stuart

Correction: It all looks OK to me on my DVD.

Like Father, Like Klown - S3-E6

Corrected entry: When Krusty does his performance in front of Rabbis, when Krusty's father starts talking to another Rabbi, you can see a third Rabbi at another table in the background. In the next two shots this rabbi has vanished. (00:09:20)

Yoshi

Correction: Between the two shots there is a shot of Krusty. In this shot there is enough time for the rabbi to get up.

OL1V3R666

Correction: We only see the back of Lisa's head so it's impossible to know if her mouth moves or not.

tw_stuart

Correction: We are seeing it from a different angle than normal so it's hard to know if it's really different. Even if it is, this is not a mistake. There is time before and after for things to change.

tw_stuart

Correction: The spoon is out of shot while we are seeing Homer. Lisa may have licked it clean or the ice cream may have have just melted.

tw_stuart

Correction: In between Homer entering and us seeing him clapping, we see Lisa on stage. Homer had plenty of time to move to the right.

tw_stuart

Correction: We see the audience from behind, they could easily be clapping their hands without us seeing.

tw_stuart

Correction: No, the scene where he is wearing his coat is completely different from when he is leaving the house. He may have gone home in between.

tw_stuart

Correction: No, the shot changes from a wide look at the whole cast to one of the camera screen which has zoomed in on Krusty so he's the only one we can see.

tw_stuart

Correction: Look closely, it's always five both in the wide and the close up shots.

tw_stuart

Correction: It was moved to give Krusty space for his unicycle act and then put back.

tw_stuart

Correction: This is normal during dinner and there was plenty of time during Krusty's story when we couldn't see the table for things to be moved.

tw_stuart

Correction: We see Bart clear a number of things from the table and then the angle changes to one where we can no longer see what's on it, so no mistake.

tw_stuart

Correction: Not a mistake but a joke by the show's makers. Even 25 years, long after the fire should have gone out yet it is still raging and everything including the clouds are exactly the same.
