Continuity mistake: In the beaver sketch, "Lisa" is holding Maggie in front of her to show everyone her first tooth. In the next shot, Maggie is instantly to her side.
The Secret War of Lisa Simpson - S8-E25
Continuity mistake: The vehicle they are driving changes form when they drop off Bart at military school to when they drive home. They leave with Homer's purple car (obvious from the crumpled headlight) and as they leave the military school it's Marge's orange car (obvious from the ski racks and lack of a trunk). It's clear from the entire scene that this is all one trip.
Continuity mistake: When the mob is at the gates of Belle's house, the door bell is first seen on the left hand side of the gates. In the next shot (behind Flanders) it is in the center of the gates.

Tree House of Horror VII - S8-E1
Continuity mistake: In 'The Thing and I' when Homer and Marge return from driving around in the rain, there is no doorknocker on the door. Then in the shot where Hugo escapes, we see the door open with red scratches on it, and there is a doorknocker. Then later when everyone leaves to find Hugo, it's gone again. (00:02:40 - 00:04:55)
Other mistake: The doctor in the insane asylum shows a video that shows a child Ned Flanders from 30 years ago. Ned is 60.
Tree House of Horror VII - S8-E1

The Twisted World of Marge Simpson - S8-E11
Continuity mistake: At the fair, Helen Lovejoy picks up a pita and bites a corner off it. There are a few angle changes and when it goes back to her and you can see her pita looks untouched. It's unlikely she just picked up another one or finished a whole one in that time.
Factual error: You wouldn't hear a dial tone on one side of the phone line if the phone on the other side was cut from the receiver. You wouldn't hear anything.
Continuity mistake: Ned's clothes are cut and torn in the huricane, but the next day, they are somehow clean and intact. He can't have gone home and changed, otherwise he would have seen everyone repairing his house.
Tree House of Horror VII - S8-E1

Continuity mistake: As Homer is walking out of the Kwik-E-Mart, after Apu refuses him the donut, he has nothing in his hands. In the next shot from outside the store we see him carrying a small paper bag.
Continuity mistake: When handing out the mail, Marge places a miniature jerry can of petrol on the table. It is gone in the next shot.
The Secret War of Lisa Simpson - S8-E25
Factual error: When Bart smashes all the glass in Springfield(as a result from the sound wave he made by speaking through the mega phones)the car windows get smashed as well. But when we see Chief Wiggum and Homer's car, the glass is still intact.
Continuity mistake: Marge said to Bart she would make Butterscotch chicken for him, but in the Season 2 episode "Blood Feud" Marge says Bart's allergic to butterscotch.
Brother From Another Series - S8-E16
