Beverly Hills, 90210

Show generally

Other mistake: When the show aired in 1990, in the pilot episode Brenda falls for Jason. She later on reveals herself to be a "16 year old junior" in high school. Season 2 opens up with the gang on summer break which technically would make them going into their senior year. It wasn't until Season 3 that they were going into their senior year. They graduated in 1993 from West Beverly but the show debuted in 1990 so technically they should have been sophomores.

Class of Beverly Hills - S1-E1

Factual error: In this debut episode of the show, Andrea takes a bus home to "Van Nuys." After showing the bus heading to the valley on the 405 freeway, as she exits the bus, the street sign states "Gramercy Pl" which is in L.A. (not Van Nuys or the San Fernando Valley where she is supposed to be in). In addition, her house shows 548 to be the address. All addresses in Van Nuys are either four or five digits.

Perfect Mom - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: When Jackie walks out and Cindy walks in, she closes the door behind her. However, despite the door being closed, Brenda walks in. (00:36:05)

Isn't It Romantic? - S1-E10

Visible crew/equipment: When the scene changes to Brandon, Brenda and Dylan going to the movies, look closely. You will notice Brenda waiting for Dylan in front of the movie theater. Then later, they show the exact same scene when she is waiting for Dylan to show up on their movie date. It's very quick, but the editors apparently didn't catch it.

Stand (Up) and Deliver - S1-E17

Character mistake: In one scene Brenda refers to Brandon's political opponent as "Michael Miller" but a few scenes later David refers to the same guy as "Robert." He's referred to as Robert for the remainder of the episode.

Spring Training - S1-E20

Continuity mistake: In season 1 episode 12 while playing ouija board Brenda says she "doesn't know any dead people", but in this episode it's revealed that her aunt died 2 years ago from cancer.

The Party Fish - S2-E2

Continuity mistake: In the beginning of the episode Brenda takes her mom's coat to drama class and is wearing a blue shirt and white biker shorts. That night the parents go to the beach club. The next morning before school they show Brenda holding the coat and again in the blue shirt and white shorts she wore the "day before."

Necessity Is a Mother - S2-E10

Visible crew/equipment: Near the beginning of the episode, Brenda is sitting next to a tree talking to the group after Dylan gets up to leave, and a visible mic comes into view hanging center top of the screen.

Brandon Walsh: It was good to see you back at the Peach Pit tonight. I know it took a lot of courage.
Brenda Walsh: Brandon, please, I've had quite enough praise for a while.
Brandon Walsh: All right, you're a huge loser. How's that?
Brenda Walsh: Oh, much better.

Season 1 generally

Question: In the first few episodes, the Walshes live in a different house than the one they live in throughout the series. Nothing was ever even mentioned, I don't think. Was it a mistake, or did I miss the explanation?
