Boys Do Cry - S5-E15

Continuity mistake: At the Little Miss Texas pageant, just as Lois finishes saying "It's what you do when you're in Texas", she and Stewie walk past a judge and a little girl. In a close-up of Stewie, the judge and little girl have suddenly become a plant. (00:15:25)

Casual Person

No Chris Left Behind - S5-E16

Continuity mistake: Peter says "Oh crap" as soon as he realises Ernie the Giant Chicken is looking at him in the window. When the camera pans over to Ernie, he is standing an inch away from the glass. It then cuts to a wide angle where Ernie jumps through the window, and he has instantly moved back a few inches. (00:07:00)

Casual Person

No Chris Left Behind - S5-E16

Continuity mistake: When the family goes to Morning Wood Academy, the sign in the front says No Irish and Irish OK underneath that. The next time we see the sign, those words are replaced with the date the academy was founded.

No Chris Left Behind - S5-E16

Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode Chris is taking his suitcase upstairs. He walks in front the couch where everyone is sitting and heads towards the stairs. Next shot shows him walking behind the couch as if he entered the front door and walked behind the couch and over to the stairs.

Blue Harvest - S6-E1

Continuity mistake: After Vader (Stewie) kills Obi-Wan, Luke yells out and then the shot shows storm troopers firing at him with Vader in the background. Vader's lightsaber is blue, when it should be red. It is red in the previous and next shots. (00:34:00)

Stewie Kills Lois (1) - S6-E5

Continuity mistake: Stewie puts the gun and pictures in a bag and throws them in the trash can to get rid of the evidence. When Joe takes the lid off, he just reaches in like Stewie had put them in there separately and not in a bag.

Peter's Daughter - S6-E8

Continuity mistake: Meg comes in the kitchen and Peter pulls out her chair for her. Next shot of Meg shows a plate of food appear out of nowhere. Peter, Lois and Chris had a plate in front of them and there was no plate in front of Meg at any time. There was no other food in sight on the counter or stove either. (00:15:00)

McStroke - S6-E9

Continuity mistake: After Peter has a stroke, later on he asks Lois for a beer. She gets it from the fridge and gives it to him without opening it yet he immediately takes a drink and spills it on his shirt.

Underage Peter - S14-E14

Plot hole: They're in the Clam complaining that they can't drink when they make the revelation that Brian can because he's technically 56. But Quagmire should be able to drink, as in a much earlier episode, he's revealed to be over 60.

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: Quagmire considers the rest of them to be his best friends. He isn't drinking because they can't drink. He is complaining because since his friends can't drink - he won't drink, so he is still pissed.

It's still a plot hole considering Quagmire's age. I think the writers messed up big time.

You make a good point, but it's awkward to be that one person who is drinking while surrounded by people who can't. So, I understand the correction that was submitted above. Because his friends are not drinking, he now feels that he can't.

It's 100% a mistake. Quagmire simply would buy them alcohol the same way Brian did when they realized he could.

When You Wish Upon a Weinstein - S3-E22

Peter Griffin: You better watch who you're calling a child Lois. Because if I'm a child then you know what that makes you? A paedophile, and I'll be damned if I'm gonna stand here and be lectured by a pervert.

Business Guy - S8-E9

Question: In the episode, Peter threatens to fire Lois, and she responds with "you wouldn't" and Peter then replies with "Oh really, does the name Lacey Chabert mean anything to you?" which in turn makes Lois go wide eyed and reply with "OK, I'll behave" and Peter then goes on to add "Yes you will" Can anyone explain this joke if it is a joke to comprehend?

Answer: Lacey Chabert was the actress who originally voiced Meg in early episodes. She left of her own accord due to being in school and other acting work; Seth MacFarlane has stated there was no tension with her leaving, but it makes for a handy joke for the show.
