German Guy - S9-E11

Continuity mistake: When Franz Gutentag falls off the step towards the end of the episode, Herbert is on the porch of the house and reaches out to him. When we see the shot of Gutentag falling in slow motion and the birds fly away, there is no sign of Herbert on the porch.

Quagmire's Baby - S8-E6

Continuity mistake: Peter is sitting on the couch talking on the radio. You see the phone sitting on a table beside the couch. But when Peter picks up the phone to call Quagmire, the phone is right beside him, without him ever moving it from the table.

Welcome Back Carter - S9-E3

Continuity mistake: When Peter is eating dinner with Lois and her parents, on his plate there is mashed potatoes and meat loaf. Peter shovels potatoes in his mouth then spits them out all over the table. When his plate is shown again, the meat loaf has disappeared from the plate even though he didn't touch it.

Trading Places - S9-E13

Continuity mistake: When Carter destroys the bench after being the first contestant out of wining the old dirt bike, in the digger he backs off screen and you hear a crash and a car alarm, but when the shot is widened you see two cars where he backed into and both are undamaged.

Baby Not On Board - S7-E4

Plot hole: Stewie gets out of the car seat and goes back to bed, leaving the blanket at the bottom of the seat. When they get to New York, Lois goes to get him out and realises he's gone. But when they started the trip the blanket was covering the entire seat to make it look like Stewie was still in it. So who ever "covered" him up knew he wasn't in the seat before they set off. (00:13:45)

Grumpy Old Man - S10-E9

Trivia: One of the cutaway gags is about someone who survived 9/11 because he was late for work watching late night football. Seth MacFarlane missed his flight, which would have been one of the flights to crash into the World Trade Center, because his agent had given him the incorrect departure time. The plane was scheduled to depart at 7:45 AM and his agent had told him it was departing at 8:15 AM. By the time Seth arrived the boarding had been closed and he was told he would have to catch a later flight.

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.
