Brian the Bachelor - S4-E7

Other mistake: In season 4 episode 7, 'Brian the Bachelor'. Cleveland is sitting in a chair in a waiting room and is getting really nervous. Peter tries to help him by tying him to a chair and when that doesn't work, he takes off all of their clothes. Peter ties Cleveland's hands to the arms of the chair and then takes Cleveland's clothes off. He couldn't have taken the shirt off while Cleveland's hands were tied to something without untying him or ripping the shirt, which he didn't do.

Holy Crap - S2-E2

Audio problem: When Peter introduces the pope to his friends at work, and he is saying "Remember when we got that stripper for Charlie and it turned out to be his son? I think this is gonna top it" or something along those lines), Peter's mouth very obviously does not sync up with the words being said.

Long John Peter - S6-E13

Continuity mistake: When we first see the English guy in his car, his crates of goods are stacked askew in the back seat. After Peter's crew shoot the car several times and the car is half-wrecked, the boxes are suddenly neatly packed into the seats. Moments later, we see the boxes piled randomly again. This change happens a couple more times before the scene is over.

Untitled Griffin Family History - S4-E27

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Al Cowlings and his "trusty white bronco" help the Griffins escape, his white horse changes color to light brown during the passing view then changes back to white in the following overhead view.

From Method to Madness - S3-E18

Revealing mistake: After the fight between Stewie and Olivia at the concert hall (followed by their breakup), Simon tells Stewie that the act without Olivia is "over" as he turns to walk off the screen. However, before Simon is even partially out of the shot, he completely disappears. (00:18:45)

Lethal Weapons - S3-E7

Continuity mistake: When Peter is calling for people to fight Lois, he is standing next to a sign that says "Fight the ass kicking housewife" and has metal rings at the top. When it moves to a closer shot, a hyphen has appeared between "ass" and "kicking". Then, after the space where the commercial break would have been, the sign now says "$10.00" and there are no metal rings. Finally, in the next shot, the sign says "Fight the..." and has metal rings on top. (00:06:55)

Mind over Murder - S1-E4

Audio problem: When Peter goes down to the basement, the Pawtucket Patriot guy appears and Peter thinks he's coming on to him. He says, "Listen, I don't swing that way, pal. I got a date with my female wife, I just came down to get some beers." However, his lips very obviously do not sync up with those words.

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.
