Mr. Griffin Goes to Washington - S3-E3
Factual error: Neither the Lincoln Memorial nor the Washington Monument are visible from the East Front of the Capitol. Furthermore, the Lincoln Memorial is shown as being northeast of the Capitol, when in fact it is due west.
Factual error: When Meg is spinning her flag on the football field, she grips her flag at the bottom of the pole. She should grip in the middle of the pole, directly under the silk. It would be near-impossible to execute the spin she was doing if she was holding the pole that way.
Factual error: In the scene where Lois drops Peter off at the Renaissance Fair, when Peter gets out of the car, the door opens the wrong way (the way suicide doors open). This is noted to be a mistake in the director's commentary. (00:12:50)
Factual error: When Meg and Lois are in the back of a police car they escape by opening the back doors and getting away. The rear doors of a police car can only open from the outside, for obvious reasons and this escape could not be possible.
Factual error: When Carol gives birth there is no umbilical cord. (00:06:30)
A Very Special Family Guy Freakin' Christmas - S3-E16
Factual error: Brian touches the oven handle and gets burned. Not possible. Oven door handles do not get hot.
A Very Special Family Guy Freakin' Christmas - S3-E16
Factual error: A turkey does not burn and smoke 30 seconds after the oven timer goes off.
Factual error: When Peter has his KISS trivia game with Dave the nudist, he asks what the ad read that brought Peter Criss to KISS, and they both answer in unison: "Drummer willing to do anything to make it". In fact, the ad read: "Drummer with 15 years' experience willing to do anything to make it". As the original ad is referenced and shown in several biographies on KISS, as well as the "KISS: eXposed" video, it's not something these two trivia experts would have missed. (00:11:00)
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.
