Factual error: Throughout the series we are told over and over that Cory and Shawn have known each other forever. We see the boys and Topanga meet when they are about 6 years old, and Cory says at one point that Mr. Feeny has always been their teacher. But in this episode Mr. Feeny says Shawn was born in Ohio, lived in Oklahoma and was in and out of 5 schools by the age of 12. This implies that the boys did not meet until middle school, (age 12, when Shawn arrived in PA).

1 factual error in season 3
Starring: William Daniels, Rider Strong, Ben Savage, Betsy Randle
Cory's Alternative Friends - S1-E4
Continuity mistake: Shawn claims his "sister, Stacey" uses the straightening stuff all the time. This is the only mention of her ever during the entire run of the show; and when Jack joins the show he is established as Shawn's only sibling.
A Long Walk To Pittsburgh (2) - S4-E17
Trivia: Topanga is talking to Cory and she says, "My Aunt Prudence wouldn't even know who Romeo and Juliet are!" When her Aunt Prudence knocks on the door, she is played by actress Olivia Hussey, who played Juliet, in the 1968 film Romeo and Juliet, also starring Leonard Whiting as Romeo.
Janitor Dad - S4-E6
Question: When Chet and Verna are arguing about Chet getting a job, visible in the background is a painting of what I believe is an oak tree on a yellow background. Does anybody know the name and/or artist of this painting? My Grandparents used have a painting similar to it (if not the same one) and it also looks very similar to (and possibly the inspiration for) the cover art for the debut album of the band Days of the New.
