Episode Two: The Series Has Landed - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: When Fry and Leela get to the moon landing site, Leela climbs in the moonlander hatch with the oxygen tank to which Fry's oxygen hose is connected. The hose is visible as it leads in to the hatch. When Leela pops her head out the hatch, the hose is suddenly gone. Then in the next shot, it's back, but lying underneath the hatch. (00:17:50)

Episode Two: The Series Has Landed - S1-E2

Other mistake: When the Moon Patrol officers throw Bender out of the airlock onto the moon's surface, they are exposed to hard vacuum, but they aren't wearing space suits. Throughout the episode it is established that the moon's "atmosphere" is a vacuum and protective suits are necessary - when the farmer removes his helmet he begins to asphyxiate instantly.

Continuity mistake: When the team are gathered round the table at the beginning of the episode, note their positions when the video screen is turned on.

I, Roommate - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When Bender sits beside Fry on the couch, Bender's sitting at the end with his arm on the rest. When Fry says 'Leela, we're trying to watch TV' Bender's moved to the middle of the couch. The garbage next to Fry and the contents on the table also change in this scene. (00:03:35)

I, Roommate - S1-E3

I, Roommate - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: When the TV first loses transmission and fills with static Fry taps it and it tunes back in, he then does his Fonz impression facing the sofa, it then cuts and he's facing the TV. (00:12:45)

Sanguis

I, Roommate - S1-E3

Other mistake: When the crew are leaving Fry's new apartment, Amy slips on the banana skin again and falls over, and for some reason Fry tries to shut the door without her leaving. Maybe it was easier than drawing her getting up, but still worth a look. (00:15:30)

More trivia for Futurama

Answer: The initial number is 0101100101 = 357. When reflected in a mirror, however, it reads 1010011010 = 666 (the number of the Beast). It is a parody of The Shining, where the words Red Rum are seen as the word murder in the mirror.
