Tanks For The Memories - S5-E15

Factual error: Tim accidentally fires an M2 .50 machine gun while on a tank. Ricochets are shown sparking all over other tanks while people dive for cover. A) Bullets don't spark when they ricochet, and B) the M2 had a blank firing adapter installed; it couldn't have been firing bullets.

Grumpy Scot

An Older Woman - S7-E13

Continuity mistake: This episode establishes that Tim is three years older than Jill. However, in the episode "Ex Marks The Spot" (Season 2), Tim said that he broke up with Stacy after high school, then met Jill at college. And Jill wouldn't date him unless he promised that everything was over with Stacy. If Jill is three years younger, she would have been only fifteen when Tim broke up with Stacy, not at college.
