Groin Pulls - S2-E4

Visible crew/equipment: Towards the end when Tim is testing out of the pulley system talking to Jill, when Jill says "I'm sorry for putting ice down your pants," you can briefly see someone in a blue shirt near Tim's left leg.

Heavy Meddle - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: In the beginning of the episode, when Karen takes a Diet Coke from the refrigerator, she starts pouring it into a glass, and fills the glass halfway up. Cut to Jill for a second, then back to Karen, who is still pouring, but the glass is now only about a quarter full.

Let's Did Lunch - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: When Tim and Dave are outside talking about Dave seeing another woman, Tim's Binford sweatshirt changes from clean to having some type of staining on the lettering through out several cuts. It's mainly visible on the B, R and D on Tim's sweatshirt when it switches from clean to stained or dirty.

Dances With Tools - S2-E16

Continuity mistake: Just before Brad runs out of the kitchen the camera is on him. There is a book on the counter. The shot changes and the book is gone. The book and other things appear back on the counter later on in the scene.

Bowling255

Bye Bye Birdie - S2-E18

Revealing mistake: Towards the end of episode 2.18, "Bye, Bye Birdie", Tim drops to the ground in the back yard while trying to avoid the helicopter. When Tim gets up, you can see the grass (carpet) move and wrinkle up.

Bye Bye Birdie - S2-E18

Revealing mistake: When Tim is falling, crawling and rolling on the snow-covered ground in the final scene, none of the snow clings to him or his clothing. He does not even get damp, even when he is lying on his back in the same spot for several seconds.

Bye Bye Birdie - S2-E18

Continuity mistake: After Tim smashes Al's display cabinet, it cuts to Tim, then back to the workbench and the wrecked cabinet. The pieces of china and the pieces of wood on the bench differ in the two shots. In the first shot, there are two whole teacups, one whole plate and a bit of a shelf on the bench (the shelf is on the right side of the screen), in the second shot we see a broken tea cup, one broken and one whole plate, and the piece of shelf has disappeared.

Karate Or Not, Here I Come - S2-E19

Continuity mistake: When Jill is standing up to the other woman at Mark's karate class, she asks her "Will you stop calling my son 'Stick Boy'?" As the other woman replies "Then feed him something", her hands are on her hips, but when the angle changes, she has her right hand on her chest, with no time to move her hands between shots.

To Build Or Not To Build - S2-E23

Other mistake: When Randy and Brad complete the magic trick and open up the trunk they are pointing it towards the audience for us to see. But Jill reacts as if she is seeing it too, which, based on where she is sitting and where the trunk is open would be impossible. She would have had to get up and go look or have the trunk turned 90° to make it work. Neither happens.

Neighbours - S8-E20

Tim: Al, why don't you tell us your favorite part of gardening?
Al: Well, I'd have to say it's getting down and dirty with my hoe.

Answer: No the guy sent in a picture of himself because he thought he looked like Al. So they brought him on the show as his brother.

Siblings can have different last names. One might have a different father. Maybe one legally changed his name for some reason, or a man took his wife's last name (not as common, but it happens). Of course, these two actors are not actually related, but I just wanted to point this out.
