Diggers Split Up - S4-E20

Good Ole T.J. - S4-E40

Suggested correction: Gretchen tells the lunch lady that because she is one penny short, she will swap the chocolate milk (in her hand) for a regular. She puts the milk on her tray and walks off screen. Then, when T.J. walks past her, the camera pans over to Gretchen watching T.J. with that same chocolate milk on her tray she is holding. Gretchen got distracted by T.J.'s encounter with the lunch lady and stopped to watch him, but she was still going to swap the chocolate milk for a regular later on.

Continuity mistake: When Spinelli gets the ball to play in the field behind the trees, you can see lines that would indicate that the ball was a basketball. However, when the kids are playing kickball, it's obviously a kickball.

Suggested correction: He does, but this is simply a mistake Menlo makes as a character. And it is not a 'character mistake'; I can see many people making a very simple mistake like this while playing hopscotch. I know I probably have as a kid. Also, he lands on an 8 square, not a 10 square.

The Big Prank - S4-E2

Continuity mistake: In the time before King Bob tells his story about being the Prankster Prince, no one is on the jungle gym except TJ and his friends. But after Bob finishes, around 20 kids are on the jungle gym, plus TJ and co. There was not enough time for ALL those kids to get on top of the jungle gym from the time King Bob started his story to the time he finished.

Randall's Friends - S4-E12

Factual error: When Gretchen is typing the pardon on Mrs. Lemon's typewriter, the paper that she is typing on doesn't go up and out of the typewriter gradually as it should. It goes up all at once when she's almost done typing.

Theodore J. 'T.J.' Detweiler: Never kid a kid who hasn't had his recess.
