The Brady Bunch

The Tattle-Tale - S2-E10

Continuity mistake: When Cindy goes downstairs to ask "isn't anyone coming up to say goodnight?" or something similar, when Alice is talking to Mike and Carol about Sam not coming over, Cindy is wearing her pyjamas. She then gets in trouble and goes straight back up to her room and she is suddenly dressed in jeans and a top - her hair has different hair ties in it too.

What Goes Up . . . - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: When Bobby attempts to climb the treehouse for the second time, he climbs to the very top and looks up in fright. From his POV we see he has two more wooden bars to climb, despite being at the top a split second ago.

Confessions, Confessions - S2-E12

Continuity mistake: When the vase gets broken, it's easy to see that one large piece flies off the chest of drawers onto the floor. And when the boys look down at the broken vase from upstairs, three pieces are on top of the chest of drawers. But Greg - seen later trying to fix it - says something to the effect of "Good thing it only broke into three pieces." So what about the piece that flew off onto the floor? (00:02:00)

Ghost Town, U.S.A. - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: When Zaccariah steals the last piece of fried chicken off the plate, the plate is left completely clean, yet when Alice goes to get the piece a few seconds later, there's a sizable grease stain on the plate. (00:14:05)

Grand Canyon or Bust - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: At home, before leaving for the Grand Canyon, the trailer was much taller than the car, and looked more like a motor home. After that, it becomes a different vehicle more like a trailer, about the same height as the car. When the prosecutor steals the car, it's the tall version, and when they arrive at the Grand Canyon to look at the view, there's nothing attached to the car bumper. When they leave the Grand Canyon it's the shorter version, back to being a trailer.

Super Grover

The Private Ear - S3-E9

Continuity mistake: When Greg and Marcia are taping the fake message for Peter, Greg says, "Bang, he buckles down and brings home an A." But when Peter listens to the message a minute later (16:15), Greg's statement is now "Bang, he brings home an A." (00:14:50)

54-40 and Fight - S1-E15

Question: Would someone please explain to me why Marcia did not just simply remove her dangly bracelet that endangered the girls standing in the house of cards competition after Carol said "Oh Marcia, Marcia, your bracelet"? It would have made it less stressful on her not to mention her team, and she wouldn't have had to restrain it with her other hand.

Answer: The dangling bracelet was used for dramatic purposes - to keep the audience on edge.

Answer: There were several episodes throughout the run of the show where Marcia was infatuated with a guy she went to school with. This bracelet could have been a gift from her then-boyfriend; as such, she would not want to take it off, as a sign of loyalty. A stupid thing to do, of course, but it's not a mistake for a character simply to be dumb.
