Bad Girls, Bad Girls Whatcha Gonna Do - S7-E3

Other mistake: When Bobby is caught spray-painting the fence, Hank says that he and Peggy took their wedding photos in front of that fence. In the episode "As Old As The Hills", part one, there is a photo of Hank and Peggy living in an apartment after they got married.

Goodbye Normal Jeans - S7-E4

Continuity mistake: After Hank calls Bobby into the room to talk about the woman's magazine Peggy discovered, you can see Peggy's hair is a little messed but nothing in it. A few shots after Hank asks Bobby about making the turkey there is a close up shot of Peggy and she has a few stains in her hair which disappear in the next shot. The stains look very similar to the ones she gets a little later on when she falls on the turkey.

Pigmalion - S7-E9

Continuity mistake: The door to the slaughterhouse (which Luanne blocks with the barrel) changes configurations between shots. When Trip is trying to get in, the exterior is blue with a doorknob. After Peggy busts in, it is white with a pushbar across the middle. The interior is white with a pushbar in all shots.

Megalo Dale - S7-E10

Continuity mistake: Chuck Mangione is shown living in the Mega Lo Mart, having faked his death after the explosion. Yet, he was shown in "Death Of A Propane Salesman" at Buckley's funeral.

Vision Quest - S7-E12

Other mistake: When Hank tells John Redcorn that his family is not Jewish, John is noticeably surprised. However, in the episode "Revenge of the Lutefisk" (3x21), John was at church with the Hills and Gribbles. He already knew that they are not Jewish.

I Never Promised You an Organic Garden - S7-E18

Continuity mistake: During the scene where Peggy still finds insects over the tomatoes, she goes to show Hank one of the tomatoes. As she is showing the tomato it has around six or seven flies buzzing around it. The next shot shows Peggy from behind still holding the tomato, and you can see there is not one fly around the tomato anymore.

Be True to Your Fool - S7-E19

Deliberate mistake: Hank only discovers the tattoo on the back of his head after having his hair shaved off. There is no way, however, he wouldn't have noticed it before this. The tattoo artist had to shave hair off the back of his head before putting on the tattoo. While he might have not realised right away, the pain the following day and the fact that he would have noticed a large part of his hair missing would make it unavoidable.

Lummie

Night and Deity - S7-E21

Other mistake: Dale laughs at Nancy for picking up the diazinon, instead of the bird repeller gel. He then picks up a bag, goes up the ladder, and when he turns the bag around, it says diazanon on the bag he picked up. The only gel in the scene was what Nancy picked up.

Maid in Arlen - S7-E22

Continuity mistake: At the end when Laoma is crying and hugging Bill, the tears on her face are on her cheeks. As she asks, "Wait, Astronaut who?" the tears are now just found near her eyes. As Bill explains, she has her hands on his shoulders. She then turns and the tears are not even in her eyes now.

Patch Boomhauer - S8-E1

Other mistake: When Boomhauer sees Katherine at the gas station, she says, "It's been twelve years." When Hank talks to Boomhauer in his garage, he mentions Boomhauer breaking up with Katherine twenty years ago.

Stressed for Success - S8-E19

Character mistake: Ben Stein asks a chemistry question about -273° Kelvin. The problem is, the scientific community never uses the word 'degrees' when referring to Kelvin. The correct way to say it would have been, "-273 Kelvin is also known as what?" Also Kelvin cannot be negative since 0 kelvin (approx -273° Celsius) is absolute zero.

Hysteria 1987

A Rover Runs Through It - S9-E1

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, after Peggy's mother calls, Hank says "What's it been? Twenty years?" But they spoke with Peggy's mother during the events of the episode "Happy Hanks Giving." Hank spoke to her on the phone, Peggy shouted at the phone, and Hank commented on Mrs. Platter not approving of propane.

Death Buys a Timeshare - S9-E3

Plot hole: During a heatwave, the Hills are dying from the heat and even look for a pool to swim in to cool off.This makes no sense, they live in a ranch house which would have central air or at worst some window air conditioners.

Yard, She Blows! - S9-E4

Other mistake: In this episode, Peggy is terrible at gardening. In the fourth season, she brought flowers to the man who was making foot fetish videos. She said that the flowers were "so pretty" and were from her "own garden."

Mutual of Omabwah - S9-E8

Deliberate mistake: Why wouldn't Hank just use a credit card to cover the outstanding payment he owes on his insurace? It was established in the episode Rich Hank, Poor Hank that Hank has an emergency credit card and could easily use that and would be covered immediately. His panic over not having insurance would outweigh any problems he might have with using his credit card and the fact that he is dealing with an insurance company there is no conceivable way they wouldn't accept a credit card or ask if he has a credit card to cover the payment. The mistake seems to be deliberate as it sets the story up for Hank going somewhat over the edge with protecting the house.

The Wedding of Bobby Hill - S3-E14

Trivia: During Hanks's conversation with Bobby when he tells him that he will have to marry Luanne, look at the shelf behind Bobby. There is a Bart Simpson doll there. A few years before this was featured the Hill family was in the crowd at one of the pee wee football games in the Simpsons episode "Bart Star".
