The Unbearable Blindness of Laying - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: When the family leaves for the basketball game Peggy brings the wrong foam finger (not the basketball one) so Hank turns around to get it. It shows him walking into the house, finding it but also finding what he thinks is laundry all over the floor. He also hears what he thinks is innocently the washer or dryer running. He follows the noise towards the kitchen, slowly opens the door to find his mother and Gary presumably having sex on the kitchen table. The problem here is that the kitchen has no door. From inside the kitchen in any episode it is never visible. I checked and further into this episode while opening presents it shows an entrance to the kitchen from the living area where Hank entered and there is no door on that side either. In truth it is an open doorway.

The Unbearable Blindness of Laying - S2-E11

Continuity mistake: The sliding glass door at the Hills' house leads into the kitchen. On the wall next to the door is the chore list and a cutout of the state of Texas, and sitting on the floor is a trash can. There is also no sign of the kitchen table which sits right inside that door as well. Sometimes a trash can is there, etc. When Hank storms out of the house while rest of the family is opening presents, there is a shot when Peggy comes out after him and it shows back inside the door. Instead of what is normally on the wall to the right if you were looking from the outside in, you see a small dresser and all the wall looks to be either a picture or a mirror.

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.

Trivia: One of the show's creators made a cartoon about a retarded pig. Boomhauer's voice is based on the voice of an angry viewer who called when he was offended by the cartoon.

Suggested correction: The person was actually complaining about "Beavis and Butthead." For some reason, they called the show "Porky's Butthole."
