Continuity mistake: Just before the end credits start rolling, CeCe is sitting at the kitchen table. Yetta walks towards her with half a cookie in her left hand and the box in her right hand.

Danny's Dead and Who's Got the Will? - S4-E12
Continuity mistake: At the start, when Fran joins Niles, she's holding a green mug in her left hand and a muffin in her right hand. But the mug and muffin suddenly switch hands when Fran and Niles head to the sofa.
Continuity mistake: Fran's belt changes when she is in the kitchen from a pink leather one to a zebra one and then back to the original.
Suggested correction: As soon as it cuts from the show's intro to the first shot in the kitchen, we see Fran buckling her old zebra-striped belt around her waist. When Niles picks up the artificial lemon tree we see Fran touching her belt, and as the camera faces Niles when he exits the kitchen Fran unbuckles her belt offscreen. In the next shot Fran's zebra-striped belt is in her hand, and she places it back in the box of her old stuff from her Ma's house. No continuity issue. Starting time code 00:03:35.
Continuity mistake: The smash vase is placed on the office desk by Niles, it keeps jumping back and forth between two different orientations between scenes. (00:10:34 - 00:12:57)
