The Dick Van Dyke Show

Hustling the Hustler - S2-E5

Other mistake: Laura and Rob do not like having guns in the house and Laura is terrified about having them in the house... Yet in this episode... There are 2 guns in the basement displayed right next to a giant deer head on the Cross beam in the middle of the room up high. Neither of them care that the guns are there.

My Husband Is Not a Drunk - S2-E6

Other mistake: If Rob is that easily hypnotized then when Rob's friend hypnotized Millie he would have gone out light a light same when he did Laura and Jerry. Rob would have been out right then and there for all 3 of them... Not just when he did Buddy.

What's in a Middle Name? - S2-E7

Deliberate mistake: Rob, Sally and Buddy's "old office" is exactly the same shape as Robs basement (except for the door in the center of the back wall. Instead of going upstairs it's all on 1 level. There's a door to the right which goes into a random room which we never get to see inside). (00:10:38)

Suggested correction: Since you listed multiple differences, it's obviously not "exactly the same." Filmmakers not building every set and prop from scratch is not a mistake. Modifying and reusing old sets is just an economic reality of production. If anything this should be under trivia.

Suggested correction: Rob specifically said he broke the tooth on a chicken bone that was in the sandwich.

Rob Petrie: At least I'll prove one thing tonight: Television writers marry the prettiest girls.
