Roseanne

Friends and Relatives - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: When Roseanne is talking on the phone to Jackie, she continually moves around the kitchen while preparing dinner. The extra-long phone cord goes from being completely wrapped around her waist to just being behind her, then wrapped around her again, without moving in a way that would unwind it.

Like, a New Job - S3-E4

Continuity mistake: Darlene and Becky's second-story bedroom window is on the side of the house and at the house's backside (D.J.'s room is at the front and the windows are also on the side). However, when the girls argue and throw each other's items out the window, everything falls into the front yard, as viewed from the living room. Even if they threw stuff from the house's front, the roof extends too far out below two smaller upper windows. Everything would land on the roof.

The Pied Piper of Lanford - S3-E25

Continuity mistake: In Ziggy's first appearance in the series (S2, EP. 16 "Born to Be Wild"), he says he has two kids. He states "I had to make mine. I checked them at birth, they're boys!" However in his second appearance in the series here, he states they were his girlfriend, Jill's, kids and the kids are back living with their father.

Suggested correction: Not really a mistake because based on the conversation with Dan, it was implied that Ziggy, who is flakey and unpredictable, was not really serious when he said the two boys were his biological kids.

Suggested correction: I'm not sure what the ruling on these types of mistakes is, but "Dances with Darlene" (ep23 and production code 425) was aired out of order. It was the last episode filmed in the season and meant to be a season finale, but aired prior to "Scenes from a Barbecue" (production code 423). One reason seems to be this is a Mother's Day episode and aired on the Tuesday before Mother's Day, and the next episode was Jay Sanders' last appearance.

Halloween - The Final Chapter - S8-E5

Continuity mistake: Roseanne becomes pregnant at the beginning of Season 7, and it is before the Halloween and Thanksgiving episodes, so she is in her first trimester during the holidays. However, Roseanne does not give birth until the following year in the Season 8 Halloween episode. Her pregnancy has lasted for well over a year.
