Factual error: After the failure to get a new car, the family is sitting around disconsolately watching TV, when a commercial for a new Camaro comes on. However, the Camaro shown is a second generation unit, not introduced until February of 1970, and the Arnolds are still stuck in 1969.
The Wonder Years (1988)
1 mistake in The Family Car - chronological order
Starring: Daniel Stern, Fred Savage, Alley Mills, Dan Lauria
Wayne Arnold: Butthead.
Question: Did this show have an episode in which Wayne was stood up by a date, or he couldn't convince a girl to go out with him? Then Kevin told him that the girl thinks he is pathetic. I described this moment in the "General Questions" section here, and someone said it might be this show. Thanks.
