It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

The Gang Gets Invincible - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: When Mac and Dennis are talking to Doyle on the bus, watch the background outside of the window. Every time the camera cuts back and forth, the background changes. The most noticeable change is near the end of the scene, when the background changes from trees and shops passing, to suddenly the side of a bridge passing.

Hundred Dollar Baby - S2-E5

Continuity mistake: In the opening scene, as the gang is being mugged, watch the background. Towards the end of the scene, there are suddenly three cars parked on the street behind the gangs after a brief cut to the mugger, despite there having been no time for them to all appear.

Bums: Making a Mess All Over the City - S3-E14

Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode, when Charlie leaves the envelope marked "4 the Mare" outside the Municipal Building, as he walks away we see a janitor come by and throw the envelope away. However, seconds later when Charlie jumps into the air, we see the janitor walk and bend to pick up the envelope again.

The Gang Goes to Hell - S11-E9

Continuity mistake: Dee tells a woman on deck that a chair is hers. The woman shows that she already has a towel on the chair. Suddenly, her towel is fully laid out on the chair when she goes to sit down. At no point do we see her put the towel on the chair like it ends up.

Who Pooped the Bed? - S4-E7

Continuity mistake: In the scene in the bar, when the lights go out, when they come back on, Dee's handbag is first seen on the floor in front of her. Then, in another shot, the bag is shown behind her. (00:15:03)

Dennis Gets Divorced - S6-E2

Continuity mistake: When Dennis and Maureen argue after he gets home from the strip club with Mac, Mac is shown standing in the kitchen carrying a liquor bottle in a paper bag. After a quick cut to Maureen, Mac is sitting down and the bottle is shown out of the bag and on the table. After another cut to Maureen, the bottle is back in the bag and Mac is just taking it out. (00:07:30)

The Gang Goes Bowling - S16-E7

Continuity mistake: The score for the boys doesn't match what we see. For example, Mac's first roll was a 7, but the score shows 8. And Dennis gets a strike, but the score shows spare. Later, when the girls trick the boys into performing badly, none of that is reflected in the scores. At some point after the 6th frame, Mac and Charlie roll gutter balls multiple times, and each on the first roll at least once, none of which is in the scores.

Gun Fever Too: Still Hot - S9-E2

Continuity mistake: When Mac and Charlie are outside the school taking kids' cell phones, the principal comes out. We see Charlie holding 3 phones and his gun. When Mac holds up his sword saying he's going to take the principal out, Charlie points his gun at Mac and is no longer holding any phones and the principal has them. Then Charlie is seen holding 1 phone and handing it to the principal, who is holding 2 of them.

Mac and Charlie: White Trash - S6-E5

Continuity mistake: When trying to get into the club pool, Mac takes two beers from the 6-pack that are from the same side, so that the remaining beers are in a 3 x 1 configuration. Later, you see on the table and when they're walking away, the missing beers came from the front so the remaining beers are in a 2 x 2 configuration.

Frank's Brother - S7-E5

Other mistake: In the opening of this episode the screen reads "3:50pm On a Wednesday." When Gino (Frank's Brother) is reading the letters meant for Shadynasty, he says "Meet me at the airport, Friday, at 5:00, Terminal C." The gang and Gina then go along to the airport that very afternoon - a Wednesday - to try and meet Shadynasty and get her and Frank back together. And of course she is there, despite it being a Wednesday, not a Friday.

Hero or Hate Crime? - S12-E6

Charlie: All right, fine. I voluntarily stepped in the dog shit so that I would smell of dog shit. Happy?
Dennis: Less happy!
Dee: Why would it make me happy?!
Charlie: I was trying to cover up the smell of the skunk that I let spray me so that there would be no questions.
Dennis: Well, now I have more questions!
Dee: Of course you do.

Trivia: In the show, there's a running gag of Charlie being obsessed with the waitress and her constantly rejecting him. In real life Charlie (Charlie Day) and the waitress (Mary Elizabeth Ellis) are married. They married in 2006, although they were dating before the show started.
