Sectionals - S1-E13
Continuity mistake: In episode 13 of season 1 (Sectionals), during the five way split screen, the extras behind Mercedes and the ones behind Tina are the same but have different movements.
Continuity mistake: In "Hell-O", as Santana and Brittney are talking about the "hottest guys in the school", Santana's glass is almost empty. Yet two shots later, when she takes a drink, her glass is full. Also, when she says "Would you mind waiting in the car?" her glass is full and you can obviously see a slice of lemon in it. Yet in the next shot, when she says "And leave your credit card", her glass is only about 1/3 full and the lemon slice is gone.
Continuity mistake: In "Gives You Hell", while Rachel is sliding down the middle in the chair you can see Puck on the left then on the right. He couldn't move that fast in a second.
Continuity mistake: In "The Power of Madonna", as the girls are performing Express Yourself, near the end of the song the coats that Tina, Santana and Brittney have dropped disappear and reappear several times.
Continuity mistake: In "The Power of Madonna", during the Cheerios stilts routine, as the people on stilts lift one leg one after the other, they are in a V shape, and there are both girls and boys on stilts. Yet in the very next shot, as the people on stilts swing the other Cheerios around, there are only 3 Cheerios, all guys, on stilts, and they are in a straight line.
Visible crew/equipment: In "The Power of Madonna", just before Sue drops the Madonna CD onto Figgin's desk, a camera is briefly visible over her right shoulder.
Continuity mistake: During the song express yourself, whilst the girls are dancing on the stage Quinn appears to have a flat stomach but she is supposed to be pregnant at this stage.
Other mistake: In the scene at the lockers with Brittany, Santana mentions having trouble finding a younger man per Sue's orders. However, Santana is a senior in season 3, which would make her a sophomore in season 1. Therefore, she could easily just date a freshman instead of needing Finn.
Continuity mistake: During "Home", when Mercedes is singing "Beautiful", Quinn stands up to join her. When she passes behind Mercedes, she stops and puts her hands on her stomach. Yet in the next shot, she passes Mercedes a second time and once again stops with her hands on her stomach.
Continuity mistake: During "Bad Reputation", as the kids are singing "Ice Ice Baby", their sheets of music continually change position, especially with the people sitting down. For example, in the first shot Mercedes is holding her music in her right hand. In the next shot it's down on her lap. In the third shot she's holding it with both hands, and in the last shot it's in her right hand again.
Laryngitis - S1-E18
Continuity mistake: During "Laryngitis", Puck pulls Mercedes up to come sing "Lady is a Tramp" with him. Yet in the very next shot, just as she starts singing, she stands up again. So she stood up twice.
Laryngitis - S1-E18
Continuity mistake: During the "Lady is a Tramp" number, Puck puts on a hat with the front of the brim flipped down. The brim miraculously flips up and back down throughout the scene.
Continuity mistake: When Artie tries to walk with crutches after the "step dance" practice with Tina, he falls down violently. Immediately after the fall, the crutch is still attached to his left arm, which is angled away from his body. In the very next shot, the crutch is almost a foot away from his arm, which lies now at a different angle. (00:10:05)
Continuity mistake: During "Theatricality", when the boys are singing "Beth", just as Puck sings "Me and the boys are Playin'" for The First Time, Finn is visible sitting behind Quinn. Yet Finn went to sit down and sing with Puck and is obviously sitting with the boys in the next wide shot.
Continuity mistake: When Rachel and Ms. Corcoron sing "Poker Face", near the end they switch places between shots.
Factual error: In season two the show makes Dalton look like it's in a suburb of Lima. Dalton Academy is suppose to be located in Westerville, OH, which is two hours southeast of Lima. Kurt & Blaine would not be able to go to the "Lima Bean" coffee shop every day if this was the case.
Continuity mistake: During "Blame It on the Alcohol", when Quinn is shouting at Puck, her hair is messy and straight. Yet a little while after, during "Don't You Want Me", her hair is curly and styled perfectly.
Audio problem: During the beginning of Rachel's "Baby One More Time" fantasy, the tapping sounds and her pencil's movements don't match up.
Answer: Coach Sylvester is generally bullying to most staff and students but she particularly dislikes the glee club because they compete with her cheerleading squad for limited school funds.
