Glee

Correction: It's mentioned later that it broke shortly thereafter.

Captain Defenestrator

A Very Glee Christmas - S2-E10

Corrected entry: At the end Artie is given a ReWalk by Coach Beiste to help him walk again. However, at the time, the ReWalk was only available for use in rehabilitation centers, and not yet for personal use. In addition, it's highly unlikely that Coach Beiste would have the funds to buy a ReWalk.

Correction: The ReWalk became commercially available in January of 2010. Since it's entirely likely that a high school football coach might have contacts in the field of Sports Medicine, Coach Bieste probably just pulled a few strings and got one a few days early.

Captain Defenestrator

Correction: This is a deliberate mistake and a tribute to the original Rocky Horror film, where the shape of the heart changes. Most people think this error was deliberate in the original film too.

Born This Way - S2-E18

Corrected entry: The posters that Lauren puts up of Quinn's former appearance say "Vote for Lucy Caboosey" on them, yet Quinn only told Lauren she used to be called 'Lucy Caboosey' about 5 minutes earlier.

Correction: Lauren is very explicit about the level of research she did. She obviously talked to some of Quinn's former classmates, who naturally revealed Quinn's onetime nickname. None of what Quinn said was news to Lauren.

Phixius

Correction: Many coffee houses write the person's name on the cup so the barista knows what name to call out when the drink is finished being made. Not a mistake as it is the character's name on the cup, not the actor's.

Correction: It's actually 5000 / 0.25 = 20,000 He's saying they would have to sell 20,000 pieces of Taffy at 25cents each to get $5000.

Correction: This was as a joke, as revealed in a cast interview. They knew that the math was incorrect but kept it.

Season 2 generally

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.

Will: Hold on a second, Sue.
Sue: I resent being told to hold on to anything, William. I will not be treated like a second-class citizen because of my gender.

Show generally

Question: Why don't any of the bullies ever get in trouble for throwing slushies at the members of the Glee club?

Answer: The show is purposefully stylized and over the top. It is not designed to be an accurate, realistic representation of American high school. The idea that the glee club is so unpopular other students can literally throw garbage at them with impunity is an over-exaggeration of how glee club is considered "un-cool" compared to things like football. However, there is a second way of looking at it. The audience is simply never shown anyone getting into any trouble for throwing slushies. Just because we don't see it doesn't mean it never happened.
