Biology 101 - S3-E1

Visible crew/equipment: At the beginning of the episode, after Pierce rejoins the group and Jeff and the others begin to leave the room, watch Britta as she stands up. When she turns away from the camera, you can see the actress' microphone-pack in the back of her jeans briefly. (It's hard to spot but it's there, and is confirmed in the commentary track.).

Geography of Global Conflict - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: When Annie starts to throw her tantrum, she knocks stuff off the table, including the microphone and small mic stand. When she's lying on the table, the mic stand is back on the table. It back on the floor when she and Jeff leave, although the Uruguay sign is now back on the table.

Geography of Global Conflict - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: When Britta is in a cage, before Chang walks in, a couple pass her and are walking out the double doors, where both doors are open. After Chang steps up to the cage and the camera shot changes, the couple is further away from the doors and walking out again, only this time one of the doors is closed.

Competitive Ecology - S3-E3

Other mistake: Since Annie had completed the terrarium the group should have at least received a passing grade since the Professor made them a group of 7.

Advanced Gay - S3-E6

Continuity mistake: We know from this episode that Pierce's father is alive, but at the beginning of episode 1-7 Pierce's mother is on the other end of the phone and speaks about seeing his father's "ghost," as if his father has passed away. (00:02:00)

Suggested correction: Pierce explains in a later episode that his mother liked to believe that his father was dead.

That's not a proper connection. Her "liking to believe" his father was dead is not her literally thinking he's dead- she just wishes he was dead. So she should know enough to know she couldn't have been seeing his ghost. It's a mistake because they decided to write Pierce's father into the show on a later date.

Foosball and Nocturnal Vigilantism - S3-E9

Character mistake: In the bonus clip where we see Leonard's online video about frozen food, the first thing he says is, "This is November 29th". However, if you look under the video, you can see the video was uploaded on Nov 26, 2011, which is three days earlier.

Introduction to Finality - S3-E22

Other mistake: During Leonard's "Let's Potato Chips" YouTube video during the ending credits, you can see the video reaches the end of the load/play bar (watch the circle), yet the video continues for several seconds. Once the circle reaches the end of the load/play bar, the video is over and won't continue.

Horror Fiction in Seven Spooky Steps - S3-E5

Trivia: This episode features a pay-off for a joke that was established in the first two seasons. In season one, the character Professor Slater mentions the name "Beetlejuice" while trying to recall Britta's name. In season two, Britta refers to Jeff's underwear as "stripey Beetlejuice numbers" during a conversation. And in this episode, Annie says that Britta has the "Beetlejuice" soundtrack on her computer. As Annie says the name, the character Beetlejuice is visible briefly walking by a window in the background, his name having been said three times. (In the film "Beetlejuice", he is summoned once his name is spoken three times).

Laws of Robotics & Party Rights - S6-E5

Question: Something I don't get... If Willy the prisoner is not really a killer, as revealed in the climax, then why did he try to literally kill Jeff earlier? It goes against the whole joke of the episode - that Willy is actually a fairly harmless fraud who never actually killed anyone despite his claims. He was just sort-of a loser who built a mystique around the fact he was (wrongfully) convicted of murder. The fact that he did try to kill Jeff therefore just doesn't quite add up in my head.

Answer: His attempt to "kill" Jeff was to roll at him as an iPad on a stick. He knew it wouldn't work, but it played to the story that he was a killer as he knew Jeff would tell people about it, or attempt to retaliate for it.
