Audio problem: During the dream sequence, while the spirits of Christmas uses echoing sounds in their voices periodically, Fred's voice was not supposed to echo at all, but his voice can be heard echoing as well a few times.
Sanford and Son (1972)
1 audio problem in season 5 - chronological order
Starring: Redd Foxx, Demond Wilson, Don Bexley, LaWanda Page
Genres: Comedy
Visible crew/equipment: As Bruinhilda starts to come out to do her number, the shadow of the boom mic is on the wall.
Lamont Sanford: You know what they say, the truth will set you free.
Fred Sanford: Your uncle Edgar told the truth, and the judge gave him six months.
Trivia: Throughout the series, a number of times Fred mentions "Pluto water." It was a popular strongly laxative natural water product that was sold until 1971, when production and sales halted because lithium, one of the mineral salts, was declared a controlled substance. Sanford and Son debuted in 1972, so Fred couldn't have had this product throughout the series.
