Revealing mistake: When Homer brings Santa's Little Helper home, a single frame of Maggie falling off Marge's lap is misplaced.

Continuity mistake: When Agnes meets Bart and his friend, it cuts to Skinner, then to Bart's group and quickly back to Skinner. When it goes to Bart's group (before Skinner) Lewis is yellow like the rest, in all other scenes he is black.
Continuity mistake: When the robbery happens, Homer steps on the robber's feet, and we can tell he has large shoes. When they show video of the robbery on the news, the robber has regular shoes. During the hearing, they watch the video again. His shoes are back to long again.
Continuity mistake: When Sherri and Terri raise their hands and say "like us Mrs. Krabbapple" they raise their hands over their heads. Camera cuts and their hands are a lot lower. (00:04:20)
