The Simpsons

Smart and Smarter - S15-E13

Factual error: The tongue Lisa sleeps on in the museum isn't anatomically correct. It shows the bitter and sweet taste buds as being side by side on the surface of the tongue. In reality, different taste buds are not in specific places on the tongue. I wouldn't normally complain, but this is supposed to be in a museum.

Summer of 4'2 - S7-E25

Continuity mistake: When Marge is cleaning the dishes on the morning after Bart reveals Lisa as a nerd, Marge is seen in close-up with a white necklace. In next shot of Bart and Lisa, as well as the rest of the scene, Marge has a red necklace.

Trash of the Titans - S9-E22

Continuity mistake: When we see the wide shot of all the houses going along the road, you can see that Moe's door is facing away from the Simpson's house. But in the next shot, Homer jumps in through Moe's door, it's like the tavern did a 180 degree turn.

Tree House of Horror VI - S7-E6

Continuity mistake: When the advertisement of Kent Brockman comes to life he is a thin cut out from a bill board, however the next time you see him he is in the shape of Kent Brockman and no longer thin.

Much Apu About Nothing - S7-E23

Continuity mistake: In the early scene where the Simpsons are gathered around the table to eat, you can see that they are eating slices of pie. However, on some of the long shots, the food on their plates changes and looks more like mashed potato and vegetables. Also, in the same scene, in one shot of Lisa, you can see Bart's hand over her plate, but when the angle changes, it is behind her plate.

Answer: Willy referred to an encounter he believed he had with actual aliens, while Wiggum thought he was referring to the arcade game.

Answer: The joke is that Willie was so addicted to Space Invaders that he believed it was reality: every time he played, he was actually defending the Earth from dangerous aliens. It's a surprise to him that it was actually a game.
