In "Recollections," Whit says he bought The Fillmore Recreation Center and its adjoining land. But in "The Curse," Whit says to Connie and Eugene that he doesn't own the land around Whit's End, and just the building itself!

This goof was also explained in later episodes by saying that Whit had thought that he had purchased the land, but he couldn't because it was part of city property. (This is also an interesting plot point in album 50)

Here's one: In Seeing Red, Liz said Mandy had brown hair, but in Sunset Bowlawater Crackers (Mandy's goldfish) says Mandy has blonde hair.

Yes, I always imagined Mandy as a brunette because of that episode.

I found 2 in "Columbus: The Grand Voyage". They keep saying Columbus was in search of new land. Actually, he was looking for a sea rout to China. Also, they say his crew gave him one more day before turning around. He actually got 3 days.

What about the one in the GRC when Penny says she met with Skint twice but lists THREE times??
However, I can't decide if this was them trying to make Penny appear...hmm... a bit behind, or, an actual goof. You know?

In "Bassett Hounds" Wooton's grandfather said that Wooton's dad name was Winslow Bassett, but in "Wooing Wooton" Wooton said his dad's name was Winston Bassett. Did Wooton's grandfather forget his own son's name? Or did Wooton forget his dad's name because of his nervous rush to introduce him?

I just noticed one the other day in "the Search for Whit." Jason calls Alfred Brownlee (or however you spell it ;) ) Albert twice.

At the beginning of the Green Ring Conspiracy, Mr. Skint said that three people were hurt from the plane crash and were taken to the hospital. But at that point nobody knew if there was a third passenger or not, and he had certainly not been taken to the hospital yet.

In "secrets" Connie dyes her hair purple. She walks into whits end and nick mulligan is behind the counter. Nick doesn't recognize her, so she says him and says, "Mac, it's me," but she's supposed to say, "Nick it's me." Katie Leigh meant to say "nick" but she said "Mac"

Yeah and later when Whit is talking to Eugene in Vol 46ish Eugene says "I know you don't believe in coincidences."

Actually, the route was for India. Indeed, the episode kinda failed.

I just noticed a huge goof in the episode Waylaid in the Windy City. Whit has the computer in a suitcase that is handcuffed to his arm, then he gives the key to the Police Officer (who later turns out to be working for Blackgaard. So while Whit has this computer locked to his hand in a suitcase, he somehow is able to program the computer to erase everything the moment it's opened.

This isn't possible. If a computer is in a locked suitcase, then you can't get to it to program it to erase everything.

Well, does it say if the briefcase was locked. If the briefcase was handcuffed to Whit's arm, but the briefcase itself was unlocked, then Whit could've still had access to the computer.

Yes, but then what would the point of having the briefcase handcuffed to Whits hand. It would be pointless having the case handcuffed if someone could just open it and take the computer out.
