==Goofs==
===The Greatest Story Ever Holed===
*Before Cletus' house is sucked up by the hole, you can see that the house is a double decker one (as you see that there is a window in the top of the house). But as the hole sucked it in, the hole didn't suck the second floor and the things in the second floor.
*Cletus appears to be bigger than his house.
*When Lisa's tears are being sucked in, the hole is in front of red railings. But in the next scene, it is floating in the mid-air.
*When the Simpsons are eating breakfast, they are in their pajamas. But when they open the door, they are in their trademark outfits.
*The black hole is too big for Lisa to get so close to it. This could have been done on purpose so the black hole would be visible.
*When the Simpson family is standing in front of the house, the door is open, but when the house is sucked by the blackhole, the door closes by itself.
===Unnormal Activity===
*In Unnormal Activity, Devil Moe says that Marge gets 30 years (2012-30=1982). In there Marge is just a young child, but in Bart & Homer's Excellent Adventure she's already in high school. Hence the past time year Bart travelled to 1974.
*Milhouse is seen sleeping in Bart's Room and Lisa's Room at the same time (Camera 6 and Camera 7). This can show how Milhouse is best friends with Bart and is in love with Lisa.
*When Marge ran out of her room after hearing a loud noise she is barefoot, but when she is seen in the living room she is wearing her slippers.
===Bart & Homer's Excellent Adventure===
*When Homer shows all the Historical Homers, Two Head Homer, Punk Homer, Egyptian Slave Homer and Washington Homer are not on the line of Homers. But later they appear (maybe young Homer brought them after he brought the other Homers).
*Just after Bart leaves the comic book store, Homer from 1974 is seen walking into a store next door.
*Artie Ziff looks different than in his previous appearance in Take My Life, Please.
*Another Plot Hole: Homer and Marge are apparently older than they look. Bart goes back to 1974 when they were still in high school. If this were the case, then they would be in their 50's in the present. (But again, this episode is non-canon and they don't age anyway.)
*Marge says that 20 years ago, she would have chosen love when she realized that Homer was the one for her all along. However, 1994 is 20 years after 1974, and it is 2012, 38 years later.
*As Homer and Marge go to investigate a loud crash, Homer doesn't go through the same door as Marge, it seems he goes through an imaginary door that's on the other side of the mirrors and drawers. There is only one door that leads to the master bedroom usually.
