Goofs

When Billy goes to see Veronica while drunk, she is wearing a wedding ring in some shots.

During the academic decathlon, when Billy pulls his shoe out of the liquid nitrogen after freezing it, it is a right shoe but he is still wearing his right shoe.

The smiley face on Billy's chest disappears when he approaches the penguin.

The eyes in Billy's grade chart reappear after being poked out.

The snowman that Billy makes in the first grade is clearly not the same snowman that Ms. Lippy gives to Billy before he gets on the bus after school.

When Billy is dialing the phone to call the guy he picked on in high school, a phone can be heard ringing.

This is part of the song being played.

In the quiz show, Billy recites the "To Be or Not To Be" soliloquy from Hamlet with a skull in hand. Hamlet doesn't recite that soliloquy with a skull in hand. He only speaks with a skull in hand in the grave-digger scene at the end of the play.

However, the skull was probably just a prop as part of Hamlet's costume because that is how people know Hamlet.

When the kids come to Max's house, a shadow can be seen passing behind him in the hallway.

This is from a deleted scene when one of the kids dresses up in Max's old wrestling costume and runs out on the lawn.

When the O'Doyle family station wagon skids off of the road toward the edge of the cliff, you can briefly see a female mannequin in the front passenger seat of the car.

When Principal Anderson is talking to the kids at his doorstep, its cuts to the kids outside sitting on his lawn and then back to Principal Anderson. If you look in his house, you can see the shadow of one of the cast members running to the left.

Carl tells Billy & Veronica that Eric just made threats & made a "weasel laugh." But during the previous scene we hear Eric make the threats, but he never laughs.

When Eric is confronting Principal Anderson and says this is an issue from 1983, as he flips through the pages throughout the scene, you can clearly see a picture of Bret 'The Hitman' Heart in the bottom right hand corner in the magazine. Bret Hart came into mainstream wrestling much later than 1983.

When Billy's Trans Am pulls up to the high school, we hear the engine being switched off. But the "shaker" in the hood is still shaking, meaning that the car is still running.

When Jack is spraying a boy with a hose at one of Billy's "graduation" parties, you can hear the boy talking but his lips aren't moving.

When Billy is standing at the bus stop, you can hear the sounds of children on the bus that passes, but there are clearly no passengers on the bus.

When Billy is dialing his classmate Danny McGrath, the sounds of the buttons beeping does not match up with his fingers. Also, we hear the sounds of the phone ringing long before Billy is even finished dialing.

There are always pool parties after each class achievement. But Billy's "school career" also passes through the seasons fall and winter (snowman in a craft lesson, Valentine's Day when Billy does 3rd Grade). It would be too cold for a pool party - it always seems to be summer.

The entire six-month process of Billy repeating grades one though twelve could have been compressed into a single day if he went and did a GED exam.

Billy repeating grades 1-12 is pointless as he only spends two weeks in each grade, during which he would learn next to nothing.

Veronica lists the prime numbers in third grade when Billy visits the classroom. This list is missing the number 2, which is a prime number, and includes 1, which is not.

When Eric blackmails Principal Anderson he says he has his copy of "Wrestling World Magazine" but the magazine he holds actually says World Wrestling Magazine.

If the decathlon was in one day, when Billy and Eric make pies in a home ec class. Eric's pie is on fire and he suddenly catches on fire, he would've suffered severe burns and would need medical attention or he would've died if he was burning too long. He looked fine when he raced against Billy in track in the next scene.
