Th dancing one really isn’t a mistake. He said he doesn’t dance not that he can’t. And as the show progressed & Sheldon evolved, he did a lot of things he refused to do before. Especially for Amy.

Hey mojo ... sheldon was explaining how it would be impossible for lois to survive at the speed she was dropping and superman to physically catch her thus " sliced 3 pieces ", not the actual scene in the so this mistake was actually yours lol

You left out what I thought was the most glaring error in the series. That was on the second episode where Bob Newhart guest starred as "Professor Proton". Sheldon was jealous of him working with Leonard, so to show them up, he enlisted Bill Nye to help him with a project. This sparked some hilarious dialogue between Nye and Newhart. However, there was one thing the writers overlooked. Remember how Sheldon always needled Howard for being an engineer, and for not having a PhD.? Bill Nye only has a bachelor's degree -- in engineering!

The nice thing about these errors for me is that I don’t see them. I’m engrossed with the show which is a compliment to the show.

The “don’t dance” isn’t a mistake. He hates dancing so no matter what he would never want to dance. Ms Mojo is too literal on this point.

I could watch Sheldon fold all day. I love how dramatic he is doing it

[andrewjones]

This will happen a lot when a show has several writers who haven't watched all of it.

[whatashameofthat]

also at the beginning of the show Leonard says they can't have cats because of Sheldon's asthma, but it's Leonard who ends up being asthmatic. and in one episode Sheldon says Leonard is a good room mate becaue he doesn't make noise at night and a season or two later Leonard has a procedure because he snores.

[andrewjones]

In s2 e5, The Euclid Alternative in 2008, Sheldon tries to learn to drive. In s3 e22, The Staircase Implementation, which is set in 2003, Sheldon tells Leonard that he can drive.

If I remember correctly, there's an episode where Sheldon refers to koalas as bears. Koalas aren't bears. They are marsupials and are, therefore, NOT bears

I noticed a few mistakes in The Big Bang Theory:

In the episode where they find the Lord of the Rings ring, there's one bit where they all squat down to pick something up. But in another episode, Sheldon tells Amy he can only squat a tiny bit.

There's also a mistake with Fun With Flags, in one episode Sheldon finds out about the two country's having the same flag by coincidence after he started Fun With Flags but in a later episode he said that he told Penny that fact and she said find someone who cares so he started Fun with Flags.

There's also a mistake with Leonard's snoring, in one episode, Penny says he doesn't snore but in a later episode he gets an operation to stop his snoring.

[williammccollom]

Sheldon saying he doesn't dance is not the same as him not knowing how.

[jimedwards]

What about the dart board? I remember seeing 18 at the top for a string of episodes. I don't remember which season. It was fixed eventually to 20 at the top.

[bfallen]

I'm sure that someone pointed this out already, that in S1E2 14 minutes in, Sheldon knocks on Penny's door normally.
And he doesn't say her name.
I believe this happens only once in the series. Except when he does it on purpose to deceive Amy.

[samkegu]

Hey! I actually noticed a mistake Sheldon did about flags but I don't think anybody saw it. In ep14 of season 5, Sheldon says : "Speaking of cowboys, do you know what country has not one but two cows on its flag? The tiny landlocked nation of Andorra." But it's actually wrong. The flag of Andorra is 3 vertical stripes of color, blue, yellow and red with some kind of blazon in the center(🇦🇩). However a flag with 2 red cows and a yellow background does exist, and not so far from Andorra. It's the flag of Bearn, a former gascony kingdom in the pyrenees now belonging to France in the region of the Pyrénées-Atlantiques. You really have to live in the south west of France to know about all that. Sorry Sheldon.

[colethetroll]

The Superman one isn't a mistake. Sheldon said that the scene was scientifically inaccurate, so he described what should have realistically happened.

[piffny]

7:45 he said he doesn't he never said he couldn't

[JohnJacksonJohnson]

@8:44, plus, he mentions he was put through "cotillion" as a child, leading to his ability to waltz.

[Bazerk]

The “resticted” was a joke with the crew and prop department. One of the crew members was making a list for the prop department and he wrote resticted area door magnate. When my supervisor heard about it we asked him how to spell restricted and he spelt out “resticted” so we kept it like that to tease him.

Well that bob vs wiate (I've no idea how it's spelt, took a guess) could be explained as wiate being the surname and bob being the forename, it could've been the shows hint at penny's last name (prior to hofsteader)
