^ Not only that, in Mary Anne Saves the Day, it was mentioned that Mary Anne's mother came from Maryland. In the later books, she was from Idaho. Iowa

I pointed this out in the KIMCC section but:
the inconsistency in "holiday time" because that's the book Pamela first shows up. In LS it's like fall (September) and "Holiday Time" is set during December.

In Stacey and the Bad Girls, Stacey eats breakfast twice in the same morning. On page 6: But then, on page 9, after getting off the phone: Maybe her diabetes is so brittle she needs back-to-back breakfasts.

^ I never noticed that, candykane!
In Dawn and the Older Boy, Dawn mentions that Ben is in her class. Isn't he supposed to be in sixth (or seventh) grade, not eighth grade?

Dawn and the Older Boy Page 43:
"Ben, the oldest boy, is in my class, so he obviously didn't need a sitter."

That's a big inconsistency.

In #110 (Abby the Bad Sport), on page 101, Abby tells her mother she has to go do homework, but the book takes place during the summer.

In LS #58, Karen's Ski Trip, Karen knows how to do figure eights and does them while skating with Keegan. In LS #118, Karen's Figure Eight, she acts like she's never seen a figure eight before when Jillian demonstrates one, and then she doesn't learn to do one herself until almost the end of the book.

I keep forgetting to post that in "Welcome Back, Stacey," Kristy brings photos of Emily to the BSC sleepover. Kristy tells the BSC that some of the pictures show Emily getting ready to spend time with Watson's parents. I think this was the only time his dad was living?

I never noticed that one before. I guess I always assumed Watson's parents weren't living. Were they mentioned in other books as being deceased?

I don't remember a specific reference to them being dead. Kristy also mentioned a grandmother who wasn't Nannie very early on in the series who either wasn't mentioned again or was mentioned as dead later on. Maybe AMM and the ghosties spent all their time keeping the rest of the series consistent and forgot to fact-check their old people. Oh, wait....we have a very long thread on this board that proves me wrong.

Yeah, I believe she mentions her paternal grandmother in Kristy's Big Day (or sometime around then) as though she's alive, and I believe she implies in FF#1 that her paternal grandparents are dead.

In #120 Mary Anne and the Playground Fight, they got Kristy's visor wrong!
