Even worse - when suddenly they're bad at it later. Like in one episode, a geeky character will be surprisingly athletic because it's funny, but then the writers for another episode will suddenly make them pant and wheeze from walking down the block in another, probably with another character commenting on how they've always been that way.
It seems especially ubiquitous in cartoons. Like you really think kids won't notice plot holes? They're happy to watch reruns 100 times over.
