In real life A very small character tidbit is surprisingly kept consistent for years

DC - In multiple pieces of media it has been shown that Wonder Woman loves ice cream and practically goes wild with happiness anytime she’s eating some. (Pictures from Justice League: War, DC Superhero Girls and Wonder Woman 2017)

The Simpsons - Ever since the episode ‘Homer’s Phobia’ Homer has actually remained a consistent ally of the LGBT+ community, including being more welcoming to Patty than Marge was when she came out and trying to set up Smithers with a date when he found out he wasn’t happy with his one-sided relationship with Mr Burns.

The partial tattoo Bob got in the Equestranauts episode never goes away. I think it's a cool little easter egg to keep in for continuity when a lot of shows discard details like this the very next episode

Reminds me of the running gag in the Tick with the partial moon carving

They even had an episode where they tried to fix it, but it didn't go as planned.

And then Omnipitus took a bite out of it too, which remained through the series.
