Fear Burns Down to Ashes - S4-E15

Continuity mistake: Rev Bem returns for this episode, however the costume department seems to have forgotten all the changes his character went through in S3 "What Happens to a Rev Deferred?" His face is distinctly more Magog than it should be, and his hands have reverted back into clawed fingers.

Suggested correction: "Wirewolf" originally aired on October 28, 2000 while "Revenge of the Monsters" originally aired on November 14, 2000. In the context of the show, there's no continuity mistake. When they reordered the show and put them into Season 1 and Season 2, the first 7 episodes of season 2 are out of order (according to original air date). For example, s02e01 aired after s01e14.

Even though "Revenge of the Monsters" aired on November 14, 2000, and as a season one episode, the episode "Wirewolf" is a Season two episode so it still constitutes as a continuity error.

No. You missed the point completely. "Wirewolf" was produced BEFORE (production code 011) "Revenge of the Monsters" (production code 045). Therefore, there is no continuity error for the show. The order of the episodes were then later changed, which isn't the fault of the show. If you watch the episodes in order they were produced instead of the order they're listed in IMDB, there isn't a mistake.

Good for the Soul - S1-E5

Continuity mistake: Elisabeth Shue is talking to Homelander by her car. As she gets her baby out of the car, she says "can we please just talk later" and has a muslin hanging over her right shoulder, turns around, and from the reverse angle the muslin is bundled up in front of her, not over her shoulder at all. Then the angle changes again and it's back where it was before.

Down Down Down - S1-E3

Continuity mistake: In her rooftop fight with Tommy, Batwoman opens with a batarang, then sends him face down kicking him from behind. They wrestle some, and the railgun goes off once. In a wide shot when she punches him in the midsection a few times while he is trapped in an armlock, you can see the gun on the ground. He had it in hand in the previous shot and is still in his possession later. (00:35:00)

Maps and Legends - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: When Lieutenant Narissa Rizzo appears in holo form in the last scene of the episode, the two pins of her rank on her right breast initially are attached together (as if the two magnets have been placed too close together and ended up being pulled to one another). During the first part of the scene they go back and forth between being joined and separated. (00:40:45)
