Phantom Strike - S5-E10

Continuity mistake: Several times we see the Legacy jet from the outside. The windows are square. When we see them from the inside, they are oval. As a matter of fact, no jet has square windows. That mistake was learned with the crash of a de Havilland Comet in 1954. It had square windows which concentrated the strain on the skin of the plane, causing it to fail and crash.

Joan of Arcadia picture

P.O.V. - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: When Adam gets angry at Joan in the art room because of the camera, his half-made sculpture is sitting on the desk. When he grabs his bag toward the end of the scene, he accidentally knocks it over, unbalancing it. But in the next shot it's balanced again, then suddenly it's unbalanced. This happens several times between shots, and can even be seen in one shot before he knocks it over.
