Rampaging Rhino - S3-E15

Continuity mistake: Rhino smashes through a building, while carrying the Hulk, next to the bakery with the pink facade. In the next shot the building is fine and the bakery window is broken. Then when the Hulk smashes Rhino back through the same building, there's no damage at all and the building next to the bakery says Bank and has a green facade.

Pilot - S1-E1

Factual error: When Susan is sorting Ruth's things, she finds Gordon's iPhone wrapped in a newspaper from 1994 with her voice-mail to him and realizes he went back in time, where Ruth killed him and took the phone from his corpse. Even if the phone had been turned off, after 16 years idle, the battery would have died long ago, but we see the phone is on with her message waiting. (00:55:50 - 00:56:45)

Split Second - S2-E2
