Other mistake: In the credits of the movie, the creator of the original comic's name is misspelled as "Bob Macleod" when it should read "Bob McLeod."

Orphan Black (2013)
Other mistake: The URL seen on Siobhan's laptop (https://internet-search.comm7986/index.html) is obviously a fake URL.
3rd Nov 2017
Supergirl (2015)
Other mistake: During an argument, Maggie's father mentions the border wall being built to keep people from entering the country illegally. This is obviously a reference to the real-life presidency of Donald Trump, but within the show's continuity, his comment doesn't make sense: in "Resist", the penultimate episode of season two, it's revealed that President Olivia Marsdin is literally an alien from outer space, and earlier in the season in "Welcome to Earth", she signed an executive order offering aliens such as herself full citizenship if they so desired it. If she's that tolerant of extraterrestrials, it seems unlikely that she'd be so intolerant of foreign immigrants as to resort to such an extreme action in foreign policy like building a wall on the border.

Twin Peaks (2017)
Other mistake: When we first see Gordon aboard his jet, the shot of the jet from the outside is a flipped shot. Note the lettering on the right engine.
21st Jun 2017
Pretty Little Liars (2010)
In the Eye Abides the Heart - S7-E15
Other mistake: In this episode, and a few episodes afterwards, Aria's phone's battery is at 76% every single time she looks at her phone, until finally dropping to 70% in episode 17 of season 7.
6th Apr 2017
Bates Motel (2013)
Other mistake: When Norman and Madeleine are talking outside the Motel about Sam, the left side of the screen appears to be split down the middle after Norman says "Because you know it's safe to tell me", causing a weird effect on the chair that Madeleine is sitting in.
7th Jul 2016
Scream (2015)
Other mistake: When Deputy Dwayne is talking to Sheriff Miguel Acosta while Acosta pours himself a cup of coffee, he picks up the coffee jug, pours his coffee and puts the coffee jug back far more quickly than is humanly possible.
17th Jul 2012
Angel (1999)
Other mistake: Both times we see Lindsey shaving, once before his hand transplant and once after, his reflection in the bathroom mirror isn't in fact a reflection. He is wearing a bracelet on his left wrist, but in the mirror it is on his right wrist.
11th Jun 2012
The Avengers (2012)
Other mistake: The video game company NAMCO Bandai is misspelled twice as "NAMECO Bandai" in the end credits, although fixed in the home video version.
25th Mar 2012
Burke and Hare (2010)
Other mistake: When Burke & Hare chop down the tree to stop the coach, they hit the tree with their axes at chest height. When the coach approaches they have hardly made a dent in the tree and when they push to tip the tree over, it doesn't break at chest height, but the entire tree falls, arguably still fully intact.
27th Aug 2011
X-Men 3 (2006)
Other mistake: When Warren/Angel refuses the cure and spreads his wings, he is looking to the left of the screen at his father. In the reflection of Dr. Kavita Rao's glasses the shot of him is not reversed; he is still looking to the left of the screen when he should in fact be looking to the right. (00:33:00)
9th Jun 2011
Batman: Mask of the Phantasm (1993)
Other mistake: In the scene where Andrea is being sucked into the fan at the Gotham worlds fair, Batman rides in on his motorcycle. He turns into the fan to rescue her, but his cape is flapping in the opposite direction in which the fans are sucking.
10th Mar 2011
Buffy The Vampire Slayer (1997)
Bewitched, Bothered And Bewildered - S2-E16
Other mistake: Joyce tells Cordelia to grab some bandages for Xander from the bathroom upstairs. Joyce and Xander are in the kitchen and there is a small corridor that leads to the stairs, but Cordelia goes around the other way leading to the living room. Fair enough, Cordelia made a mistake. She isn't that bright. But she returns with the bandages coming back from the living room. Why come downstairs and then go All The Way around through the living room when she could have just walked down the small corridor?
19th Jan 2011
Buffy The Vampire Slayer (1997)
I Was Made To Love You - S5-E15
Other mistake: According to Buffy's watch, the first scene with her, Dawn and Joyce starts at 4:23 PM and ends at 4:24 PM. But the scene lasts much longer than that.
19th Nov 2010
Buffy The Vampire Slayer (1997)
Other mistake: At the beginning of the episode when Giles visits the archaeologists who have obtained the obelisk, it appears to be much too tall/wide to have fit through the door.
24th Oct 2010
Buffy The Vampire Slayer (1997)
Other mistake: Willow's computer beeps twice when her first email from Malcolm is received through before she is kidnapped by Fritz, but only beeps once when the second email is received.
20th Oct 2010
Buffy The Vampire Slayer (1997)
Lies My Parents Told Me - S7-E17
Other mistake: Robin uses the song that Spike's mother sang to him to provoke him into attacking him. The song is played on his computer through Apple's media program "iTunes". He clicks his computer's mouse to start the song, but when we see the monitor the cursor isn't placed on the Play button. Robin doesn't jostle the mouse when he presses it, it remains completely still on the desk. And the only way to play a song through iTunes using a single mouse-click is by clicking on the Play button.
30th Sep 2010
Buffy The Vampire Slayer (1997)
Other mistake: When The First (disguised as Eve) tells the Turok-Han to kill everybody except Buffy, it runs past her towards the exit of the crypt. The First then says, "Well, alone again", turns to face Spike and transforms into Buffy. In this shot, the Turok-Han can be seen still leaving the crypt, even though it had plenty of time to reach the exit and was running towards it at full speed.
25th Aug 2010
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (2008)
Other mistake: Season 2, Episode 20: "To the Lighthouse" - In the flashbacks to the jungle, John is considerably younger. Sarah however, is not. Adults don't change nearly as much as a child would in the same time period, but this is a pretty big jump back in time. John is only a child in the flashbacks, putting Sarah in her mid to late 20s. Yet she still looks 35 and even has the exact same skin and facial structure.
2nd Jul 2010
Buffy The Vampire Slayer (1997)
Other mistake: At the end the library that was rigged with explosives blows up. But the school's main entrance and the clock tower blow up as well, even though they are not rigged with explosives.
