Other mistake: As Troi describes her idea of "real" chocolate to the computer, it interrupts her with a warning about the nutritional value of her request. The reply is in two parts, and between the parts, you hear the intake of breath, something no computer would do.

Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987)
Other mistake: While Riker looks over Data's shoulder, the make up on Data's eyebrows is incomplete. The left is lighter, the right is darker.

Tank Girl (1995)
Other mistake: The first time Rebecca gets Keslee's arm stuck, he wipes his head with his hand, but she goes to punch him, her hand passes through the hologram. His hand should have gone through as well. Also, when she shoots the bucket at the end, it dumps water on him, and he coughs, though the water shouldn't have bothered him.

Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987)
Other mistake: In this episode, in Riker's memory, the encounter between him and Quinn is re-lived. As Quinn starts to attack Riker, you can see Riker's stunt double's face, and tell that it's Quinn's stunt double, as the hair is smooth, not styled. Also, Riker is a few inches taller than Quinn, but in the onset of the attack, they're equal heights.

Star Trek (1966)
Other mistake: As Kirk and party duel against the Klingons, there's a heavy-looking round conduit on the wall right before the turbolift door that gets knocked down so it stands as a big flower pot. A moment later, it's back in position.
20th Apr 2019
Gilligan's Island (1964)
Other mistake: The Communal Hut is built in the clearing, and has a dirt floor. When Skipper and Gilligan check outside, it's floating in the lagoon. But that suggests it had a wooden floor.

The Cat in the Hat (2003)
Other mistake: While signing the contract, when Conrad is supposed to "sniff this", he moves to his position a second before the Cat says his line and bobs Conrad's head down.

Star Trek (1966)
The Immunity Syndrome - S2-E18
Other mistake: As McCoy stands by the hangar deck doors, the plaque over the pressure controls has "hangar" misspelled. It says "hanger".
30th Jan 2019
Star Trek (1966)
Other mistake: When Norman goes to the second panel in Auxiliary Control, there is clicking when he turns his right hand, but there is no knob, just a blinking light.
28th Jan 2019
Star Trek (1966)
Other mistake: When the Planet Killer hits the Enterprise, the ship lurches 45° to starboard, and the crew fall accordingly. However, the chairs, except for the communications station, stay in place.

The Twilight Zone (1959)
Other mistake: Old Ben duplicates Jenny so she can accompany him to his home planet. As he can turn into anything, he should be able to approximate her height. When the now twins walk out, the girl on the right is a couple of inches taller than the girl on the left. Not only that, but her hair is noticeably darker.

M*A*S*H (1972)
Other mistake: In all the opening sequence of each episode, a group of people are waiting on the pad to get the wounded off the choppers. If you look closely as the group goes to move, the character Mulcahy is there, but it's George Morgan, who played the role in the pilot episode. From the third episode on, it was played by William Christopher, so it's the wrong actor for all the other episodes.

The Fairly OddParents (2001)
The Boss of Me/He Poofs, He Scores! - S7-E14
Other mistake: In "The Boss Of Me", when the indestructible pencil appears, as it slowly rotates, the name "everleady" is already written in red on the side. Then Timmy's dad says "I'll call it the Everleady" as if he's created the name.
18th Dec 2018
M*A*S*H (1972)
Other mistake: When the Colonel Griswald of the 1st Cavalry goes to leave camp, the Jeep he gets in is marked "4077 MASH" on the bumper instead of 1st Cav.

M*A*S*H (1972)
Other mistake: Hawkeye reads the propaganda flyer, he says. "Give yourselves up, you can't win. Douglas MacArthur." Trouble is, the papers are all advertising for a flying company called Ace Eli.

Blazing Saddles (1974)
Other mistake: When the Western fight breaks into the dance movie set, the background of the Western movie is seen, even though it was all several hundred feet away, on an outdoor set.
Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.
Suggested correction: This is entirely in keeping with the "reveal of the movie within a movie.
Of that, there's no question. I was pointing out that the sets for both movies were a distance apart...the Western backdrop should not have been seen.

Space: 1999 (1975)
Other mistake: As the camera pans around to look in the cockpit, the wound on Koenig's head is easily seen as a bad blending job. The edges of the prosthetic are visible.
27th Mar 2018
Space: 1999 (1975)
Other mistake: In the beginning, the Eagle was moving away from the alien planet, and as such, should have crash landed facing away from the planet. However, it was facing the direction it came from. If it traveled a fairly straight line, (and the trajectory suggests it did) then it should have crashed with the rear end facing the planet.
21st Mar 2018
Space: 1999 (1975)
Other mistake: Every time someone calls, either on the comlinks, or the wall panels, there always appears to be a blank wall immediately behind the person on screen, even when the camera cuts to the person calling.
13th Mar 2018
Dinosaurs (1991)
Other mistake: As Early and Roy watch the time clock waiting for the lunch whistle, the clock reads 11:56 a.m. It then jumps to 12 noon, bypassing four minutes.
