The Corbomite Maneuver - S1-E11

Revealing mistake: In Kirk's quarters, as he touches the desk top comm panel, it noticeably slides a little rather than being fixed in place.

Movie Nut

Miri - S1-E9

Revealing mistake: After Kirk stuns Louise and she falls to the floor, watch her abdomen. She tries not to move, but it's just barely moving.

Movie Nut

Miri - S1-E9

Revealing mistake: As McCoy kneels by the tricycle in the town square, an unknown person attacks him. As they roll on the ground, and as he raises up facing the others, the stunt double is easily recognized.

Movie Nut

The Enemy Within - S1-E6

Revealing mistake: As the Enterprise passes by the camera in the opening, as Kirk does the Log entry monologue, it's easy to tell where the studio lighting was positioned.

Movie Nut

Where No Man Has Gone Before - S1-E4

Revealing mistake: The readers in Sick Bay are supposed to be display screens, a type of CRT, for reading material. Mitchell turns his off to rest, but the words are still plainly visible.

Movie Nut

The Changeling - S2-E3

Revealing mistake: A number of times through the episode, the wire holding Nomad up and moving it around is visible. Example: When Nomad first moves off the transporter pad, look directly above it; the black wire can be seen in front on the light over the pad.

Movie Nut

Who Mourns for Adonais? - S2-E2

Revealing mistake: As Apollo's head and neck appear on the screen, the neck of the black T-shirt used to mask his body is easily seen, and his shoulders are faintly visible.

Movie Nut

A Piece of the Action - S2-E17

Revealing mistake: As Kirk and Spock take off in the car, the painted backdrop is recognizable between the buildings. There is a vertical edge to it about three feet away from the edge of the auto repair building.

Movie Nut

Balance of Terror - S1-E15

Revealing mistake: As the Romulan ship is tilted, the dust and debris fall straight down, rather than diagonally toward the wall and floor joint.

Movie Nut

The Man Trap - S1-E2

Revealing mistake: On the planet, as Kirk and Spock try to get to Professor Crater, Crater fires at and destroys the center support of the arch. As it settles, the parts are clearly hollow. (00:34:21)

Movie Nut

The Man Trap - S1-E2

Revealing mistake: In the corridor, as Sulu touches the face of the dead crewman, the man's eyelids flutter. (00:30:15)

Movie Nut

What Are Little Girls Made Of? - S1-E8

Revealing mistake: As the big android holds Kirk up by the wall, you can see the skin wig worn by the actor wrinkle up.

Movie Nut

Requiem for Methuselah - S3-E19

Revealing mistake: As Kirk pulls the shroud away from the Rayna duplicate, look closely at the part of her head just below her left ear. The bald cap she wore to conceal her hair and give her an unfinished look.

Movie Nut

A Taste of Armageddon - S1-E24

Revealing mistake: It is easy to tell where the matte painting and live action area meet when Fox and the assistant appear.

Movie Nut

The Doomsday Machine - S2-E6

Revealing mistake: While Kirk watches, the machine fires at the Enterprise. As Spock is knocked backwards, watch his hands as he goes forward. They automatically go into a certain, almost practiced position. Then a moment later, the Communications officer is reporting to Spock. As she does, another shot hits the ship. She and just about all the crew react to the jolt a second before the camera and lighting crews simulate the hit. (00:26:40)

Movie Nut

The Doomsday Machine - S2-E6

Revealing mistake: Accounting for some effects being re-done by modern digital formatting, when the Enterprise approaches the drifting Constellation, as it rotates, you can see a star pass through the solid part of the Constellation's saucer.

Movie Nut

Let That Be Your Last Battlefield - S3-E15

Revealing mistake: After Kirk shuts down the self destruct, he asks Spock if the ship is heading for Arianas. At one point in the dialog, you can see the display for the self destruct sequence is still on the screen, just not lit up.

Movie Nut

Let That Be Your Last Battlefield - S3-E15

Revealing mistake: When the camera is close up on Beal's face, you can see a bit of real flesh color where the black and the white greasepaint used didn't quite match up.

Movie Nut

The Enemy Within - S1-E6

Revealing mistake: When the "pleasant" Kirk and Spock go down to the engineering level to get the "animal" Kirk, they split up and "pleasant" Kirk meets the "animal" face to face. As he steps out from behind a screen type wall, you can see that the "animal" Kirk is really Shatner's stunt double helping to fill the double role. This can also be told by the size difference when the two are close together and the shot is from behind the double.
