Man with a Net - S3-E7

Other mistake: On the beginning, the butterfly Beasley calls the Pussycat Swallowtail is yellow. Later it's orange. Also, when Beasley holds the cage with the painted butterfly, you can see the wires making the puppet move.

Feed the Kitty - S2-E24

Other mistake: Mary Ann comes up to the Skipper while he's learning to juggle. If you look closely, the coconut bounces on the ground a couple of inches from his left foot. When Gilligan approaches, the coconut bounces off the bottom shelf. And in both times, the Skipper reacted in pain.

Forward March - S2-E22

Other mistake: When Gilligan and the ape are staring at each other, with the idea that the ape will stay hypnotized and ignore everything else, look closely at the ape's eyes. The actor in the suit glances twice and the Skipper and Professor as they pass.

Gilligan's Living Doll - S2-E21

Other mistake: When the Howells give their suggestions, if you look at the dark rectangle, you can see the word REJECT before it lights up. Likewise, when Ginger talks to it, you see TILT before it lights up.

The Big Gold Strike - S1-E10

Other mistake: As the girls are trying to land their catch, the Skipper comes by and starts to help. Although he was walking by, when he starts to help, his pants legs are already wet from previous takes.

The Secret of Gilligan's Island - S3-E25

Other mistake: At the end, the Professor and Skipper walk up on Gilligan, who's busy chiseling a message on a stone. Look carefully, because he's hitting the chisel, but the tip never touches the stone, and the 'E' in 'HOME SWEET HOME' (the message Gilligan is working on) is plainly visible.

Pass the Vegetables, Please - S3-E3

Other mistake: After Gilligan gets up to take the sand to Mary Ann, the camera closes in on the box lid. After it does, the picture goes into a freeze frame because the ripples in the water of the lagoon stop dead still for the few seconds until the dissolve into the next scene.
