Quick Before It Sinks - S2-E6

Revealing mistake: As the Professor and Skipper get the test vehicle rocking faster, there are a few times that the metal poles built into the table legs to slide it is visible. Then as Gilligan slides on the table, the channels the poles slid along are visible, and it's obvious that the figure flying out into the men's arms is a dummy.

Allergy Time - S2-E28

Revealing mistake: When Skipper is sneezing after Gilligan showered, he turns towards the wardrobe. As he sneezes, in a "blink and you miss it" moment, the line pulling up the bottom of the green cloth is momentarily visible, pulling from the upper right corner of the screen.

Revealing mistake: When the Professor comes over to the Robot to ask "How would you like to do us a favor?", look closely at the mesh like part of the Robot's "face", just left of the vertical black bar. You can see the Robot actor's eye blinking and looking around. When he nods, you can see the outline of the actor's head.

Revealing mistake: After the Skipper tosses the sail into the water, look at the background. On the right side of the shot, the bottom of the backdrop is easily seen, showing this scene is filmed in a huge water tank set.
